How the second wave of Saudi American "Freedom Fighters" in central Asia meant to counter Iran, are now being used to hinder China's CPEC & 'One Belt, One Road'

It's no secret that ever since the G W Bush presidency, the United States has lost both credibility and influence in Europe. The Silk Road and One Belt, One Road success and recent EU refusal to abandon the Iran nuclear deal and pressure to ban Huawei, are a clear sign that Europe is not putting their own interest second to United States' views and demands.

So what to do when not even your closest allies take you serious anymore? Change your ways? Reckon you've been wrong to forge "evidence" to cause havoc and destruction around the world?
Of course not, just fall back to your old ways of sabotage and support for radical Islamist terrorists created and hosted by your oil barrel the world calls "Saudi" Arabia. Worked out well the first time right?

Initially, the terrorists in Pakistan were meant to be used against Iran. You remember, the other oil barrel who refused to share itself with England and the United States.

Saudi Arabia has been the core cause of destruction, terrorism and economic failure of the Middle East as a whole for decades now. No matter which version of the September 11 attacks you believe, fact remains 15 out of the 19 terrorists were from Saudi Arabia. Most of those 15 have actively fought/trained in Afghanistan, yes that same "freedom fighter on the peace road" Afghanistan (Someone should ask Washington if they still think it's "worth it").

Pakistan is not sitting on a treasure trove of natural resources and just recently, had to sign for another IMF bail out to sustain itself. Pakistan has to make their way by what they trade and make use of their geography. The CPEC is the best and quickest alternative, to the potential "Malacca Dilemma" China could face, where potential hostile or pressured nations, could hamper and block Chinese shipments to and/or from China. The construction of it alone has created thousands of jobs in Pakistan and cost approximately 57 Billion Euros thus far. So why shouldn't Pakistan partake, since it is all for trade and peaceful purposes, why not do what benefits your own country most? Because in the grand scheme of things, it does not benefit Saudi America? Is that what they think the world should base their foreign and domestic policies on?

Pakistan is no longer the nation is used to be when they played a supportive role for terrorism in Afghanistan. This can be most notably seen in the friendly warning Pakistan gave to Turkey in regards to supporting terrorists sent in by Saudi Arabia to fight against the Syrian government.

Initially, Pakistan also wanted no part whatsoever in war against those "freedom fighters" in Afghanistan, but was threatened to do so by the Bush Admin. I believe the exact words were something in the line of "You will cooperate on Afghanistan, or we will bomb you back to the stone age"

Given the public statement of the Baluchistan terrorists directed at China, it's safe to say they realize an attack against Iran by them alone would be futile and single acts of sabotage are only minimally effective against Iranian borders. But sabotaging and waging terror attacks on the infrastructure inside Pakistan's borders to hinder the routes from China to the West, would be much more effective and devastating to Pakistan's economy.

You might have heard of the recent terror attack on a luxury hotel in Pakistan? That was carried out by these "people" and an indication they are more active now in attacks against the Pakistani/Chinese infrastructure.

But that does not mean the Iran plan is off the table. Quite sure that if Saudi America decides to attack Iran, the terror groups from Baluchistan will certainly play a key role. What Pakistan would do then, remains a question, since they have stated multiple times to not want to be involved in a war against Iran and would not tolerate their land being used for one.
