Re: Redrawing the Middle East
Also please note that such an Arab shia state would be a super petro state. Because Saudi is world’s no. 1 exporter of oil and most of its oil come from the very regions which are shown in that supposed Arab shia state.
Now considering that American has invested so much in keeping Saudis and its oil to their side, why would America want to disintegrate Saudi state?
America has guaranteed from Saudi regarding continued flow of oil to the West and it does not even know the policies of that Arab shia state. This is another reason such a state would never be supported by the US.
**The point of it all is that this much talked-about map is nonsense and like I said, it is just a brain-f*rt of some dumb wit American. The American government itself can never support such a map.

As far as Pakistan and Balochistan, well, it is in our own hands, and not in American hands. If we listen to Baloch, start giving them their due share for using their natural resources, etc., then the situation may improve there. If we lose Balochistan then it will be our own wrong-doing. Others can take advantage of our weaknesses but it is us ourselves who are responsible for creating this weakness. India supported Mukti Bahni, but India would not have been able to divide Pakistan if Bengalis were with us.
The map has been made by a retired colonel of the American War College, and was made in tandem with a new terminology coined by Condaleeza Rice (called the new middle east).
