Unless such reforms are undertaken, there would continue to be repeat of the situations like Kosovo and Syria giving chance to the strong nations to unilaterally use force against the weak and continue to misuse the humanitarian intervention and responsibility to protect as a smoke screen for furthering their own agendas.

International actors have notably regarded contribution of my client NGO ‘HRW’ due to its accuracy of describing the facts.

How the concept of War has evolved from Traditional and Conventional Warfare to modern day new concept of ‘New War’ where wars have almost become organised violence backed by ‘sugar-coated’ instrumental justifications of weak ideologies

conduct, and political engagement, focusing on civil-military relations and the 'Just War Theory' within a constitutional
context. The main aim was to identify the political interventionism of the Pakistani Generals, which led to untangling
the Gordian knot of governance, investigating rhetorically who governs Pakistan as General Musharraf insisted that
"we" have a role to play. Kohn sees the ethos becomes different when they (the generals) talk about 'we' as separated
from society because they see themselves as distinct morally. Therefore, the study as a novel contribution expands
beyond normative military ethics to the nationalist ethos, reviewing the classic view of Janowitz, which identifies a
professional soldier above politics.
The top theme of the study is "absolute control," where the military acts beyond the constitutional domain, enabling
generals to govern through martial laws or hybrid and controlled democracies. General Musharraf defended these
actions to save Pakistan from failing as a state. Some participants justified these interventions as justa causa and Jihad
against corrupt politicians. However, the research rebuts their claims through just war theory and Coleman's ethical
dilemma and integrity tests on Musharraf and his peers, triggering the debate for new research on whether Kargil was
a just war. However, the findings affirm the 1999 coup as a social reaction acknowledging the Army's enduring
influence over civilians, backing or creating political parties for control. Praetorian armies do not aspire to fight or
win wars. However, the Pakistani military is in a perpetual war against terrorism, yet they repeatedly shift between
Praetorian Guardians and Moderators, which defines Pakistan as a contemporary Praetorian State. Patriotic populism
promotes Praetorianism as a pivotal social contract of 'militarisation,' perpetuating political interventionism to counter
civilian Kakistocracy. I recommend quantifying militarisation as a comparative study.
