French, ... sent three men from their secret force, t ...
AB you must be a fanatic Indian the way you are trying to spread lies in order to prove your point. Oh Bhai there were 200-500 wahabi militants holed up in Kaaba. You want to tell us that 3 Frenchmen came and rescued kaaba.
hhahhahahahahahha.
So these three Frenchmen were not just rambos, they were super duper rambos. Do you even know how rescue ops are carried out?
You remember the siege of Golden temple? It was a similar situation. So you think Indian army would send 3 commandos to clean up large building like Golden temple?
Have you been to Kaaba? Do you know how big it is?
Three to five Frenchmen were there as advisors and not 'trainers'. You don't start training your commandos AFTER you have been occupied.
hahahha. you are the jokester.
FYI. Saudis couldn't deploy their troops because
a) they were not trained enough
b) Saudis didn't know which of their troops have turned islamists.
c) Almost all of the Islamists militants were Saudi soldiers so this this was like BDEshi mutiny + Islamists terror.
That's why at least one battalion (1000+) of Pakistani troops was immediately deployed in Kaaba who responded to Islamists-mortars with mortars and Islamists-bullets by bullets, drilled holes in the ceilings and flushed bunkers with pressurized water. That's how Kaaba was cleaned up from the Islamists.
Let me update you on rality ... gulf war happened a decade after the siege of Kaaba !!!!! ..... .
Precisely. At least 1 brigade of Pak army was constantly deployed from 1970s and 1991 Gulf War-I. And siege of Kaba happened in 1979, thus matching the time frame.
what's your point?
....... Zia was marshalling his people to attack the American Embassy ..... ....
If Zia was so anti-American then how come the same Zia became the highest ranking general directly involved in the pro-USA anti-commie campaign?
You don't even know how Zia was a dinner guest at the embassy and the US army bases all through his life.
The same Zia lead the Afghan offensive from the Pakistani GHQ against Commies while Indians were sucking Communist russians.
.... Pakistanis say they care for Palestinians ... it was PLO that bore the brunt of Zia's attack ... so much for Muslim brotherhood ..
Well Pakistani army is a peace keeping force in the Middle East. While many Pakistani civilians have turned Islamists.
So Islamists will support militants while Pak army will try to fight the very militants. What's so hilarious about it? Do you want to support criminals purely based on their religion while ignoring their terror?
Just take off your Indian tainted glasses and things may get better for you (I hope and pray for your wellness).
