France could deploy Fremm frigates and Rafale jets to Greece

The time frame u mentioned is no doubt important for arabs and US wanted to control ME and its oil. What i me tioned was post this era, where arabs already bevmcame rich (some of them) and Pakistan obtained nuclear weapons. The attention diverted to pak afghan region and US wanted to dismantle Pakistan. The focus is now in the pacific and on china but unfortunately Pakistan is involved with china too and would face issues again in future.
What i am saying is arabs have given in to west totally, relying on them. Even iran managed to be strong in sanctions and arabs remain weak after wealth. I see though now they r waking up but again mostly relying on western weapons instead of indigenization. Something Turkey is doing far better than arabs and Pakistan.
Thinhs would be very different if arab dictators stopped hating islamic democratic and political movements like MB and instead worked to democratize the arab world in an islamic way. I hope the arabs stop hating turks n other muslims and focus on real enemy israel.

What you fail to understand is that the US/West never took strong action against Iran, Turkey or Pakistan compared to the action they took against Arab states.

Iran's sactions are not that heavy, they still have international flights to the world, they have open trade.

Iraq's 90's sanctions were a complete lockdown with no-fly zones, no flights, all land borders closed and no trade allowed of any kind.

If the US took a military course against Turkey or Iran of similar intensity as the 1991 gulf war, then neither of those would survive that. Pakistan would not survive it either, your nukes are the only asset you have that are capable other then that they'd trash the rest of your arsenal.

Arabs that resisted the US were taken out by the US so i'm not sure what part you need more explanation for. If they were hell-bent on taking out Iran they could have done it long ago in the 90's. They simply chose not to, you think they can't?

The Arab world's monarchies allied with the US: Morocco-Jordan-GCC.
The Republic Arab states that acted against the US: Algeria, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Yemen.

That's not majority, that's a 50% split of the Arab world.

Egypt? Are you sure?

 

[Saddam Hussein]

Egypt? Are you sure?

Historically yes, in the 70's yes. the shift largely took place in 1991 when the US gained superiority on the world stage.

Why would they take out iran? Iran plays a vital role for them, as balancer between arab sunni powers and shias. Why do even arabs think west will take on iran. You will have to do it urself, like ur elders did. And no country in the world can face American military might, not even with nukes, though our nukes and delivery vehicles with ranges upto Israel gives us some security. In 91 the arabs were not united either. Ur not getting the main point im making.

'Protect others' hehe

If there is any Muslim country that has resisted Western interference/hegemony it would have been certain Arab states. Not to forget the 70's oil crisis which Saudi Arabia took a heavy hand in.

This is why the US attacks a number of Arab states. Turkey did not resist the US, Iran was America's buddy till 1979 and Pakistan well look at your air force inventory and that pretty much sums it up.

Not sure what it is with Pakistanis always looking to side with a foreign actor, 10 years ago you guys were strongly with Saudi Arabia, today you do it with Turkey. Try to get rid of this bad habit.

Try again.

How can arab states fight western imperialism/interference when exactly these arab states exist on map thanks to european(western) powers who established them

Arabs rebelled against the British and fought for their independence. We don't need to be under ottoman rule neither British.

Nope, they have u fully under their grip by installing their picked dictators on demand, no independence. The only thing which right now changes is the demand on oil and as a result of that its no longer that necessary to rule over u but that has little to do with u fighting for independence, thats simply not the case.

Actually we had military coups, including one against the British allied monarchy.

I think that you suffer from inferiority complex, but one day you'll be a true Arap, just like me.
