The US have promised to ethnically cleanse Gaza of the Palestinian population.
This is for the ultimate goal of the creation of Greater Israel, where Arabs live as 2nd class citizens under the Zionist apartheid.
The Arab world must wake up, here's what they must do.
🧵1/16
First thing first, get rid of all the weapons systems of Western origin.
All of it, even the European ones has backdoors that prevents their usage against Israel.
Might is Right, you don't have any bargaining power unless you have the fire power to back it up.
Then splurge on Chinese weapons.
Currently, China is the only non-Western weapon exporter that can provide full sets of weapon systems on time.
So what kind of weapons do the Arab nations need?
For countries with no extensive weapons manufacturing capabilities, the types of war you fight is determined by the weapons you have/buy.
And the types of weapons you buy, is determined by your enemy, your strategic goal and your geography.
West Asia sits at the junction of Afro-Eurasia.
Arab nations can use their strategic location as leverage to threaten the West, as the Houthis have done, but at a much larger scale, controlling sea lines of communication from land.
To threaten sea lines of communication, Arab nations need ballistic and cruise missiles. A lot of them.
Due to limitations from international law, we cannot sell missiles with ranges more than 300km. But it does not prevent countries from joint development.
More missiles, especially the anti-ship ballistic type is needed, and we have plenty of them.
DF-21, YJ-21, YJ-12, CM-401 we have them all.
In terms of air force, Arab nations needs to have a small, advanced and nimble air fleet.
It's difficult for Arab nations to go head to head against the US and Israel in the air.
So they must buy the right weapons to fight the right kind of wars against a specific enemy.
That Right Weapon, is the J-31 stealth fighter. Some Arab countries have been trying to purchase the American F-35.
Considering recent event, this is obviously a strategic mistake.
Hence the J-31 which is superior to the F-35 in many respects is your only option.
A small core of J-31 supplemented by a larger fleet of the multi-role J-10CE will create a formidable air force.
Another important air asset is the AEW&C (airborne radar and command) such as the KJ-500.
So what do I mean by nimble air force to confront Israel and the US?
Small, advanced and nimble, means you don't go head to head, plane for plane against Israel and the US.
The goal is to draw the enemy into your territory.
Build enough reserve airports and airstrips to redeploy this nimble air force.
Fight a guerrilla warfare in the air.
Attrite not with your air force, but with a guerilla style air defense tactics. Draw them in and grind them down.
Splurge on air defense systems such as the Chinese DK-10, this is a superior version of the NASAMS used by Ukraine to fight their guerilla style air defense.
Another important air components are the drones, this along with missiles will be the Arab nations' main strike option against Israel itself.
China has the best and most comprehensive set of drones, from stealthy ones to expendable ones, we have them all.
When it comes to the ground forces, this new army of Arab nations need to be nimble, and be able to operate away from logistic centers for prolonged period of time.
Hence the weapon system used by the Medium Combined Arms Brigade of the PLA is a great template.
Draw them in, let the desert swallow them while you kill them with a thousand cuts.
It may sound melodramatic, but as the US hegemony is increasingly challenged, its ability to exploit the world with its US dollar hegemony diminishes, the US will be increasingly belligerent.
You're either sitting at the table or on the menu.
The Arab world have become too complacent, thinking their leverage in oil can save them, but as the world moves away from oil, your bargaining power diminishes.
Refitting your armies with Chinese weapons is the only way out.
PS:
Some people questions the courage of Arab leaders.
That's a valid point. However, those countries cannot have the courage to stand up to the US when their weapons can be shut down by Pentagon.
With Chinese weapons, they will at least have the option to fight back.

Comprehensive minute-by-minute illustrative thread, on how the Chinese aircraft carrier Fujian conducts cyclical attack operation.
🧵1/15
The optimal air wing composition:
⏺️24x J-35(green & red), divided into 2 attack waves of 12 each.
⏺️24x J-15T (blue & purple), divided into 2 attack waves of 12 each.
⏺️4x J-15D electronic warfare fighter (orange).
⏺️4x J-600 AEW&C (light blue).
⏺️~10 helicopters (black) for anti-submarine, search and rescue missions.
Cyclical operations are the most common attack mode of aircraft carriers, they divide the carrier airwing into attack waves and launch them with intervals in between.
This allows sustained operation for a long periods of time.
🔹Wave 1 (green J-35 stealth fighters) takes 12 minutes to launch 12x J-35, + 2 min to launch 1x KJ-600 (light blue) + 1 min to launch 2x J-15D EW fighter (orange).
= 15 minutes.
**Catapults can launch aircraft with 30 second intervals.
A comprehensive thread about Chinese aircraft carrier operations.
How do we compare to the US aircraft carrier operations?
For the PLA navy, there are 2 main types of carrier attacks:
🔹Full-deck strike (Full deck sortie).
🔹Cyclical operation.
1/11🧵
Full-deck strike is when we launch all fighters in a single strike package.
Cyclical operation is when we divide the fighters into attack waves, and launch them sequentially.
Full-deck strike is used when you want overwhelming firepower delivered in the initial phase of combat.
However, full-deck strike cannot be sustained for long, since all the fighters would need to land in a short span of time, which puts immense pressure on the deck crew to rearm and refuel.
The most important characteristics to 6th generation fighter is stealth.
6th gen stealth means, All-Aspect Stealth (stealthy from all directions) and Broadband (multi-spectrum) stealth.
What is it, how does it work?
1/8🧵
5th gen stealth is achieved by aligning control surfaces to as fewer directions as possible, this edge alignment ensures radar signals are reflected back towards specific directions.
This is a simplified explanation without going into specular reflections or creeping waves etc.
HOWEVER, the problem with 5th gen stealth is that they are detectable by low frequency radars with long wavelengths.
Resonant scattering is when radar waves interact with a target in a way that causes them to be scattered strongly, often at specific frequencies, due to the target's size and shape resonating with the radar's wavelength.
India will most likely procure the Su-57 to meet the challenges of Pakistan's J-35A supplied by China.
How does the 2 fighter compare?
An objective comparison between the J-35a and Su-57.
Thread🧵
🔹Stealth
From edge alignment to detail treatment, the J-35A is leagues ahead of Su-57, which has many protrusions and inconsistent surface treatment that are detrimental to radar stealth.
Issues such as right angled seams, rounded engine protrusions, and the glaring "pimple" of an EOTS at the front, will all contribute to radar reflections.
This is how China's PLA is changing to meet the challenge in the age of drone warfare.🧵1/6
This is the new 35mm revolver cannon SHORAD system (Short Range Air Defense), with the new HQ-13 short range missile.
They will be mass deployed with our medium and light combined arms brigades.
Previously, as in around the early years of the Ukraine war. Our go to SHORAD system force design down to the company level, revolved around the Type-625 system. (pictured below)
But as we observed the Ukraine war, we've realized this is not enough.
We need credible mechanized air defense systems down to the platoon level.
Only then, can our armored, mechanized and motorized formations punch through an open field without being bogged down, and hunted by loiter munitions and drones.
