sir they have helped you from day one sir and in 90s for more than decade you got oil for free and its not about being slave its about ummah and our interests sir your economy is mostly running because off Saudi money and problems you are facing is because you killed your own people on american orders
So what? You want us to get on all fours and start worshiping Saudis??
Let me tell you this: Non-Muslim countries have helped Pakistan a great deal too, what do you say about them?? China, a Communist country has assisted us countless times.
Should we than adopt Communism and try to indoctrinate our population with Marxist/Maoist ideals?
Iran was the first Muslim country to recognize Pakistan as a independent country. NO Arab country, including Saudi Arabia, recognized Pakistan's existence until much later on.
What do you say we sell our country out to some Iranian Ayatollah?
your economy is mostly running because off Saudi money
And to say that Pakistan's economy is "mostly running because of Saudis", that is something to be ashamed of.
Why should our economy be run by others?
Are we inept? If Saudis run our economy then they call the shots in our internal matters as well as foreign policy. To sell your country short to some foreign entity is treason. And the punishment for treason is execution.
you got oil for free and its not about being slave its about ummah and our interests
The oil was in exchange for enduring Western imposed sanctions after Pakistan tested its n * u * k * e * s, which our scientists, engineers, and specialists risked their lives and the lives of their loved ones to create.
Money is money, and oil is just that, oil. Its the mind of an individual that pioneers and innovates to achieve great feats.
Every marvel and invention is the result of an individual's mind. The individual is the greatest asset of a nation. The greatest resource is a intelligent and innovative human being. You can't pump scientists, physicists, engineers, and doctors out of the ground the way you can oil.
And that is what WE possessed and still possess, and THAT is our greatest resource, our pool of scientists, engineers, and physicists.
Secondly, you actually think Saudi Arabia assists Pakistan due to "Ummah" obligations and not out of their own interests? Oh, right, we can see what they did to Saddam, who BTW was not a Kafir Iranian Shia Persian Ayatollah.
Keep these facts in mind, Arabs have a internal rivalry both within their own countries as well as with other Arab states. They despise one another and happily assist in each others overthrow.
Secondly, they lack competent military's. Their armed forces are heavily influenced by nepotism. A officer or general is given hes position NOT based on his competence but on his tribal affiliation with the ruling tribe or loyalty to the regime. Loyalty comes first, then competence.
Pakistan, being the only non-Arab Muslim country, dominated by a majority Sunni population, possesses as very capable and highly trained, well renowned armed forces and a large pool of one of the finest scientists, engineers, and physicists in the region, perhaps even the world, thus making it a perfect candidate for a back up in case anyone tries to overthrow the Saudi regime.
In times of conflict, Pakistan can call upon more than 50-60 million armed men. That's more than entire Saudi population.
They need us not because of "Ummah", but because their survival depends on it. They have no other ally in the region. Almost everyone despises them in their neighborhood. They fear their own Arab neighbors as well as their own people.
Which is why they put a lot of emphasis on this illusion on "Ummah" and "Muslim brotherhood", because religion is the only connection they have with Pakistanis. And that is why they promote their Salafism in Pakistan and even Afghanistan, to keep the common Pakistani blind under the banner of Muslim "Ummah".
But due to advancement in information technology, more and more Pakistanis are realizing the truth, as can bee seen on this very forum.
