Saudi Military Alliance Rejected by Pakistani Senators

Wednesday 23 December 2015
Saudi Military Alliance Rejected by Pakistani Senators
Alwaght-The recently announced Saudi military alliance continues to face opposition from listed countries with the latest being Pakistan, whose senators have rejected the coalition.
In a heated parliamentary debate on Tuesday, Pakistani senators have voiced their strong objection to their country being part of a recently-announced Saudi-led alliance allegedly formed ostensibly to “fight terrorism”.
The senators from Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and other opposition groups grilled Pakistan Prime Minister Adviser on National Security and Foreign Affairs, Sartaj Aziz, over the role Pakistan is set to play in the coalition.
The parliamentarians blamed the government of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif of bypassing the parliament in its decision to join the controversial alliance.
The enraged senators expressed reservations about whether the Saudi-led alliance can be a unified Muslim front against extremists. They also demanded to know why the new coalition does not include major Muslim countries involved in the war on terror such as Iran, Iraq, and Syria.
Senator Syed Tahir Hussain Mashhadi condemned the Saudi regime for destroying Muslim unity.
“We are not going to fight against our own people, we will not fight against Muslims, we did not fight in Yemen, we will not fight anywhere else,” Mashhadi noted.
Last week, Saudi Arabia said it had patched together a coalition of 34 Muslim countries to fight against terrorism in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Egypt and Syria.
Already major Muslim countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia and Oman have said they will not join the Saudi-led military alliance.
Saudi Arabia claims to have formed an alliance to fight terrorism while it is a known fact that it is one of the main supporters of  Takfiri terrorists groups especially ISIS in Syria and Iraq.
