PM Imran Khan meets Saudi Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

All helps should be extended to Saudi Arabia to stop terrorist attacks in their civilian sector

 

[SQ8]

The middle eastern conflict will go on without us because we are increasingly irrelevant to it.

If you are reasonably well dressed in the GCC and look non-arab; the locals think you are an Indian and ask you just that. They will join their hands and say namaste.

Because they see Indian on their TV, in their office and at their store.

The only version of Pakistan known to them is the construction man or taxi driver.

That is the reality we have brought upon ourselves by ignoring our economy and focusing on personal finances with short term gains.

Now we reap the fruits of lip service and nothing more.

I see soon a time when Indian military will be training Saudis and stationed in Saudi Arabia.
Will probably check in to see the responses of the usual frustrated here while they wonder if their ethnic leader/gods have made another statement yet.

Pakistan is victim of perception. i had seen that in US as well. But it is wrong. People should be respect based on Individual and not cast and nationality.

Pakistanis know only one thing and that is to complain
India is 1.2 billion Pakistan is 200 million you can't match with them in soft power or film and drama industry
Indian films and dramas are more popular in Pakistan than in any other part of the world outside of India

What was the delegation of Imran Khan?

Shah Mehmod Qureshi Zulfi Bukhari etc

 

[HAIDER]

Can I ask why Iran is such a holy cow for the Shias of Pakistan? All major Shia sites are in Iraq like Karbala. Majority of Sunnis understand the difference between Hijaz and Saudi Arabia. Why Shia obsession with Iran?

we have habit of generalization and extreme low habit of accepting counter argument. We love to listen what we like. That is the reason. We are less concerned about our own economy and corruption related issue, but more concern about others.

I understand Iraq, that is where Karballa is and fully respect that. But why Iran? Pakistan got more Sufi shrines and saints buried here then any where else! My question was specifically about Iran not Iraq, Syria or any other place.

In Sub-continent sufism came through Iran. Iranian played vital role in propagation of Islam in that region. If you read the poetry on centuries old sufi shrines in Pakistan or India, you will find all persian language written.

well, our chest thumping kids still believe GCC govts will support Pakistan any standoff situation . Our PDF members still not believing our GCC friends didn't support Pakistani Human Rights resolution on Kashmir in UN. GCC has no interest in Kashmir .
Worked many companies as consultant , but I hardly find any Pakistani ....

Where else in the world outside of South Asia and UN Missions has Indian military ever been stationed?
And why do you think the Indians will want their military in Saudi Arabia or vice versa? if it were to happen, I would take that as a signal of demise of the Saudi regime.

PS. I think everyone knows Indians will not fight for anyone else. They barely want to fight for themselves.

they don't need us... on the other hand iran can provide us hefty discounts on oil

They will not give Pakistan jack $h!t. You can’t trust Iranians, even Russians don’t trust Iranians. According to my Iranians friends, even Iranians don’t trust Iranians. Doesn’t mean all are same but be very careful.

 

[The Accountant]

we have nxt door neighbor to meet our oil demands.... guys I really don't understand when it comes to KSA or IRAN why do we have to choose a side??? just do your business and let them play with their mess.... they have rented US forces, they don't need us... on the other hand iran can provide us hefty discounts on oil

If it is about discount then KSA is already giving us hefty discounts on oil

Pakistan tired many times negotiating high gas prices for IP gases pipe like that was signed by Zadari to reward his Shia brothers. Iranians refused to lower the price. US sanction on Iran came as a blessing. Now Pakistan have an excuse not to complete or buy High price Iranian gas. Iranian threatened Pakistan with fine but nobody international court care since Iran is sanctioned by Uncle Sam.

Do you have price comparision to substantiate claim of higher prices. Ideally IP should be cheaper considering the cost of transportation should be low.

There was a whole thread on it years ago. With international prices, vs IP prices vs Qatari deal. Iranian refused to lower price even after them getting sanctioned. Qatari deal was lot cheaper than Iranian even after transportation cost. .

I don't recall Baba Bulley Shah, Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai, Baba Fared Ganj Shakar , etc, were Persians?

But even if some were Persians, maybe we are talking about era where Iran was a Sunni entity.

what makes you think they were the followers of sunnah wal jamaah? Every shia claims to be the sunni as in the follower of sunnah of Prophet. Some Akhbari shias in sub-continent also follow the deen of Ibn Arbi, now someone may come up and claim ibn arbi was a follower of sunnah wal jamaah but it's debatable.
