The Pakistanis have been made to eat crow with a side helping of sausages. Not only did ICC remain firm and not remove Andy Pycroft which was the PCBs “non-negotiable” demand, but he went on to officiate their match. And even though Pakis claimed moral victory by saying Pycroft apologised, he did nothing of that sort: he just expressed regret for miscommunication.

Hussain Haqqani notes about the Paki-Saudi treaty: , “Most likely, Pakistan will now be able to buy US weapons it needs, with Saudi money, which [the] Trump administration seems willing to sell. Similar purchases occurred in the 1970s when the US Congress was unwilling to approve loans under Foreign Military Funding (FMF) for Pakistan.”

Saudi Arabia spend as much on defense as India (around $78 billion).

1. How many shiny new toys can the Pak army afford now?
2. Will Pakistan get bases in Saudi Arabia?
3. Will attacks by BLA, TTP on Pakistan be attacks on Saudi Arabia?
4. If we think that the Paki army is a bit stretched now, will it have to grow (with Saudi money) to be a “regional guarantor of security”?
5. Will Pakistan be drawn into war with the Houthis?
6. What is the impact on Iran?

Why do the Saudis need to fear Israelis . They are member of Abe Accord and ksa royal family is against Muslim brotherhood and Hamas and Qatar . I don't get it .

I have a different take on this. Saudis had already funded the Paki bum years ago and had an agreement to gain access to it when needed. They never made this arrangement formal or public as long as unkil's military base in their soil provided an easier safety guarantee. Now after attack on Hamas in Doha, unkil's torn langoti is flying in the wind for everyone to see. Also with Israel on their side and Iran subdued, as of now, Saudis might think this is the right time to come out of the closet and make a claim on that atim bum. Wise move? Time will tell.

One thing is certain. Kirana hills will suddenly feature in the potential target list of may more countries from now on. The paki nukular umbrella graduated from being India's headache to West Asia's headache.

Dilbu ji,

“Most likely, pakistan will now be able to buy us weapons it needs, with saudi money"

This goes against the geopolitical and supreme national interests of India in particular, while leaving the cheen bosses extremely unhappy too

we will need viable options to counter threats from this emerging coalition of the jihadis

BTW, Dilbu ji,

Maintain good health, regular exercise, nutritious diet, and stay match fit

by the way things are panning out and what with the global and regional dynamics that are changing almost daily, we will have urgent need your unparalleled hex powers.

I think this is as much threat Israel can get from a nuclear power , wonder what their response is
