Pakistani defence minister calls for 'united military front' against Israel Pakistan’s defence minister Khawaja Asif has called for a “united military front” against Israel, calling it “a threat to the entire Muslim world”. In an interview with Pakistan’s Geo News, after the country signed a landmark defence agreement with Turkey and Saudi Arabia, Asif said: “Given Israel’s current conduct, as well as the historical evidence of what it has been doing, at one stage, in 1948 or 1947, what I consider an illegitimate state came into being. It was, I believe, a product of the Balfour Declaration.
