Saudi Arabia is a spineless country. We need to look towards Turkey and Iran for any sort of alliance and put aside any sectarian differences.
A valid criticism on Saudis has been confused as collusion and support for Iran by some Pakistanis.
those of us who dare to question Saudis have clarify to that we are not excusing Iranian regime by criticizing Saudi destructive policies. just like people have to declare that they are not Ahmedis and believe in finality of Prophet Muhammad PBUH whenever they express grief over the persecution of Ahmedi minority.
we have been always viewed as useful idiots at best by Saudi royal family and their extended associates in KSA. Some Pakistanis tell us that we must be grateful for Saudi air money to us. and Indeed we should be but going by that example we must be more grateful to the Americans who have aided us far more than any other country but we never in any inhibition to criticize them. Saudi "aid" was never out of compassion but their so called aid was always conditional with compound interest. only the Deobandi militant organisations received their aid without any need to repay to counter the Iranian influence in Pakistan and teach Pakistanis a lesson for their insolence.
And finally, my request to Pakistanis, please bear in mind that Saudis are not Prophet Muhammad PBUH or Sahabah RA. they happen to have possession of Hijaz thanks to the British Empire when they back stabbed the Turks before which their main source of income was robbing and killing pilgrims and caravans.
I would advise against an open and all out hostility towards the Saudis because they can hurt us a lot together with the help of their Indian and |Israeli allies. we need to play it gracefully and diplomatically. reducing our reliance on them. their biggest blackmailing point is our people working there and sending us the remittances which they now plan to replace with Indians.
only a self respect, self reliance and self belief will get us the respect among friends and foes we deserve. respectfully but confidently standing up to Saudis wont make us Shias, Qatar, Malaysia or Turky have not suddenly become Iranian Kohomeni agents by putting a front to the Saudis.
but before we take that road we need to get our house in order. self reliance completion and success of CPEC and look for better economic and defense alliances with dignity and mutual respect.
My message to the saudi gulfis:
F**K OFF!
this message can get you declared an Iranian spy.
some Pakistanis consider Saudi criticism as blasphemy
