The people of Pakistan have always faced with the paradoxical
national security policy. It has also remained a mind boggling
for the security policy makers in Pakistan. They have failed to
engineer a unanimously accepted national security policy so as
to establish a balance between the security of Pakistan and
security of its citizens. While framing security policy the
strategists in different eras have underestimated the balance
between the external and internal security threats to Pakistan
and its citizens. Extremism in shaping security policy in either
form is dangerous for the solidarity and survival of the nation.
The recent establishment of military courts under 21
st
Constitutional amendment and accentuation on external security
has severe futuristic repercussions. Instead of relying on one
extreme form or the other form of security, the government with
the consensus of all political and constitutional institutions
needs to designs a balanced national security doctrine to ensure
both the security of the country and its citizens as well.
