I was in 'lurk' mode but after reading the rubbish in this thread I can't help but reply here to the stupidity galore here. Let's run over some facts first and focus on what is feeding the terrorism and war inside the Muslim world.
Russia, Iran and Syria
1. Broadly speaking they are aligned along the Shia fracture but also pitted
against Israel with Russia being the
don. I want Pakistani's to note this, yes Iran is pitted against Israel along with Assad and other Iranian's backed groups in Lebanon. Hezbollah, the Iranian backed militia group in Lebanon is feared by Israel. This group has fought Israeli army and hurt the Jews badly.

Hezbollah has in the past actually entered Israel and kidnapped or killed Zionist soldiers. This led to Israel attacking Lebanon in 2006 war which IDF struggled against Hezbollah fighters.

The reason why Israel threatens attacking Iran is precisely because of Iranian support to groups like Hezbollah that threaten Israel. That is why America which is principal partner of Israel also has Iran sanctioned and regularly threatens that country. You really need to be smoking strong hashish not to see that Iran, Syria and Russia are on
one side.
USA, Saudia Arabia, Israel, UAE etc
2. These countries are on the other side. USA is the
godfather of this group and underneath you have it's lackeys including KSA and Israel. They are against Iran, Assad's Syria and of course Russia which is the
don of the other side. Israel regards Assad's Syria as the last threat on it's flanks - Saddam's Iraq and Gaddafi's Libya are no more. In addition it regards Iran as a threat throught the support it provides to Hezbollah in Lebanon. USA of course is primarily interested in supporting it's illegitimate child Israel. Saudia Arabia working under USA sponsorship of course overlooks the plight of Palestinians and what the Israeli's are doing in Gaza and is only interested in hurting Shia Iran. KSA is more concerned about Shia's then it is about what the Jews are doing to Muslims in Gaza, West Bank every day.
We all know Israel could not survive without even one day without US support, yet KSA does everything to please USA and sing the American song. So what we see in Middle East are a
two rival gangs broadly headed by the godfather ~ USA and the don ~ Russia. The result is the civil war in Syria, Iraq and Yeman. We know Mossad, CIA are operating in Syria supporting the anti Assad forces along with support from KSA. On the other side you have the Russian's opposing them with help from Iran on side of Assad. So let me again list the combatents.
USA ~ the godfather.
Israel
Saudia Arabia
UAE
Bahrain
Qatar
etc
Russia ~ the don
Iran
Assad's Syria
Now, can somebody for f*cks sakes tell me what is this Islamic Military Alliance going to do? You might as well call it US/Israel alliance with junior members KSA and UAE? How is IMA going to stop the fighting when it is one of the parties to the fight? Is Gen. Raheel Sharif going to take over IMA and stop Hezbollah from attacking
Israel? Is Gen. Raheel Sharif going to take over IMA to stop Russians/Iranians from supporting Assad's Syria? Like fu*cks he is. If he does he has just become a
pawn of USA/Israel by working for it;s ally KSA.
If he does this he will lose all respect. That is why I dout he is going to be placed in charge of IMA. And go through the two grouping I gave, please. If you can't see that then there is somethimg wrong with people here as it is readily apparent.
Over and out.
