I rather think his wardi-bro jernails will ask him to take voluntary retirement and enjoy life running a Papa John's empire in London.
It's interesting you raise this point. All thru their history whenever some general of Fauji Foundation has launched a coup against the civilian government he's been succeeded by another general in an internal coup.
Exceptions are Z.A. Bhutto succeeding Yahya Khan & BB succeeding Zia. Both were under exceptional circumstances. Post Musharraf it has been a system of hybrid regimes mostly due to western disapproval & quite obviously sanctions.
So why am I bringing in their history here ? I'm of the belief , Munir Maamu's goose is cooked. By choosing to attack India he's mounted a tiger. Such bravados can only end in a coup. He can't overthrow the civilian government for they're hand in glove with him.
However ambitious subordinates from Fauji Foundation may not be with him even if outwardly they pretend to be so. After all irrespective their public display of support , deep down their worst fears have come true with the Kirana Hill strike , the others across their bases in Paxtan notwithstanding for the importance of Fauji Foundation lies in their possession & control of nukes.
You take that away & they're both toothless & naked. IMO , this opinion would also be shared by the Paxtani elite not restricted to their political class.
So what's the prognosis ? I believe it's this churn internally within Fauji Foundation & among the elites which will play out in the coming months. This Paxtani elite or sections of them could well be behind such coup attempts egging the principal actors in Fauji Foundation behind the scenes. The more Paxtan sinks economically , the more their internal security deteriorates the more pressure mounts on Munir Maamu to step down.
If I'm not mistaken he'd once again try to extricate himself from this difficult position by staging another outrage in India. The last time he did so in Pulwama was to rally the nation behind him . This time he does so would be for pure survival & I don't mean clinging on to his chair here. I believe there's a very real danger to his life.
Just to jog the memory of you guys , Ayub made Yahya the CoAS & when his popularity started declining after 10 + years in power , he was asked by Yahya to step down . Left with no support as Yahya was the CoAS & had the command & support of the PA , Ayub resigned & Yahya took over.
Zia who realised the blunder Ayub committed didn't relinquish his post as CoAS as long as he continued as the dictator of Paxtan . However his 10 year + reign was seen by Fauji Foundation as him overstaying his visit. He was asked to quit by Mirza Aslam Beg his second in command in PA along with other senior officers. He declined & had an "accident. " Beg succeeded him as CoAS & he ordered elections which saw BB coming to power.
Same situation a few decades later saw Musharaf quit under similar circumstances with the next in command taking over as CoAS . This time it was General Kayani.
Hence either Munir Maamu quits & goes away quietly into the sunset or he launches another war against India . Since he doesn't exactly come across as the brightest bulb in the showroom , as recent events have proven , the chances of him quitting is near zero. You can see where this is going now.
