Despite today’s turbulence, it is unlikely that the military will intervene directly and taken over the reins of government, as it has on four occasions in Pakistan’s history. If, however, it is to orchestrate a regime change – which it might attempt to do – it will not likely disregard these groups and their powerbases by imposing their former commander on the political system.
虽然如今巴基斯坦处于混乱中，但是军方不大可能会像前4次一样直接干预接管政府。然而，如果军方想要更换政权，那么它将不大可能会无视上述这些团体以及它们的权力基本盘，强行把其前任领袖插入政治体系。如果军方想要在更换政权上发挥作用的话，那么它将从政坛中寻找新的政府首脑。巴基斯坦的政治舞台太拥挤，没有穆沙拉夫的容身之处。
