Makkah Defence Alliance: Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan, news & updates

[Master Chief]

Saudi Arabia should allow Israel to join the melee , Israel will do it for free.

On the contrary, KSA needs to be removed from the orbit of two nations that simply have no concern whatsoever for their worthless goyim lives. It is a simple matter of what is in KSA's interests. This is why the provocations from Sanaa and Tehran are truly stupid and do nothing other than force the Saudis back in the wrong direction and towards Tel Aviv.

 

[Master Chief]

I am not sure what the corrective process is in Saudi politics,

King Faisal would explain it in great detail if he was around.

 

[r3alist]

His war on Yemen has been a disaster. He dance with the Abraham accords has been a disaster. His support of the war on Iran has been a disaster as well.

I am not sure what the corrective process is in Saudi politics, but i would say his position should have become untenable by now ?

Well it seems like Saudi left themselves to external hostage over the last decade.

Military, financially, politically they need stability and oil flowing, they are dependent on external factors heavily


Reasonable framing?; Tolerate Saudi modernization, working with Israel Vs houthis disruption and Iran shadow over them, and the uae is looking to carve Yemen up and control the south. I don't see any wiggle room that moves the needle, maybe USA and Israel intervene return for Saudi recognition of Israel and forcing Pakistan too.

If Pakistan and Turkey get involved it will get messy.

If Pakistan and Turkey get involved it will get messy.

The situation in Yemen require a combined air+ground operation, now KSA has some of the best fighter jets, so they can keep launching air strikes but unless the Yemeni forces show some good fighting skills things won't change, or if KSA wants Pakistan-Turkiye to get involved KSA has to dedicate ground troops to this war, for now they are just providing air cover to mostly Yemeni forces who's performance against Houthis is questionable at best.

What part about standoff warfare do they not understand?

You can't fking do CAS when the opponent has SHORADS.

Weak Egypt



Egyptian President el-Sisi:

I heard a statement by an Israeli official suggesting that we would not go to war because we are afraid of losing Sinai.

I want to tell him: Who told you that we want to go to war?

We have no agenda against anyone.

We have our land. We fought to recover it, and that matter is finished.

Nearly 16 x JFTs and a HQ-9 AD battery are deployed in KSA. The rest of Pakistani contingent has been stationed there since 40 years.

153 Light Air Defence (SP) Regiment of PA had been deployed before in KSA.

Just for the record, the Egyptians fought to recover, for the Israeli's to end up 60 miles from taking Cairo, and to get Sinai back 9 years post-conflict after an agreement.

So, yes, they are afraid of losing it again, as Israel has the upper hand in the region by neutralizing threats on its eastern front; it can fully focus on the western front if need be.

I think 8th Cavalry Regiment, PA, has served with KSA before also. It earned honors too.

KSA gave Pakistan Army access to its french MBTs and French IFVs/APCs. These were the useless AMX-30s and AMX-10P. These were initially 3 x regiments of KSA armored (11th, 12th and 13th).

Later on an independent brigade structure for 3 x Pakistan Army armored units was provided in 90's. 7 Lancers, 8 Cavalry and i think 5 Horse regiment. These were formed as 12th Independent Armored brigade under Brig Ghulam Ahmed.

The real question in these wars is: What's actually the win condition? What is the Saud king hoping to achieve in Yemen? If this is going on for a decade without committing to a full-scale invasion, it surely isn't about taking the land. So what's the point of that war?
