Dubai: Voicing concern that the Muslim world was not doing enough to prevent a war
against Iraq, Pakistan on January 27 asked Organisation of Islamic Countries (OIC),
Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states and Arab League to do more in this
regard.
There was no contact of the Muslim countries with Saddam Hussein and the Iraqi
people, visiting Pakistani Prime Minister Mir Zafarullah Khan Jamali said after
holding talks with UAE President Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan al Nahyan.
He said he regretted that the Muslim 'Ummah' was not doing enough in this regard,
naming the OIC, Arab league and GCC in particular.
Pakistan, being a Muslim country, will be affected by the Iraq war and the "more
religious" political people in the country might take up this issue, Jamali told
editors of the newspapers in Dubai on January 26.
When asked if Pakistan, being a Muslim nuclear power, will be the next US target, he
pointed out that India was also a nuclear power.
