I didn’t have “possible nuclear exchange in the Middle East” on my bingo card for this year 😐
Edit: and yeah, that’d probably quickly spiral out of control into WW3. Maybe the Star Trek timeline is actually gonna pan out…? Sucks that we have to live through the horrifying part :(
Not really. With this defense pact, if Israel gets wild and decides to attack Saudi Arabia for some reason, Pakistan would go in on SA’s side… which would probably trigger all of Israel’s neighbors to attack Israel… which would probably trigger Israel to start nuking its neighbors… which would very plausibly include SA… which would trigger Pakistan to nuke Israel. And then you have WW3, because things would absolutely spiral from there.
There is a 0% chance Pakistan launches a nuclear missle to their west. India will launch their full aresenal yhe moment they detect a missle launch from Pakistan
Oooh that’s… a fascinating development.

Really? I had it on mine right after Israel and the US attacked Iran earlier this year.
Middle east? It’s more likely India and Pakistan fight.

Pretty sure Pakistan has more ways to deliver than just MRBMs. And toss-bombing is a thing.
OK? There’s no reason to believe this will happen soon whereas Pakistan and India have actively fought for decades.
Also why do you think Saudi Arabia is neighbors with Israel? Last I checked they have no shared border.
