Didnt know we had diplomatic relations with them.
It didn't say that we had diplomatic relations, only a commercial relationship instead.
Re: Pakistan imported military hardware from Israel
ISPR is refusing this news.
ISPR denies media reports of Pakistan purchasing defence equipment from Israel | Pakistan - geo.tv
Re: Pakistan imported military hardware from Israel
Instead of refuting this news on Pakistani media, ISPR should sue Haaretz (Israeli Newspaper) if the news is wrong.

Sue in which country's court? Given that Haaretz is based in Israel and that the offence was committed there, the lawsuit would need to be filed there, which would require recognition of the Israeli legal system, which would require recognition of the Israeli state.
Re: Pakistan imported military hardware from Israel
^ anyways, ISPR's clarification in Pakistan also does not hold any weight.
Re: Pakistan imported military hardware from Israel
Interestingly, on the website of the British government department that Haaretz cited, I can't find the report that they refer to.

PressTV - ‘Israel selling Pakistan military equipment’
It seems as if they are trading indirectly (through Turkey)
Re: Pakistan imported military hardware from Israel
Haaretz report holds weight, but ISPR refutation doesn't? OK.
and by the way its not new, if i'm not wrong army has been receiving Israeli manufactured arms during the afghan war, via 3rd parties
Re: Pakistan imported military hardware from Israel
Iran itself received spare parts through israel in the infamous Iran-Contra affair.
Re: Pakistan imported military hardware from Israel
Well..Pakistan has indirect relationship with Israel through Turkey. That was in Musharraf time...but i am not sure..if it is still same. So i can believe to an extent..Pakistan may have purchased parts from Israel. Or heck..most of the defense related parts are made by Israeli companies mostly. So i am not surprised.

Re: Pakistan imported military hardware from Israel

israel in on no.2 after us in making smart chips, so all dumb countries went to buy stuff from it.
Only thing make sure you don't go to war with country who is selling you defence hardware.
Your "state of art" equipment would collapsed the way you never read in comic books.
some what like, iraq and how its whole army was practically blind on 2nd or 3rd day of invasion..
Re: Pakistan imported military hardware from Israel
What's a big deal. Pakistan should recognize Israel.
Spending billions on purchasing arms from any country is waste of tax payers money should have been invested on education and health care.
