Do you think so? The Saudis would starve too.
Look, strikes are quite common in our culture. -see the riots in France or Hong Kong. If it's mass, the punishments are small or none. And Indians also love their country and their media is very bloodthirsty.
I consider this as a kind of political support. Pakistan needs it and the Saudis have to mutter something about support... Like in the case of Palestine or Qatar. Maybe they'll lend them some weapons. Yeah yeah.

Lol twitter handle

This actually pretty crazy. American states invest pensions into Israeli junk bonds, and when Israeli economy is hurt, the American pension holder suffers.

Diversion.





I don't think Saudis will contribute much if Pakistan is attacked. It is more the reverse; a security for Saudis.
Israel going after China directly rather than through their American host would be the funniest thing.
It's as though even they're eager for China to do more for ME peace

Israel has access to American tech, doesn't mean Israel produces/owns the tech.
Israel may use European and US industrial chains since its a small country but there is fundamental difference between Israel and Europe.
They were ranking innovation not industrial production.
Gulf Arabs/ Russians know the difference as there societies at highest level has developed which Europe is not.

Strategic Mutual Defense Agreement
Well, every action causes a reaction. Israel has really kicked the iron plate this time. IMO nuclear umbrella for Saudis

Anyway, happy birthday!

Why the Trump regime is threatening Venezuela: the nationalization of privately and US company owned oil fields, and Venezuela's cooperation with China.
One area, Lake Maracaibo, is estimated to contain about 50-70 billion barrels of oil. Over time, US firms have drilled over 3,000 wells in the lake, and many of them have been idle or abandoned amid the decline and sanctions.

Recently, China - now strong enough to ignore and flout US-led sanctions - signed a deal to invest over $1 billion in two of the fields in Lake Maracaibo over 20 years, aiming for 60,000 bpd output by 2027, planning to develop up to 500 wells. For comparison, current output is 12,000 bpd.

Notably, these Chinese oil transactions are settled in RMB (yuan) and directly shipped to China in order to evade US sanctions. This contributes directly to de-dollarization efforts. Venezuela is able to use this RMB in turn to pay for consumer and industrial goods from China. Currently, an estimated 85-90% of Venezuela's oil is sold to China.

Finally, the first Chinese floating oil platform arrived in Lake Maracaibo in early September to ramp up production, and is reported to have recently commenced operation.

With the Gaza genocide, who will take such hypocrisy seriously anymore?

Paks can provide the security, if Saudis provide the money to pay for J-35A and enough HQ-xx missiles to shut down Brahmos attacks. We can't expect PAF to fight Israeli F-35 with only J-10s can we?

Maybe a PAF air/naval base on the Saudi coast too.
