Turkey and Iran condemn UAE for getting in bed with Israel, is Pakistan asleep?

[Aspen]

I must say that I cannot help but see the events of recent unfolding and Pakistan's deafening silence on it.

For a country that prides itself on supporting Muslims and the Islamic cause, Pakistan is absolutely silent on the one issue that defines oppression of Muslims in the world.

I hate how people on PDF always say that Pakistan always stands up for Muslims, but when the time actually comes to do it.......silence.

Honestly this is a terrible feeling as a Pakistani. Our government is witnessing blatant injustices by oppressors like the UAE and refuses to condemn it, at best looking the other way. UAE is so shameless that they feel like they can get in bed with Israel in broad daylight and they're not even pretending to hide it. UAE boasts about normalizing with Israel and they feel great about normalizing relations with a country that is a stated enemy of Muslims. Pakistan has conveyed through utter silence on the issue that they have seen the normalization of Israel and UAE and are ok with it, not feeling the need or any sense of urgency to even put out a simple statement condemning the UAE's tacit acceptance of an occupier that has locked up Palestinians as worse than animals.

Meanwhile, Turkey and Iran have blasted UAE for this move. Is Pakistan asleep? Not a word from Pakistan on a development that is simply too big to ignore unless Pakistan Foreign Office is dumber than a bag of rocks.

Which leaves 2 scenarios:

1. Pakistan doesn't have balls to criticize UAE for getting in bed with Israel
2. Pakistan is ok with UAE-Israel relations

Things like this make me ashamed of such a government that desires justice for Kashmir but either cannot or does not even have the sense to state the obvious when it comes to Muslims oppressed by Israel and hypocritical Khaleejis.

Turkey and Iran have taken a strong stand against this, where is Pakistan?

No wonder Pakistan struggles to get support on Kashmir, why would anyone support us when our voice is silent on the issues that matter. Pakistan claims to be a champion of Muslims but we cannot even put out a simple statement condemning UAE for normalizing an occupation that clearly deserves to be condemned?

Pakistan should be vocal about this hugely important issue .

When is Erdogan ending diplomatic relationship between Turkey and Israel? Hope he gets time to do that once he is done condemning UAE.

Look at you celebrating at the sight of tense relations of Pakistan with GCC.

Pakistan has borrowed money from UAE. Countless times. We need a stronger economic and less depenedent on GCC Pakistan before we condemn them. Public and social media however is letting the arabs know that this is backstabbing.

Surprised to say that this is one of the very few times I agree with an Indian on PDF. I will make an exception for this one time.

Turkey and Iran have reasons to publicly ridicule UAE and Israel. Any concerns Pakistan has regarding recent events in UAE should be expressed behind closed doors. Publicly Pakistan should be quiet.

Pakistan always says world ignores Kashmir because of India's economy.

That applies to Pakistan too. UAE has advanced the agendas of our enemies India and Israel by supporting thinly veiled oppression of Muslims in Kashmir and West Bank. We should not look the other way at UAE just because they have a strong economy.

Pakistan should have condemned UAE for normalizing occupation of West Bank if we want any moral standing on Kashmir, otherwise we are no better. World ignores Kashmir because of Indian economy, Pakistan ignores Israeli occupation because of UAE economy.

Why should we even condemn this? Does this agreement affect us? The answer is a big No. Palestinians havnt been the most trustful lot for us. Did Pakistanis already forget that they awarded Modi with the highest civil honor and called back their ambassador just bcz he supported Kashmir cause. Lets not get riled up in this 3 way $hit fest of Arabs Iranis and Israel.

Then why would anyone publicly support Kashmir if Pakistan doesn't speak on issues that matter?

Turkey and Iran have success because they have a strong cause that they stand for. Something Pakistan severely lacks in the current moment.

Because no one will care about Kashmir if we don't take a stand and make our voice heard on other important issues.

Pakistan will not get support on Kashmir until we take a strong stand on other important issues that matter.

How hard is this to understand? Kashmir does not exist in a vacuum independent of other issues.

The silence of the world on Kashmir is directly related to the fact that Pakistan is silent on other issues like this.

Fighting Muslim oppression is not a part time job.

Easy comments to make from the USA. You speak as if Pakistan recognized Israel. This crisis has to be handled with diplomacy not emotions.

 

[Nefarious]

Pak should keep on the d low and get it's shit right before jumping on sanctions bandwagon again. I think Iran has it all under control. Go get em bros.

Turkey and Iran have strong support because they take a strong stand and make their voice heard.

Pakistan will have to do exactly the same thing to get any real traction in Kashmir.

Name me one Muslim country which genuinely cares about Kashmir. There is simply no diplomatic solution to Kashmir issue and no country out there is willing to even raise voice on the issue. We are alone in this fight sooner we realize it the better. Turkey and Iran are simply doing politics they have no genuine love for Kashmir or Palestine just their internal and external power politics.
