@MastanKhan Sir, what do you say now, ours was a sane decision right? staying away from yemen?
Sir,
If you think about pakistan---it was the worst diecision---if you think about suadi arabia--it was again a terrible decision.
Pakistanis need to understand that a fighting force is just not built by procuring advanced weapons---. I does compensate----but to a certain extent.
So---when saudi arabia asked us for help----they already knew that their military was not upto parr---and we also knew that as well.
So---if pak military had gone in---the job could have been done in a much better and professional manner----could have presented the yemeni shia's of the terrible consequences and found ways to compromise---.
So---from a position of strength---to look for a compromise---they could have stood in between yemeni shia's and saudis and found ways and means to bring the level to animosity down.
It would also had given the pak military to expand---and become a deciding factor of taking care of disputes in the region----.
In order for pakistan to become financially strong---it needed to grow militarily----it needed to grow outside of its borders----it needed to make its mark on the foreign land as a force in charge---.
A 50000 troops to start with---leading upto 150000 troops in that region----would create jobs in the region for a million plus household immediatley and the influx of funds would start and create multiple new industrial complexes---colleges univ--hospitals---.
This agreement if signed could have been in the range of 20 billion dollars for the first year---and coming down to around 5 billion dollars every year----.
It would have given pakistan military bases in yemen-----the threat of indian military strike would evaporate in thin air----as a matter of fact---pakistan would have had more say in how many more pakistanis could be hired in other fields---.
Now as for the safety of my shia brethren in pakistan---shame on the govt for not taking charge---if it was upto me---I would start a cleanup operation of anti shia elements without any warning and neutralize them without any fanfare.
Bottomline is---Iran is never a tructed ally of any nation----wherever iran's influence has gone in---it has resulted in a lots of bloodshed and instability---.
I thought the Yemeni shia would be more knowledgeable of the fact.
In this war against terror---when many of the christian nation stood together to fight---the first opportunity that the major muslim power pakistan had to act---it stuck its tail between its legs and scampered off waving the white flag.
In this instance---the enemy has succeeded in fracturing the friendship between two countries---.
At this time----other than china---there is no other country that pakistan can look forward to in time of dire need----what a shame.
