“We support Israeli annexation” says Saudi journalist Abdulhameed Al-Ghobai
Ghobaray Saab! YOU speak for yourself ONLY.
Not really Doctor Saab, during the 60s and 70s there was this movement to gather all Arab nations by leaders like Jamal Abudl Nasser and it worked for a while but as time progressed, each country and its interests, political alliances and directions drifted apart from others. From protecting Arab interests its gone to protect their own interests.
I'll be LQQKING forward for the 2nd leg of Arab Spring
And this is exactly why this whole notion of an Arab bloc has been broken apart. Each country is concentrating on itself rather than some union. Even the Arabs with most in common and the only remaining bloc the GCC is experiencing difficulty with Qatar.
And one of the biggest reason for the Arab nations now not really caring about Palestine is because since the 60s and 70 a lot of Palestinians have migrated to these Arab countries and they have seen them first hand. I have spent more than 4 decades in the gulf and I can tell you without a doubt that Palestinians are the biggest mother truckers around, in all my time I have not met one single decent palestinian. All of them harami no 1. Specially if you see how they treat expats from the subcontinent like India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka etc etc. its worse than how the Israelis treat them.
It has been heard plenty of times here on the streets and in conversations that what ever is happening to the Palestinians is God's wrath for being such big A.holes.
I can bet you if a large number of Palestinians migrated to Pakistan with in a few years the Pakistani public entire view of this conflict with change.
Also lets not confuse this with thinking I condone the illegal military occupation of Palestine, but lets just say I would rather not see a single drop of Pakistani blood shed for these thankless and shameless people.
