For sure, the Pakistani state is involved in intensely diplomacy to build the ground work for Islamabad Talks 2. Vali Nasr said yesterday something like 'Pakistan is not only the best game but the only game' in this conflict.

Arabs and Iranians should unite, hold each other's hands, and work together against Israel. If they continue to fight within themselves, they will all become losers.When Iran claimed he is leader of Muslim world. Majority of Muslim world enemy of Iran provide bases to US and Israel.

What exactly are the mullahs afraid of? There is nothing worse than a full scale bombing and a naval blockade, except for a nuclear attack. Not possessing nuclear weapons is a foolish act that invites that worst-case scenario upon themselves. If war is inevitable, and if a naval blockade is inevitable, then Iran should possess nuclear weapons; that is the only way for the nation to survive.

One of latest videos of the Pakistani journalist Hamid Mir. Per this one, the Pakistani journalistic community knew on April 1 of the upcoming Islamabad Talks on April 11 but decided to be mum about that. Per this video, there are already several technical experts versed in international laws/treaties present in Islamabad to work on a UNSC backed resolution to end this conflict. Hamid is also saying that Trump himself may go to Islamabad as long as the Iranian President Pezeskian is also there to sign the historic agreement. Mir is also saying that Netanyahu was getting the updates while the meeting in Islamabad was going on. There is also a mention of the Chinese angle in this, which is significant.
Well worth watching if you have 13 minutes. English captions available.

The Jewish Harvard professor, Samuel Huntington in his 1990s book "Clash of Civilizations, Remaking of the New World Order" wrote:
An Islamic core state has to possess the economic resources, military
power, organizational competence, and Islamic identity and
commitment to provide both political and religious leadership to the
ummah. Six states are from time to time mentioned as possible leaders
of Islam; at present, no one of them, however, has all the requisites to
be an effective core state.
Indonesia is the largest Muslim country and
is growing rapidly economically. It is, however, located on the
periphery of Islam far removed from its Arab center; its Islam is of the
relaxed, Southeast Asian variety; and its people and culture are a
mixture of indigenous, Muslim, Hindu, Chinese, and Christian
influences.
Egypt is an Arab country, with a large population, a central,
strategically important geographical location in the Middle East, and
the leading institution of Islamic learning, Al-Azhar University. It is
also, however, a poor country, economically p. 178 dependent on the
United States, Western-controlled international institutions, and oilrich
Arab states.
Iran, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia have all explicitly defined
themselves as Muslim countries and have actively attempted to
exercise influence in and provide leadership to the ummah. In so doing,
they have competed with each other in sponsoring organizations,
funding Islamic groups, providing support to the fighters in
Afghanistan, and wooing the Muslim peoples of Central Asia.
Iran has the size, central location, population, historical traditions, oil resources,
and middle level of economic development which would qualify it to
be an Islamic core state. Ninety percent of Muslims, however, are
Sunni and Iran is Shi’ite; Persian is a distant second to Arabic as the
language of Islam; and the relations between Persians and Arabs have
historically been antagonistic.
Pakistan has size, population, and military prowess, and its leaders
have fairly consistently tried to claim a role as the promoter of
cooperation among Islamic states and the speaker for Islam to the rest
of the world. Pakistan is, however, relatively poor and suffers serious
internal ethnic and regional divisions, a record of political instability,
and a fixation on the problem of its security vis-à-vis India, which
accounts in large part for its interest in developing close relations with
other Islamic countries, as well as non-Muslim powers like China and
the United States.
Saudi Arabia was the original home of Islam; Islam’s holiest shrines
are there; its language is Islam’s language; it has the world’s largest oil
reserves and the resulting financial influence; and its government has
shaped Saudi society along strictly Islamic lines. During the 1970s and
1980s Saudi Arabia was the single most influential force in Islam. It
spent billions of dollars supporting Muslim causes throughout the
world, from mosques and textbooks to political parties, Islamist
organizations, and terrorist movements, and was relatively
indiscriminate in doing so. On the other hand, its relatively small
population and geographical vulnerability make it dependent on the
West for its security.
Finally, Turkey has the history, population, middle level of economic
development, national coherence, and military tradition and
competence to be the core state of Islam. In explicitly defining Turkey
as a secular society, however, Ataturk prevented the Turkish republic
from succeeding the Ottoman empire in that role. Turkey could not
even become a charter member of the OIC because of the commitment
to secularism in its constitution. So long as Turkey continues to define
itself as a secular state, leadership of Islam is denied it.

GCC states major issue, oil rigging companies are US or European, banking channels are Western, transportation system is Western, business infrastructure is tally under US Western laws and regulation. Basically, nothing in there end. Unfortunately, this is war of resources. For example Iraq whole oil infrastructure operated by US Halliburton, from refining to transportation to US.
