US Study: Saudi Arabia is World’s 9th Most Powerful Country

[Mithridates]

Iran not being in Iraq would have prevented a lot of hell, the 2006-2008 civil war which Iran had a big hand in was a lot more bloody than ISIS. ISIS is entirely Iraqi in its top command from the former regime's military so you can drop that other Arabs story as well.

You should pay compensation

so you like isis?

Borders of the Achaemenid Empire

He wants to build the new safawi majoosi empire

 

[Mithridates]

No I celebrated every bomb against them

but you said they are iraqi

 

[Saddam Hussein]

They are, with different allegiance

Pan Arabism died with Gamal Nasser. If your solution to Turkish and Iranian interference is Pan-Arabism, then that means you're very likely to fail. Pan-Arabism's "attack dog" was Saddam, and he's gone. Daddy America will not likely interfere on your behalf anymore ,and even if US does, it will likely be at a very steep price.

Don’t link pan Arabism with the failures of some leaders like Assad,gaddafi,Nasser or saddam

I guess i'm right then.


You're right- hypothetically.

Problem is, the most motivating factor for people in this day and age is national/nation state interest. Not religion, not ethnic group(Arab), National interest. This is why arabs arent and cant unite effectively today- They all have different national interests. Arabs can look at each other and say- we speak the same language, have the same ethnic blood, follow the same religion, but thats not enough IF their national interests dont align.


And US and EU arent interfering in your countries? Your visible "partnerships" have only provided the best route for western interference. I'm just playing devil's advocate. Good example- Iraq cant even get the US out of its miitary bases in Iraq.

Yes but they are not interfering in the name of Islam and don’t have much donkeys in our countries sympathies with them in the name of the religion

No problem with pan Arabism, but with the part where you want a block against fellow Muslim nations. That is not the prophet's teaching, were they?



Lol, entire world is taking advantage of you, if anything, Turkeye and Iran seem to be trying their level to save the parts within their proximity. It is unbelievable that you guys failed to realize how everyone is exploiting you guys.

I know that but turkey and Iran are more damaging to the Arab countries due religion unlike the USA or Britain which they have interests that are related to oil

Islamic Terrorism comes from Arab countries such as KSA, UAE and Qatar.

How is Turkey damaging Arab countries with Religion, maybe Iran with their Shia corridor dreams...

Erdogan and his muslim brotherhood connections and new-ottomanism ideology are very damaged and yes we are aware of KSA and Qatar which is a close ally of erdogan

Doesn't even exists.

A unified Arab state would create a major power and easily deter Turkey and Iran both from their cancerous interference which they only manage after Syria and Iraq descended into US-led wars chaos. infact, if that happens it's time to grab lands and expand the Arab world which would be an easy task. There must be a renewed process of Arabization.

Except that it's only a dream that will never materialize. Arabs are disunited people.

Saudi Arabia has ranked as the ninth most powerful country in the world according to a US study published by the Business Insider magazine on Saturday.

The US News and World Report placed the US at the top of the list, followed by Russia, China, Germany and Britain.

The rankings look at a country's political and financial influences, as well as its international and alliances, the strength of its military and how it acts as an international leader.

The rankings come as part of US News and World Report's "2019 Best Countries" ranking in collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania, which surveyed more than 20,000 people on their opinions of 80 countries.

The top ten countries also included France, Japan and South Korea and the United Arab Emirates taking the eleventh spot.
