OIC Peacekeeping Forces needed.

[Peaceful Civilian]

Peacekeeping force... This is good idea.

OIC is yet to show it's strength on diplomatic front first.

OIC Peace Keeping Force for maintaining peace in majority Muslim countries

No one is talking about Armies fauj sahab. As usual you are jumping the gun.

• OIC should establish a team of ~ 10,000 Sea Air Land qualified Special Operators.
• They will only operate inside the member states.
• Will follow OIC's mendage (Rules of Engagement)
• Would be well funded, well resourced, highly trained
• Would be from multiple different member states
• OIC would maintain a central Command and Control net.
• Member states would help the peacekeepers with their assets in the area and would provide airpower if needed.
  
  

Such a force can greatly improve things in places like Somalia and can be used in other member states in stabilization roles.

Well the most memorable statement that summarised OIC was by the PDF Admin.

Let me quote the YOU

OIC = Organization of Impotent Countries. (58 of them)

Arabs should leave their herms and help Gaza militarily.

Given the recent crisis in Gaza, this editorial by Dawn is important:

OIC’s powerlessness - Newspaper - DAWN.COM

OIC’s powerlessness
Editorial

On the day the National Assembly called upon the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation to take “effective action” against the Israeli attack on Gaza, the 57-member body’s secretary general did some plain-speaking, admitting that the Arab component of the Muslim world could do little to stop the Israeli state from destroying Gaza.

The lawmakers’ speeches contained little beyond emotionalism, and the unanimous resolution passed in Monday’s sessions called for an “emergency session” of the OIC to stop “Israeli brutality against innocent civilians forthwith”.

Not far from Parliament House, Iyad Ameen Abdullah Madani showed a lot of realism in his speech to the Institute of Strategic Studies, referred to the loss of the West Bank, Sinai, Gaza and the Golan Heights in the 1967 war and said there was nothing the Arabs could do “practically” to confront Israel.

The OIC wanted to press war crimes charges against Israel, but, said Mr Madani, “preachers of human rights” were not only supporting Israel but serving as a “political shield” for the Jewish state. Mr Madani, however, claimed, and not unjustifiably, that the OIC had played a positive role in issues concerning Muslims in Myanmar and the Central African Republic.

It is, however, Mr Madani’s views on what ails the Muslim world that deserve attention and analysis. That the current scene in the Muslim world is dominated by debilitating internal conflicts stemming from extremism and sectarianism is obvious.

From Pakistan through the Fertile Crescent to the Maghreb and the Sub-Saharan region, the Muslim world is witnessing one of its history’s greatest ideological conflicts which have turned such countries as Iraq and Syria into one big charnel house.

An end to the fratricide doesn’t seem in sight, because well-armed militias with motivated cadres have weakened state authority by occupying large chunks of territory but are themselves unable to acquire the status of de facto governments.

This has added to mass misery, forcing the people to go looking for the basic necessities of life during anarchy. The point to note, however, is that even when this anarchy was absent — as when powerful dictators gave phony stability to their states — the Muslim world’s collective voice didn’t count for much owing to the absence of some of the basic elements of geopolitical power.

Because of clashing national interests, it was not possible for OIC states to have a collective security system, but at least the organisation could have fostered closer collaboration in science and technology. Such cooperation was feasible, if the OIC had drawn up a comprehensive plan for active collaboration between oil-rich countries and those with a pool of scientific manpower.

What Muslim countries need today is internal peace and democracy in which to organise their societies along scientific lines to give the Muslim peoples the tools to face the social and political challenges confronting them.

The purpose of this force would not be invading countries like NATO has but rather to keep Peace in the muslim world.Such as instead of inviting nato to bomb Libya/syria which in the end create further problem.

Even the Ground troops with basic weapons can take care of any sort of insurgency

How the OIC pecakeeper will react in Afganistan,Iraq,Syria, Libya and many other Islamic African nation where Muslim insurgents are fighting with Muslim rulers?...

I do not know how does it make sense to you...But i have read Islamic Banking system..I am a big fan of it...If you guys really would like to develop something in an united fashion...then develop an economic system that is really in allignment with your religion....Create a parallel bank like World Bank where you fund the project of the poor Islamic nation with Islamic banking priciple where your objective is not to gain profit rather to help them...If you can help other Musim nations with adequate fund to improve their social indicators...rest of the things will automatically fall in line..

I feel you should focous more on OIC Investemnet Bank kind of concept based on your Islamic Banking system....
