I have a friend who lived in the West but came to Pakistan. He was also Hypernationalistic, pro-Army, pro-Khan, and rooting for China and Russia. He could not understand my views for a period of time but time proved me right.
The West has provided knowledge, technology, work opportunities, and business opportunities to the entire world in modern times after World War II. This is the ground reality that you should be focused on.
I expect better from those living in the West in terms of understanding the world due to having better education prospects but this does not seem to be the case. Bored? Disconnect from the mainstream? Working class?

Faked history fuels revivalist dreams, creates false hopes, & suggests the way forward is through the sword.

"A mature attitude towards ancient foreign invasions would be to simply accept them clinically as facts of history. They should be investigated and absorbed without either glorification or condemnation. Doing otherwise is utterly pointless. No one living today can be held responsible for the actions, good or bad, of his or her ancestors. Moreover the mists of time have forever hidden true facts from view."
I do not agree with Hoodboy on every theme but he is spot on in this case.

Iraq has been mired in conflict under leadership of Saddam Hussein. He undermined Arab Unity on many counts. He rejected Iraq - Syria merger plan, a move that would have led to emergence of the most powerful Islamic country in the world. He ordered invasion and annexation of Kuwait, and threatened Saudi Arabia.
NATO protected Saudi Arabia and liberated Kuwait from Iraq in 1991.
Iraqi political dissidents convinced Bush administration to eliminate Saddam regime and introduce a system that gives representation to Iraqi Shia, Iraqi Sunni, and Iraqi Kurd.
Forty years ago this shocking event paved the way for a 24-year rule of fear that saw Iraqi citizens repressed, tortured and murdered.

If Saddam had been a sensible leader, he would have transformed Iraq but he chose to fight wars, oppress people, and create too many enemies.

Modern Palestine is a British creation and a bad experiment at creating a jewish state.

United Nations legitimized existence of Israel in 1948. Arabs should have respected this decision but they chose to eliminate Israel, a move that backfired on Palestinian people. Israel won the war and claimed more lands consequently.
Nevertheless, the British are responsible for creating this problem. OIC should put pressure on the British to address this problem.

Kashmir was a Muslim-majority princely state with Hindu ruler(s) before the partitition in 1947. Muslims of this state are idiots of the highest order for accepting Hindu ruler(s).
Kashmiri Hindu ruler Hari Singh did not cede Kashmir to Pakistan in line with the British partition rule. This indecision frustrated Quaid-e-Azm and he ordered annexation of Kashmir by force in 1948. Pakistani forces managed to claim about half of Kashmir but Hari Singh ceded Kashmir to India and called for Indian assistance. Kashmir is split between Pakistan and India henceforth.
Muslims should never accept Hindu rulers, period.

The Big Five
include Russia and China. Both are a part of the Global Order that you seem to despise, bro.
When are Russia and China giving up VETO power and privilege?
Do you think that Russia and China are working for Islamic causes? Do I have to mention developments in Xinjiang, Syria, and Burma?
Do you think that Russia and China are seeking to topple the Global Order that has served them well on so many counts?
Foolish thought process.
. Or attacking Iraq. They will do everything which usa and west ask them to do.
