The US bends, provided the bender has the Guts

The US bends provided the bender has the guts to do so.  I am talking about the US and Russia.  Since the Russian President Vladimir Putin has come to the Party in Syria-Iraq against the Islamic State the dice is overturning slowly.  The attacks on IS are increasing.  So far the US maintained its insistence that President Bashar-Al-Assad of Syria will have to step down for the sake of peace in the region.  On the other hand Putin insisted that Assad will continue and will take over the command against IS.  At last US had to bow to Russia on Assad issue.  US Foreign Secretary John Kerry accepted the prolonged demand of Russia that the future of President Assad’s should be decided only by the people of Syria.  Muslim nations’ front against IS seems to be a little visible now with some Muslim Nations having decided finally to fight the IS, terror in the entire world in the name of Islam.  34 nations under the leadership of Saudi Arabia have declared to form a military alliance against the IS.  The combined operation command of the alliance will be set up in Riyadh, the capital city of Saudi Arabia.  Briefing the formation of Islamic Military Alliance, the official communication agency of Saudi Arabia said that the alliance was needed because it is must to face terrorism at all stages and it needs cooperation at various levels.  Rival of Saudi Arabia and Shiiite Iran is not involved in this military alliance of Muslim Nations.  It is notable that Iran’s policy is quite different from Sunni Nations.  It supports the regime of Shia President of Syria, Basher-al-Assad and has sent its forces in Syria to support Asad.  It keeps supporting Shia Hudi rebels in Yemen while Saudi Arabia is conducting military expeditions against them.  Pakistan, Turkey, Maldives, Malaysia, UAE, Egypt and Qatar are included in this Islamic Nations alliance.  Libya and Yemen facing civil war are also included in it.  African Muslim-majority nations like Mali, Chad, Somalia and Nigeria are also included in the alliance.  However Pakistan is surprised as to how Saudi Arabia has included its name in the military alliance of 34 Muslim nations without seeking its consent?  As per Dawn’s report Pakistan;s Foreign Secretary Ezaaz Chowdhary said that he is surprised with the news that Saudi Arabia has included Pakistan in the alliance.  This is not the first instance when Saudi Arabia has included Pakistan without its consent.
