Firenze, he is correct in his explanation buddy. Syrian backed government was toppled in Lebanon recently.
Correction you are right, i meant Hezbollah is supported by Iran & Syria and both countries are using it to advance their goals of regional dominance based on Shi'ites ideology.
Regardless of who is right & wrong, behind the scene an ideological war of dominance is going on between Shia & Sunni. I fear for the war between Saudi & Iran on the model of Iraq & Iran.
If the tensions escalate which it seems are, Pakistan will go with Saudi not because of oil-money, but mainly because of Mecca & Medina. Crossing Fingers.

@firenze, I agree with all your points. Pakistan needs to cut the "Muslim Brother" crap and get it's priorities straight, put it's own interests at Number 1.
Personally, I believe Pakistan should be taking the lead against Iran's nuclear progaramme. It's the country that stands to lost the most, but most Pakistanis don't understand this. They think Iran is their "Muslim Brother" lmao!
So you think is perfectly fine for Pakistan to fund and support Jundullah, a terrorist group against Iran which bombs worshipers?
Well if it is perfectly fine for Iran to support terrorists groups with-in Pakistani & also in Afghanistan against Pakistan interests. Then i find it perfectly fine for Pakistani's to do the same.

Pakistan should start working on its own program for nuclear energy, instead of worrying about Iran.

They are - Being a Muslim Country, but on both sides this brother-ism is hijacked by extreme sides. Now it's more of ideological clash, which is imminent. Sadly innocent Muslims regardless of which sect they follow are brain washed to such levels in last few centuries that a bloodbath will happen every time a gap is created either by external or internal factors.

BTW, this is a pretty stupid concept if you think about it. If you take a secular view, Mecca and Madina are just cities. Just like the thousands others in this world. Religiously, they belong to the Muslim Ummah, not these these idiot descents of Turks masquerading as the leaders of the Muslims.

I mentioned the Mecca & Medina because the majority of Pakistani's can be emotionally blackmail over it. An example can be grand mosque seizure in 1979 by some Islamists but Pakistani's burned down the US Embassy Islamabad in retaliation.

Then this so called brotherhood should work both ways. Brothers help each other. We sure can do with some free gas and oil. But of course, in today's world it doesn't work like that. That's why this whole mindset is flawed.
Pakistan can help GCC better then western counterparts in providing tactical & warfare experience. In return GCC-sponosor multi bilion package can be secure.
Not only funds but the access to the market to the Pakistani business men.... if Pakistan won't do it, i am India and other countries would be keen to jump in...
Just last year, some Iranian General was openely calling for war against Pakistan, persians require their ass kicked hard.
If anyone thinks that Iran is Pakistan's brotherly-friendly-homely country then be informed that Hashmi Rafsnjani (if comes to govt) may declare an open war on Pakistan.... not to mention that it was Iran who first asked for assistance to develop nuclear reactor and later blamed everything on Pakistan... persians are the last thing we should be trusting...
we already went in proxy war with Iran.. when Iran was supporting Northern Alliance and Pakistan was supporting Taliban.... Iranian have long history for supporting, funding Shia terrorist groups in Pakistan.. if one evil is fighting other ( Saudi vs Iran) on open grounds, we should benefit from it by all means..

We can learn a lot from the US about this. Be an "trusted ally" to both sides and then sit back and watch em burn :p

tell that to masses in Pakistan and you will charged with blasphemy and your PUTLAY will be hanged in every town and city of Pakistan
