Not seen any report saying Indians will exercise in Mecca or Medina. Can you share?
I don’t believe there is one and even so there are non-muslim areas outside of the haram’s limits.
The fact that the legitimate heir of the Hashemite legacy openly hosts and coordinates defense policy with Israel should be acceptable so should Indian troops, US troops or Chinese troops in KSA be as well.
KSA chose US troops on a higher cost to itself over Pakistani troops three decades ago which was the most concrete slap to any idiotic perceptions of the “Ummah” concept having relevance to leadership of Muslim majority countries.
The United States establishment is slapping MBS on the wrist in a “know your role” message. That doesn’t mean it’s suddenly opened up Saudi coffers for Pakistan or Pakistani bases in KSA.
MBS has for all intents and purposes given some purpose of direction, rather all GCC countries now have a clear ideology and direction - which is why they will continue to progress socially and technologically.
Even India has its fascist Hindutva which provides it a clear direction on which to indoctrinate the masses
What does Pakistan have to offer? They can’t even decide on what is a Pakistani or whether all are Muslims or not muslims or whether 9sq Griffins is a halal symbol or not.The ability & value of the Pakistani leadership at all levels is highly overrated.
Very few advancing countries want to partner with such headless chickens including China which even with massive geographic and economic compulsions to want the Pakistani transit and counter to India now looks for backup policies.
These childish dreams of Indian destruction are best left to the school assembly speeches.
Only a complete national psyche change - that provides a unified purposeful voice will change anything. Otherwise the next 20 years are exactly the same and it seems to suit the ruling elite and the masses as well apparently.
The only thing that will change is Pakistani value which isn’t going up - just stagnant. KSA’s own value is already changing fast and soon Pakistani value will relatively be irrelevant.
