Rallies in support of the army

Author: Daily Times

Sir: Rallies in support of the army reminds me of Syed Munawar Hassan who said that martyrs are not those (Pakistani soldiers) who helped the US in the war against terrorism, but those who had fought against the US (the militants). No one stood up against the Jamaat and in support of the army by staging rallies. People who are infuriated today, what made them remain silent on such a harsh critique against the army then? Perhaps someone who is in touch with the public mood can explain this anomaly.
