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.
