Title: Superficial and tinted view
Review: A glimpse of this author's credibility in his own words. Read the following statement made by the author in "Opinion" column in JANG - THE NEWS newspaper."Nobody, myself least of all, would ever have thought of Pervaiz Musharraf as a coup leader. Not in a thousand years. "( Article: Exit of another government / Author: Brian Cloughley / Newspaper: JANG - The news / Date: Thursday October 14, 1999 )For a person who wrote a book on Pakistani Army, the author should have understood the Pakistani Army better. To understand Pakistani Army (or any institution for that matter), understanding of its leaders is vital.If the author understood Pakistani Army and its generals, then he lied in the JANG Article. -- OR -- If he did not understand the Army and its generals (as he wrote in the Jang Article), his entire book is superficial and redundant.Bottomline -- the author is capable of lying. So, go figure!
