Army pledges support for capacity building of Saudi land forces

[mingle]

How is strengthening the Saudi regime in any way a service to Islam?

When Pak says it's service to Islam??

why doesnt saudi ask india for military help.. they gave him an award? or uae gave him an award?

Same goes with Iran too what U think?? World won't stop due to ur problems it's a fact.

We are trying to make cold calculated policies in FA matters.No room for knee jerk reactions.
We train their forces,this grants us leverage on them.They pay for it which boosts our foreign reserve.This acts as a tool in our hands when dealing them.
They are giving lips service and awards to Modi and Oil on deferred payment to us.We have shortcomings when dealing our allies,we should remove them rather whining.

Are we just protecting undemocratic fallacies?

A good move from Pak!! She’s learning fast to steer the geostrategic dynamics to her favor...

ummmmm?????? capacity building....Pakistanis in Saudi uniforms?
I am not happy with this idea or am I completely wrong

They were there before in Saudi uniforms in the 80's. Two brigades worth at the height of their deployment.

I know of one of my subordinates who was stopped by a Shurta near Tabuk and was taken aback that the Saudi Land forces Colonel in uniform turned out to be a Pakistani!

Same is the case of another one of my subordinates who was stopped at the immigration line when he was coming back to Riyadh from an emergency leave, the Saudi showed him the usual disdain and was shocked when the Pakistani brigadier in civil clothes produced his RSLF card. He was escorted out by Saudi immigration personnel immediately.

But all of this was before Desert Storm

Training and advisory mission is going on since long.

A former school classmate of mine is posted there since the beginning of the year.

It is already pretty strong financially and they have a pretty big military budget more than us. So don't think Pakistan will be rescuing them. Protection of the Holy Sites is seevice to Islam. For that we need to be on the same page as saudi "regime".

Getting rid of the house of Saud would be a service to Islam.

Its old saying in Pak armed forces, when they need defence they talk to Pakistan, when they need business they talk to India..

 

[Fieldmarshal]

Around 1000+ Pak army personal serving in different capacities in saudi. N thats just the PA personal.
Largest concentation of PA personal is in khamis mushait, in the south.

Because we are sons of Islam, I saw these video 11 years ago!

 

[El Sidd]

Persio Pakistanis will not be happy with this

 

[Thorough Pro]

"Capacity Building" means training and helping in setting up their command and control infrastructure

ummmmm?????? capacity building....Pakistanis in Saudi uniforms?

[S.Y.A]

Did not see this outrage when we were begging them for financial help earlier.
