Houthis threaten Pakistan with missiles if it joins Saudi Arabia

The Americans or the Saudis weren't able to subdue or defeat the Houthis. I'm not sure if Pakistan would have a better chance. Going nuclear is not an option. If Pakistan ever went nuclear against the houthis, that's an open invitation for India. It's a escalation ladder Pakistan will never go to. Plus every other Nation would jump on Pakistan to de-nuclearize it even those fighting the houthis.

Iran subdued Houthis.

Americans dont seem interested in subdue Houthis, but in keep burning the conflict. Americans when want to solve conflicts, they use money (like they did in 2015 JCPOA with Iran). When they use weapons, it's because keep alive conflict is the target.

Saudis, I dont know what to say about them, and it's always hard to analyze USA vassals behavior, you cant never be sure when it's stupidity and when it's treason.

I agree Pakistan should focus on its own neighborhood. We have enough problems with Afghan terrorists and Indian terrorism and Indian designs to take over Kashmir etc. Pakistan needs to fix its own house and don't get entangled in foreign wars. That's the last thing Pakistan needs.
Houthis attacking Pakistan will be India's wildest dreams coming true....

Right.
And historically, despite the geographic proximity, Pakistan has been staying away from the Middle Eastern quagmaires: The Iran-Iraq war of the 80s, the early 90s war on Iraq, the 2003 attack on Iraq, the Syrian war starting early 2010s, the war between the Houhtis and the Saudies..
But the geography and Pakistan's pathetic economy keep pulling Pakistan into the Middle East, with a rich, powerful neighbor to Pakistan's east ready to pounce at any misstep. What a horrible geopolitics for Pakistan!

Not entirely - the IRGC has long cultivated links in Kandahar.
Those links have been and are being used today as well regarding what happens on the Pakistani border.

Yes they have links but with northern alliance and they do have working relations with TTA but for smuggling related tradings.

What was NA in terms of militia warlords then has been absorbed into TTA and the TTA links can always be upgraded.

If anything, even in the past IRGC links were involved in Shia recruitment for Iranian proxy conflicts from the same border regions within Pakistan & Afghanistan.

Yes even Taliban were and are groups of warlords and smugglers they are quite different from original Talibs rest Iran and P.I always looking for their supports in all Muslims countries and fund / trained them as proxies even they are funding media personalities even in our country to create soft corner for them and act as sleeping cell.

We should stop sympathizing with these blackmailing tactics and always oput forward our interest before theirs fortunately or unfortunately knowingly or unknowingly we Pakistanis are Pan-Islamist even all top leadership of our regime including political leadership this phenomena was worked in late 70s but know even Arabs / Egyptian don't like it at all but we still holding this flag till this date.

There is nothing wrong with Pan Islamism so long as it isnt the primary reason for your existence.
 
This threat may be a wish of some other countries, but I don't think they have the balls to act on it. If they do, well, they should prepare for the consequences. Perhaps think a bit of WHO invested in Gawadar.......do they want to take on 'them' as well?

as the meme lord said, a nothingburger.

Perhaps some entities are just getting triggered due to Pakistan's military assistance to KSA.....

You mean China? They'll just issue a strong statement, that's about it.

Houthis/Yemen or ME in general is NOT our problem and we should absolutely avoid getting involved in this mess. ME is going through extremely challenging times ATM and can explode at anytime - there are a lot players involved Israel/UAE/US/Iran etc - this is neither Pak's backyard, nor our fight. We should tread carefully and absolutely let Arabs sort their own Sh*t out.
 
We Pakistanis are not afraid of some Houthi baboons.

We can Nuke them.
