Israel & Pakistani View: Is that correct?

[untitled]

Turkey and Azerbaijan do buy weapons from Israel.

And so did Iran when it needed them against Iraq

Weapons for the Afghan Jihad against USSR too ...... Israel and Egypt were covertly in the loop

My point exactly. Have a look at this:

^^^
That's a good few Islamic countries who have diplomatic relations with them.

Which is why the flotilla thing and Israel recalcitrant behaviour afterwards was such a bad idea with Turkey. They like one of the only Israeli Allies in the region.

It`s like trading a best friend for a guy who tried multiple times to stab you in the neck.

When has Pakistan ever hidden its hostility towards Israel ? Why the backstabbing ?

Probably India can make that claim ..... but not Israel

Why would Israel sell any type of sophisticated weaponry to Pakistan? Not to mention Pakistan being India`s worst enemy... Not the strongest enemy but definitely the most bitter.

But you do trade military equipment with China Right?

I bet if you guys could, you'd prefer to have a cordial relationship with them. As for selling weapons. You're right, Israel probably wouldn't sell Pakistan anything for fear of losing the Indian market.

However, the point I was trying to make was the Pakistanis are fighting a war that's not necessarily theirs to fight. What benefit does it do to them by not recognizing Israel? The Arabs don't give a sh*t. Look at India, we're Pakistan's biggest sworn enemy but does that stop Saudi Arabia from selling us oil? No.

...If you see some Israeli terrorists (aka in Army uniform) entering your home. Wont you fight them to save your wife from getting raped -

What gave you this idea? This is so untrue it isn't even part of Arab propaganda. Instead, the fact that Israeli soldiers DON'T rape women is bizarrely cited as proof of Israeli racism! link

I think above are some of the sanest comments you can get on this issue... this issue has been discussed in countless other threads ..... and usually ends in a flame bait

You forgot Iran

 

[Tshering22]

And people wonder....

Don't bother. They live in their own sweet world of "Brotherhood".

I wouldn't really consider Iranians as Arabs. So much for your little joke.

They aren't. In fact, it would be insulting for Iranians to be called Arabs.

But they do supply India with oil. And a bitter foe of Israel

Terrorism. They are afraid that Afghanistan would become a breeding ground for terrorists. May I dare say they fear the same for Pakistan, especially considering they have nukes.

Although, I'd have to say that Iraq was a disaster. But glad that the Iraqis are getting along somehow now. The sentence - War on Terror is a bit of an exaggerated statement.

Key for Muslims is to opt for a strong state as per Muslim-majority country. I think some Muslims folks just couldn't tolerate the fact the Israel defeated the Arabs so decisively four times in a row. That's partly how Muslim extremism came about.

So, if they are there to prevent that, why are they leaving: there has been very limited capacity building of Afghans, as yet, the Taliban, still, have a lot of clout. Occupation never solves problems, they should have let Taliban extradiate OBL, tried him in court & sent a message that see he did wrong, we got him. Mind ur own business, and we mind ours. Further, they could have spent the trillions of dollars on homeland security.

And Pakistan can do very well without America's concerns. TTP is a CIA offshoot, my father has served in ISI & I know this very well. Twice in 2007, we pinpointed the location of Mehsud to CIA & both the times they helped evacuate him, instead of sending in a drone. We also know what for Mr Davis was here. We also know why US does not let us fence the Pak-Afg border.

The last war was lost by Israelis, please. And the root cause of extremism has been oppression. The day Palestine, Kashmir & oppression elsewhere ceases, we will know peace, atleast brighter than today.

Conclusion:

Extremists always prey on insecurity among masses. The key to success is to beat the terrorists in their own game: Address their insecurities, sentiments and frustration! Rob extremists off the very ground, they stand on.

That's the long term & conclusive solution...
