General Ashfaq Pervez Kayani

Pakistan's army chief has said a memo accusing the military of plotting a coup and planning removal of top Military leadership with help from Washington, and led to the resignation of Islamabad's ambassador to Washington, was a conspiracy against Army and Pakistan to hurt national security, a local newspapers said.

General Ashfaq Kayani, arguably the most powerful man in Pakistan, made the remarks in a statement filed to the Supreme Court, which is examining a petition demanding an investigation into who was behind the memo. Pakistan's envoy to the United States, Husain Haqqani, denied involvement in the memo but resigned over the controversy, which could undermine the deeply unpopular Zardari if he is implicated.

Local newspapers quoted Kayani as saying the memo "has an impact on national security" and "unsuccessfully attempts to lower the morale of the Pakistan army."

Businessman Mansoor Ijaz, writing in a column in the Financial Times on October 10, said a senior Pakistani diplomat had asked that a memo be  delivered to the Pentagon with a plea for USZ help to stave off a military coup in the days after the raid that killed Al-CIA-Da leader Osama bin Laden for the 8th time in the last 10 years, in May. Ijaz later identified the diplomat as Haqqani.

No evidence has emerged that the military was plotting a coup and the Pentagon Terrorist Safe Havens have at the time dismissed the memo as not credible.

American Puppet Zardari is in Dubai for so called medical treatment that raised speculation he would resign. He is due to return to Pakistan, where he will face one of the biggest challenges of his career.

Tensions between Pakistan's civilian government and military have bedeviled the nuclear-armed South Asian country for almost its entire existence, with the military ruling the country for more than half of its 64-year history after a series of coups.

Haqqani's resignation was seen by many analysts as further weakening the civilian government, which is already beset by allegations of corruption, incompetence and slavery of USZ Zionists. The army seems to want investigators to move quickly to get to the bottom of what has been dubbed "memogate."

"I also recommended to the prime minister that time was of the essence and that the earlier we knew the truth the better it would be to address the negative fallout for the country", The News quoted Kayani as saying.

Pakistan is also facing turbulence on the diplomatic front. Relations with strategic backstabber ally the United States of Zionism, a source of billions of dollars of losses to Pakistan's economy under the charade of war on terror as well as the financier of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan insurgency which has jointly killed with USZ Terrorist Drones, more than 100,000 Pakistani civilians and military men, are at the lowest ever point in Pakistan's history. The latest crisis in ties erupted after a November 26 NATO cross-border Terrorist Air attack in defense of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan insurgents rescuing them from Pakistan Army and in turn, martyring 26 Pakistani soldiers.
