Gulf states to push for a US plan for containing Iran

So far, at least, it seems the Arab monarchies are far more stable than the Arab republics have been. Where has all the strife been? Libya, Tunisia, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, etc. Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, UAE, Qatar, etc, far more stable and socialy at peace.

There is also a common thread between President-for-Life versus King-for-Life Arab countries. Libya, Tunisia, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, etc have no oil/gas or very limited. While Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, UAE, Qatar, etc have extensive oil/gas reserves to bribe their population. Lebanon imploded due to sectarian strife while Jordan remains peaceful since King Hussain and Abdulla have not been dictatorial.

Good points. I would say that many of the monarchies, while often conservative, have still not been as brutal as say, Saddam Hussein's Iraq or Qaddafi's Libya. The whole Arab Spring started after all, because of the brutality of the Tunisian regime.

F@ck your understanding. Their reason for your exploit these Arab countries, support them to suppress the people who want democracy.

US is not there for "Gulf monarchies" or the love of sheiks.

The real reason is irani Mullah's $tupid behavior. Why the fork hijack a ship from international waters.

Now here comes US response

If you sign a contract to transport some merchandize , then you are suported to deliver that merchandize not to never show your face .
10 year ago that ship had a contract to deliver some merchandize from uae to Iran but never show itself . now you a going to say we must ask permission of others to ask them what they did with the cargo even in our territorial water that our law apply to it?

Don't forget Khalifa dynasty in Bahrain in your list .

Sometimes I wonder that in 2015AD Mullahism and brains cannot exist in the same body.
It may have existed 1000s of years ago. But not now.

Hence the "amazing" policies of Iranian Mullahs.
Not everybody can be as amazing as you guys. You know, not have control of half the country, no control of the borders, complete and utter lack of social services of any kind, have the nation's education system in the hand of a foreign country, have a domestic militant terrorist organization running around free in half the nation, have its citizens shooting girls for going to school, not have any money for the most basic infrastructure projects etc.. etc...

As bad as the mullahs are, they are Denmark compared to your leaders, system of governance and dominant culture.

Our Mullahs (most Shias and Sunnis) fit thee same description as the Ayatuullahs.

I highly doubt it. When your people and secular leaders are this dysfunctional, your mullahs are probably a thousand times worse than ours.

If I were you, I'd stay silent on issues I have no idea about.
No one has hijacked anything, the ship will be free to go as soon as the company stands up to its previous commitments.

You do know these kinds of lies bring nothing but embarrassment at the end, don't you?

A totally off-topic question.
You were from Ahmadiyya sect, right? Are you guys basically similar to bahai's but for sunnis? What differences you guys have with bahai's and muslims?
It may sound a bit dumb, but are you guys more peaceful compared to sunnis in general?
Thanks

I don't wanna sound too cocky bro, but take out the oil and gas reserves, and you'll see the very same if not the worse here too.

Great to see you (virtually speaking).

No I or my family do not belong to that sect. I just raise my voice to support the safety and equal treatment of all sects including Shia and Ahmadiya, and all religions in Pakistan including Christians and Hindus.

So Sorry that I won't have an answer to your question. But it could be a topic of good research bookk/paper.
