(im having deja vu)

Likely responses (to NPC maker):

Note that most MEP members joined as either Neutral third party, prevention of foreign alliances from forcing them in the war (ICMFD), and protection against communism. A War (let alone an offensive one) would make them split.

Denies


 * Syria denies membership of MEP, they do not want to align themselves with Communist Supporters


 * North yemen chooses not to join the war against ICMFD, unlike South Yemen, they are a pro-capitalist and democratic state that originally joined to prevent the soviets/communism from spreading in the Middle-east. they would only unite with South Yemen if South Yemen does not join the war (and is not socialist)


 * Pakistan is not sure, (despite a real life Paki-Indian War), Pakistan is in two different places. If they join iran they would fall into a civil war with East Pakistan (Bangladesh, surrounded by Indian forces and pro-western) and West Pakistan. They wish to remain neutral unless Afghanistan is taken or the war looks in favor


 * Lebanon: Look at our size, and look at Israel


 * Palestine: We don't want a genocide.


 * Jordan: Israeli army is backed by African forces, and we are their neighbors. But if things turn into favor we may likely join.

Accepts


 * Oman: Accepts mainly to obtain UAE for access to resources such as Oil.


 * South Yemen: Accepts mainly due to the fact of a war to fight off Capitalism and imperialism in the middle-east (Ironically they are also in it for conquest)
