Not in favour of calls for immediate resignations whenever an accident takes place. These only satisfy our anger when we actually need systemic fixes. Unfortunately, PTI itself has contributed to this simplistic discourse that looks for immediate scalps before it came into power https://twitter.com/PTIofficial/status/806414987178733569

That doesn't mean the CEO should be totally off the hook. The investigation should fully look into possible neglect in terms of safety protocols and standards on part of PIA and CAA. And the CEO does need to be asked about that, and what was being done to address any such issues

As for the civ-mil lens and conf of interest argument that's again come up, that's the natural price. Jub her cheez main ghusain gay aur accountable bhee nahin hon gay to ppl are bound to raise such questions.

Can't evade this just by referring to PAF's relevant subject matter expertise and arguing that this criticism is unfair. Have to address the broader problem there

Lastly, one's legitimacy in feeling upset about the real or perceived unfairness of this criticism is proportional to whether one has been adequately critical of clear cut excesses by the mil or wrong appointments of (serving or retired) mil officers in various places

For that one doesn't even have to go very far. There have been several recent examples. Asim Bajwa's appointment w/o 2 years lapse, Qamar Bajwa's extension, Mush's trial and ISPR/GHQ's reaction to that, etc.

Jo log in cheezon peh nahin bolay, ya ulti seedhi defense day rahay thay, they should also stay quiet now and hold their piece, because frankly, it looks blatantly partisan.
