Pakistan’s Military, Islam, and the Theatre of Authority | The Afghan Eye Podcast

Dela

In this episode of the Afghan Eye Podcast, host Sangar Paykhar is joined by Afghan Eye’s in-house historian Ahmed-Waleed Kakar to examine a revealing speech by Pakistan’s most powerful general, Asim Munir, delivered to a gathering of religious scholars in Islamabad. 

The discussion explores how Pakistan’s military leadership is increasingly instrumentalising Islam to assert political authority, delegitimise dissent, and externalise internal crises, particularly by shifting blame onto Afghanistan and the Pakistani Taliban.
