'The Art of War', because none of these dunces have.
* "If your opponent is of choleric temperament, seek to irritate him."
* "Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win."
* "The general who advances without coveting fame and retreats without fearing disgrace, whose only thought is to protect his country and do good service for his sovereign, is the jewel of the kingdom."
* "Treat your men as you would your own beloved sons. And they will follow you into the deepest valley."
* **"Move not unless you see an advantage; use not your troops unless there is something to be gained; fight not unless the position is critical. No ruler should put troops into the field merely to gratify his own spleen; no general should fight a battle simply out of pique. If it is to your advantage, make a forward move; if not, stay where you are. Anger may in time change to gladness; vexation may be succeeded by content. But a kingdom that has once been destroyed can never come again into being; nor can the dead ever be brought back to life. Hence the enlightened ruler is heedful, and the good general full of caution. This is the way to keep a country at peace and an army intact."**

Offering your troops as UN Peacekeepers is a bit of a different thing though than what Pakistan is doing for KSA. It is arguably a bit more formal/respectable and is less threatening to the sovereignty of the country you send them to. Plus it is a way to not have to pay the expense of having a standing army and get them access to equipment/training on the dine of wealthier countries. There are many countries that are well known for having their armies largely be subsidized by UN deployments (South Asia and maritime Southeast Asia are especially prolific at this).

So, if I understand correctly:

2. Iran will be attacking USA and Israel.
3. If Iran attacks Saudi Arabia, then Pakistan has to attack Iran.
4. Pakistan + Gulf Countries + USA + Israel VERSUS Iran.
5. Pakistan (which doesn't recognize Israel and has in its passport that the Pakistani passport is not valid for Israel), will attack an enemy of Israel?
6. Pakistan's biggest Sovereign Creditor is China. Most Pakistani Jets and Weapons are Chinese.
7. China is allegedly supporting Iran.
8. Pakistan will fight against an alleged ally of China with Chinese weapons.
I'm curious to see how the Pakistani public reacts to them being in a conflict on the same side as Israel.

Nothing like the US ww2 strategy, lol. The US specifically didn't sell to opposing countries like Japan because of their hostile acts in China. It wasn't as if the US was opportunist about it either, they halted profits and sales to countries that were hostile to their allies before the US entered WW2. It was one of the primary reasons Japan decided to attack Pearl Harbour. The US was closer to isolationist during that time than they were war profiteers like China today.
If it wasn't for the US Congress agreeing to the Lend-Lease act in 41 we wouldn't have the same Europe today. It was probably the most significant decision by any country during the WW2 era, the US essentially agreed to become the sole equipment supplier for the Allies throughout the 40s without any monetary compensation until after the War. You will never see China do this, their economy couldn't sustain it today. In today's numbers the US government and public took on over $800 billion in debt to fund the equipment being sent to the allies.

I don't think we have any leaders or countries in the world that would do the same thing today, unless things got as bad as WW2. If Europe had fallen at all(I think it would have without the Lend-Lease act), the US would have been crushed economically against a victorious Axis.
As an American I view it very similar to our constant fight for national healthcare. We don't have politicians today that are willing to go as far as FDR and the US Congress did during WW2. So instead we have an exploitive shitty version(ACA) of it that continues to plague the country, all because our politicians just aren't what they could be.

China is neutral in the same way Switzerland was during WW2: Neutrality is not always a virtue, but it is a stance of cynical efficiency. No one expects China to be especially close, culturally or politically, to Iran's theocracy. They will just happily sell stuff to anyone who is having a hard time with western sanctions. Make it unprofitable (as has been the case on direct military equipment towards Russia) and they will stop without batting an eye.

The Saudi royal family is also genuinely concerned about their military getting too competent & being able to overthrow them. A war with Iran (and any proxy factions) escalating might see the need to use a lot of troops, and being able to rent Pakistani soldiers could help ensure the Pakistanis get all there experience, and that Saudi troops remain incompetent & unfamiliar with substantial fighting. Plus, the Saudis are probably running out of the Sudanese child soldiers they've been buying the past few years.

It's probably a formality at this point for both sides. "Yes we were up for negotiation, we talked but it didn't work out". This can be justification for the war continuing.

Not only that, they want the US to remove all forces in the region, stop attacking their proxies(hezbollah hamas), and remove all sanctions.
That’s f****** nuts, no way USA will agree to any of that.

Someone said that we must not forget the Strait was open for navigation, to begin with. This attack on Iran has achieved nothing. Only made things worse for the whole world.

Probably not. Pakistan seems to have good relations with both of them. It was plainly obvious that Pakistan would support Saudi Arabia if it came down to it even before the talks, so there’s no way Iran didn’t already expect this

They are designed to be c*** because Saudi is afraid that if the military becomes powerful someday, there might be a military coup. The best bet is to pay others to fight —pay Pakistan and Americans

Pakistan has a defence agreement with Saudi don't they? While it might be uncomfortable to be in conflict with Iran, Pakistan does have a commitment to support Saudi? I think that's why they pushed for the peace talks to avoid this uncomfortable situation.

Pakistan cant be trusted. Saudi getting p*** troops while Iran and US are having a war negotiation, IN pakistan. One thing this war would ensure that Saudi, UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Omanz would never want this to happen again, and allowing Iran military to continue domination would not be acceptable. So at some point if not US or Israel, these states would fight Iran. Guess what, Pakistan would be supplying troops , fighting Iran. Iran is basically dealing with Hyenas.

Saudi is looking for a replacement for US forces and eventually petrodollar. The whole reason US justified attacks on Iran is to safeguard their interests in the region. The interests being the petrodollar system. Looks like it failed spectacularly. Especially if Iran does not collapse and other countries start securing the gulf states.

How are the 13k troops supposed to stop kamikaze drones though.. with bullets? Wouldn't it be more beneficial to send in air defense tech and not more soldiers who cant catch drones out of air.

Maybe but since pakistan mediation a peace negotiations. Shouldn't they be neutral, or atleast try to act like they are neutral during the negotiations.
But with in 24 hours of them chosen as mediator they give atleast 2 anti-israeli statement that too on record and by top level ministers. And now sending troops to Saudi which is also a part of war against Iran.
I know geopolitics is complex like chess with many layers of strategy and shits but I can't make sense of this situation in any way with pakistan.

Pakistan's primary goal is maintaining their own interests and to that end, even if the ceasefire fails/failed, they were able to get some [tankers through the strait](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/iran-strait-of-hormuz-oil-countries-india-pakistan-philippines-b2952766.html) (as one obvious example of how they benefited). And while they may hate Israel, maintaining their relationship with the Arabian peninsula by upholding treaties like this one with SA is ultimately more important.

Doesn't matter tbh. Pakistan had good reason to try for peace here because they do need energy from Iran themselves. They also have a defence pact with Saudi which they are obligated to fulfill. So they have interests in both Iran, Saudi and the US diplomatically.
