Muslim countries should form a joint 'Islamic Army' on the lines of Nato to halt Israeli atrocities on the innocent people of Palestine, says Salma Hashmi

QUETTA: A PML-Q leader has called for Muslim countries to form a joint 'Islamic Army’ on the lines of Nato to halt Israeli atrocities on the innocent people of Palestine.

In a statement on Sunday, Salma Hashmi said, “Israeli fighter jets and military tanks have been killing hundreds of innocent Palestinian people including...women and children but the governments of Muslim countries have been issuing just condemning statements”.

She said all Muslim countries must take immediate measures to form a joint army like Nato if they were serious to retaliate against brutal Israeli attacks on Palestinian people.

“When Western countries, including the USA, Britain, France, Canada and others, could join hands to protect their interests by forming a joint military alliance in the shape of Nato then why are Muslim countries reluctant to form a joint Islamic army which should be funded jointly by all Muslim countries,” she said.

Ms Hashmi said that if billions of dollars that the Arab countries had deposited in American, Swiss and French banks withdrew a big financial crisis would emerge in Western countries.

She also urged the Muslim countries to form their joint bank like the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, adding that Arab monarchs and elite classes should transfer their money from Western banks to the proposed joint Islamic bank.

The army will first have a fight amongst one another and that fight will never end another 1400 years shall pass than

Even if we settle our internal differences (LOL!), where would the hardware come from? How many Islamic states actually have defence industries? Turkey, Pakistan, Iran (limited) - who else? The lazy Khalijis just spend and buy for non-Khalijis to fly...

The polices of such declarations do not result in fighting, but yes if they are booked by the cia

Even if we settle our internal differences (LOL!), where would the hardware come from? How many Islamic states actually have defence industries? Turkey, Pakistan, Iran (limited) - who else? The lazy Khalijis just spend and buy for non-Khalijis to fly...

Yes that is right but they can cover up that loss financially and with that money, the countries having a good military can fund their system and this can never happen cuz the people who call for this will surely be assassinated by the west. We also have examples of this in the past like Shah Alam

Don't get me wrong, but realistically the animosity in the Arab world between Shia/Sunni is unbelievable - I know this first hand having worked in such an environment. With the Iranians it's the same - they all seem to suffer from some sort of complex (??)

All I can say is thank God that even with our differences in Pakistan, our ulema manage to keep a lid on things and generally we Pakis don't [openly] make our differences be known. Not to say there aren't morons on both extremes...

I have all bit given hope on the Arabs, thebonly people who can do something on these lines - Turks, Pakis and Malaysians/Indonesians (??). All have the man power, knowledge and firm industrial base to start something...
