Yemenis are going to get killed, not because of PAF but because of the war that was triggered by the Houthis expansionism.
And Pakistan cannot decline a Saudi request because of our dependence on Saudi oil and dollars.
The best Pakistan can and should do is to negotiate for a good price.
The situation is the same as with uncle Sam after 9/11, "you are either with us or against us" and if choose to be against there is a price to pay, a price that Pakistan realistically cannot afford to pay
Exactly, but only this time Pakistan better decline. The last time we sides with Uncle Sam we burnt our own house. I'm sure most Pakistanis remember that episode and aren't in the mood of revisiting that period.
As for Saudi dollars and oil, the civilian leadership is answerable. They should send their own children to fight this war against the Houthis. I don't have a steel mill in Saudi Arabia to look after. People that do should send their family and kids to do the fighting. The Pak army has other more important tasks at hand such as cleaning up FATA and resorting peace inside Pakistan.
In reality, we know who is backing the Saudis. This war is being fought with Uncle Sam's blessing. It's crystal clear. The architects of this war are the Saudis along with Uncle Sam. Nope, we refuse to be part of this mess. Only mediation.
