[mukto-mona] Pakistan's Looming Disaster In Yemen



Pakistan's Looming Disaster in Yemen



<<  Explicit Pakistani involvement in Yemen could be dangerous for it, both militarily and politically. Although Pakistan's population is majority Sunni, unlike Saudi Arabia or Iran, Pakistan was not founded on the basis of any particular understanding of Islam. Rather, Pakistan was founded on the more general basis of Islam as a whole, in order to serve as a homeland for South Asia's Muslims, whether Sunni or Shia. Around a fifth of Pakistan's population, or some 30-40 million people, are Shia, giving it (or neighboring India) the second largest Shiite population in the world outside of Iran.  >>
