Several listeners condemned the comment, describing it as ineffective to the military’s role in maintaining peace and protecting citizens.
Some argued that the statement suggested a disregard for the rule of law, raising concerns about potential overreach by the armed forces. Others questioned its impact on public trust in the military, noting that such remarks could undermine confidence in their neutrality and professionalism.
