Arabs slam Pak stand on Yemen and Call on Pakistani Parliament to Fall in Line

Is this really the time and occasion for discussing all this? By sending our troops to be stationed in KSA and not getting involved in Yemen per se what we will lose? Where were these talks when KSA opened her doors for our workers in mid 70s and we sent them in tens of thousands? Why we did not protest when KSA arranged for funds to pay for our F-16s? Why we forgot about Palestinians and Kashmiris when KSA helped us when US and allies embargoed us following nuclear tests? Why we did not complain about Saudi funding for Wahabi religious schools when KSA cajoled Clinton for an honorable exit of Pakistani troops from Kargil? And where was Iran during all this time? Very sad to read such comments about a friend who has always helped us in our time of need.

Each and every instance you stated had an equal transactional offer from Pakistan, whether that was training their military or advising. Let's not forget, they let our workers in, which THEY themselves needed to build their glass towers. Or how about the black money funding the Dubai/Abu Dhabi real estate? (Didn't Qatar recently wanted a deal with Pakistan for Labour, since they bribed their sorry butt in to Fifa World Cup?) The very first capital inflows in Modern UAE were from Pakistan. So whatever they did for us, they got something, sometimes behind closed doors sometimes more open. I have no issues with Pakistan sending troops to remain in KSA, i was never against that. However, why should we be bombing Yemen? That's a separate sovereign nation that has no tussle with us. Do you think Pakistanis care whether there are houthis or yajooj majooj in Yemen? BTW, during the early days of the Arab spring, Pakistan did dispatch it's forces to Bahrain, who when panicked, came running to Pakistan army. Saudi's never did anything for us out of love or BS brotherhood, they always had it as a transaction, and make no mistake about it. What is pissing people like me off, is that Pakistan does not want to actively stage in their conflict, and then they make a stupid a** statement. I mean, where were Saudi forces in 1971 or 1980s or 1999? You think in a war with India, Saudis would send their forces? Perhaps it is time that Pakistan requested a couple of squadrons of Typhoons to be stationed in Sargodha. What do you suggest?
Libya's Gadafi helped Pakistan more than any of these idiots in Middle East did.

Kuwaiti daily launches scathing attack on Pakistan
Islamabad’s stand on Yemen crisis has exposed ‘blackmail masks’, editorial says

Manama: A Kuwaiti daily has come out with a stinging criticism of Pakistan, accusing its leaders of political blackmail and of failure to deliver on their pan-Islamic pledges, in an unprecedented attack.

“The Pakistani stance that was adopted through the parliament’s decision to remain neutral has dropped the blackmail masks about protecting sacred Islamic sites and sharing a common destiny with Muslim countries,” Ahmad Al Jarallah, the editor-in-chief of Al Seyassah daily, wrote in a front page editorial on Sunday.

“The slogans were merely political blackmailing tools and Pakistan thought it could use them to feed its crisis-hit economy. The Gulf countries were well aware since the beginning that the assistance it providing to Pakistan was merely to help quell the rampant extremism there and to help Islamabad overcome the poverty that has largely contributed to the emergence of terrorist groups that are a strategic threat to the Gulf and Islamic security,” Al Jarallah wrote.

The editor said that Pakistan had bowed to Iran amid concerns it would suffer a defeat at the hands of the Iranian religious leaders whom he accused of expertise in generating terrorist groups.

“There is no doubt that the Pakistani leadership has made a mistake by betting on Iran, and even its fear from Tehran is not grounded in reality since the Iranian claims about military and missile capabilities and the nuclear programme are not more than a game,” Al Jarallah said.

“The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries do not need Pakistan. In fact, Pakistan needs them in various areas. The GCC can defend its security, particularly following the alliance with other countries such as Jordan and Egypt. Pakistan needs to look carefully at the Iranian plots, especially its attempt to scare the world with its military capabilities.”

The Pakistani parliament last week voted not to take part in the Saudi Arabia-led military operation to defeat Al Houthi rebels and restore Yemen’s legitimate government.

Riyadh had reportedly wanted Islamabad to assist them with ground troops, fighter jets and naval ships.

Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, facing a major diplomatic challenge and torn between the wishes of traditional ally Saudi Arabia and neighbouring Iran that backs the Al Houthis in Yemen, opted to turn to parliament for a decision.

However, the lawmakers’ vote for non-participation in the military operations triggered anger and disappointment in the GCC.

On Friday, UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Dr Anwar Mohammad Gargash said the Pakistani parliament’s rejection of intervention in Yemen was “unexpected.”

“The Pakistani parliament’s decision about neutrality in the Yemeni conflict but genuine support for Saudi Arabia is paradoxical and unexpected from Islamabad,” he posted on his Twitter account.

“The Arabian Gulf is now going through a critical and crucial confrontation and its strategic security is at stake. Such moments of truth characterise genuine allies and distinguish them from those who are limited to media and statements,” he said.

In another tweet, he said that Pakistan was required to adopt a clear stance in the interests of its strategic relations with the Arabian Gulf states.

“Contradictory and ambiguous attitudes in such crucial issues have a high cost,” he said.

Amid the mounting criticism, Pakistan is expected to launch a damage-control campaign.

According to Pakistani daily The News, Islamabad will likely send a high-level delegation headed by Sartaj Aziz, Adviser to the Prime Minister on Foreign Affairs and National Security, to Saudi Arabia soon with a special message from Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to the Saudi leadership. The decision is expected to be announced on Monday.

China doesn't need Pakistani labour or needs Pakistan to fight our battle's and wars.:coffee:

I see the whole Islamic Ummah thing as an issue of identity does one put his nation first or his faith first. I believe the majority of the people would put their nation first. I don't know about the majority view on this issue in Pakistan.

So at least we are safe from being tested from China sighhhhh

who cares about Ummah there is no Ummmah and no one gives crap about ummah, I am thinking like a man...to keep your words...when someone keeps helping you rest assure one day he will ask for your help, either you are beghairat and just kept taking or be a man of your promise, and by the way we heard about this promise day in and day out form each and every Pakistani...until two weeks ago.

Kuwaiti daily launches scathing attack on Pakistan
Islamabad’s stand on Yemen crisis has exposed ‘blackmail masks’, editorial says

Manama: A Kuwaiti daily has come out with a stinging criticism of Pakistan, accusing its leaders of political blackmail and of failure to deliver on their pan-Islamic pledges, in an unprecedented attack.

Have we made those requests? and if we did, were those rejected or went unanswered? When we needed arms and ammo in 1971, the Saudis asked us to leave behind what was needed by the KSA forces in an event of emergency and take the remaining. What else could they do? No, they'll not fight for us of-course, and frankly, do you really want Saudi forces to fight alongside your highly professional and trained forces? I don't think so.
 
.
Pakistan would have done it if it wasnt for US pressure not to send troops. US is leaving Saudis and aligning herself with Iran. US knowingly created this chaos in Yemen and left mountains of weapons for them to use. US's next target is Saudia Arabia and Pakistan staying out of it will make it very easy.
 
.
you took took and took from Saudis for 40 years...as recent as last years but then you werent sure whether you will be Bakhshu or not and now a years later you decide not to.

actually thats how brothers are in real life too so it wont be a big surprise.

And in return aren't we giving them nuclear cover to DEFEND? But only for the defense of saudi arabia and still pakistan is keeping its words but saudia arabia wants us to join in its AGGRESSION. Can't you see the difference my friend?

oh man I can see the difference very clearly, the statements that came from Pakistan as far as 6 months ago and statements coming out now, a clear difference. Which is fine by me I am no lovers of Saudis, but my problem is Pakistan is doing it under US pressure...their next target is Saudia Arabia..would you want to see ISIS reaching Saudia and doing what they did in Iraq and Syria. think a bit far not just yemen.
 
.
Why saudia was poking its nose where it did not belong (syria)? which is iran's backyard for a very long time. You hurt my back I hurt yours. Simple. This is tit for tat war. Shia sunni war in yemen??????? Please read the recent history of houthis in yemen then comment about this war. Either they fight for saudi arabia or they fight against saudia arabia. They keep changing sides all the time. Just check the history. Thank you.

syria is iran's backyard? dude syria was the capital of the ummayad caliphate. The largest caliphate ever. Ruled by sunnis for thousand years until that pig hafez al assad and his alawite gang stole the country with french help. Syria the resting place of khalid bin walid, umar bin abdul aziz and ofcourse salahuddin.All hated by shiites.

Did you know that 5 children today in syria were massacred in an assad airstrike on a school in alleppo? ofcourse not. I don't expect you to know. Just as i dont expect you to know that assad has killed more muslims than israel ever had in 4 years. thats the type of people iran supports. thugs and murderers.

As for the houthis go back to page 20 something and see my comments about them

Arabs slam Pak stand on Yemen

CAIRO: The Arab Parliament (AP) speaker has expressed disappointment at Pakistan’s Parliament unanimous vote on Friday to remain neutral in the conflict in Yemen, describing the move as incompatible with the international, Arab and Muslim stance that supports legitimacy in Yemen and aims to strength security and peace in the Arab and Islamic World.

Ahmed Bin Mohammed Al Jarwan said the Arab people had received Pakistan’s participation in the Decisive Storm coalition with optimism and enthusiasm in the hope of creating a joint Arab-Islamic force that backs right against whoever tries to tamper with values of Arab and Islamic nations and that supports security and peace across the world.

‘’The Arab and Muslim people were shocked and disappointed by the Pakistani Parliament decision,’’ he regretted.

He called on the Parliament to fall in line with the will of people in this critical circumstances, the Arab and Islamic World is living through and to back the stance of the government and people of Pakistan that supports the Decisive Storm coalition.

So, there two thing in the speech of the Mr. Jarwan.

one is Arab. which Mr. Jarwan point before Muslim or Islamic.
two is Muslim/Islamic: which Mr. Jarwan point after Arabs.

Conclusion:
they don't care if millions Muslims die. but they care about Arabs(just their relatives and business partners.)[/QUOTE][/QUOTE]
 
.
And in return aren't we giving them nuclear cover to DEFEND? But only for the defense of saudi arabia and still pakistan is keeping its words but saudia arabia wants us to join in its AGGRESSION. Can't you see the difference my friend?
This can be politely made them to understand that our circumstances do not allow us to become the part of any aggression but we can free up the Saudi forces from protecting key areas by stationing our troops in places such as Harmain, Damam, Najran, Tabuk, and Ras Al-Mishab etc. That way we can fulfill our commitments and express solidarity with KSA while at the same time avoid confrontation with Iran.

When you seek for help? When you need it, isn't it? Are we in need of Saudi Troops? Have we ever been in need of Saudi troops? A country with half a million military needs Saudis to fight alongside? Khuda key Bandey, bolney sey pehley thora sa souch bhi liya karo. Why Saudis want us? Because they do not have a strong Army, not at-least in numbers.
