    this is a good thing. every nation that wants it should have and share a nuclear program. from weapons to electricity to cancer treatment.

      I agree. Yet these defense pacts against a specific ‘enemy’ usually leads to a spiral of conflicts. We want LESS layers of emnity in the middle east. Not more.

        sure but we have to be ok with pacts even if our propaganda and agitation have “sold” us that those are the bad guys. they’re likely no more bad than our “side” and progress like this is safer than not. look at nato keeping russia at bay?

          Defense blocs are a different matter. Look on a map where NATO members are vs Russia and compare where KSA and Pakistan are compared to Israel.

          Not saying the Middle East shouldn’t show solidarity but it’s a mesh of complex relations and this arbitrary pact just adds to that mess.

            is this not a defense bloc? maybe im confused because i thought it said attacks on one is attacks on all, etc.

              No no when we do it it’s a defense block to protect Freedom loving people when they do it it’s a defense pack that’s designed to spiral into war. Big difference.
