Saudi Arabia has invested in Pakistani nuclear weapons projects, and believes it could obtain atomic bombs at will, a variety of sources have told BBC Newsnight. ... Earlier this year, a senior Nato decision maker told me that he had seen intelligence reporting that nuclear weapons made in Pakistan on behalf of Saudi Arabia are now sitting ready for delivery.
Last month Amos Yadlin, a former head of Israeli military intelligence, told a conference in Sweden that if Iran got the bomb, "the Saudis will not wait one month. They already paid for the bomb, they will go to Pakistan and bring what they need to bring."

But in those days to support India over Pakistan was to support the intentions of the USSR. In those days conservatives tended to lean to Pakistan, leftists toward India. This Cold War strategy illustrates the dangers of a correct short-term strategy causing long-term perils. Now that the Cold War is over, this tale provides a good argument for a more detached, less interventionist foreign policy oriented to long term survival over short term expediencies.

Dr. Strangelove. A cult favorite. I recognized the lines. :)
With a vacuum in the Middle East, all of America's former allies (abandoned by Obama) are scrambling to form alliances and bolster their defenses.
No US leadership = Chaos

I was trying to be objective 2008-2010 but the facts speak for themselves. It's not what I want to believe about the POTUS but the facts on the ground can lead one only to the second category of terms.
The Islamicists would indeed hit Israel, trying to target Israel’s coastal plain, main population center called the “Dan Bloc” (from the Biblical Tribe of Dan).
They have already stated that if they hit Israel’s Arab population centers then those Muslims will be considered honorable “Shahids” or martyrs.
So they don’t care about the Dome of the Rock or Temple Mount. Those places are run by Israel and in cooperation with Jordan.
Everything you state is true and I’m so damn angry at our fake media for denying the truth to people.
There is so much danger around the corner that our treasonous white house is aiding, and it’s all under wraps.
Who are these people?? How many MB have burrowed into every part of this administration and how vulnerable are our troops around the world? It’s just maddening.
Saudi Arabia already owns nukes — they paid for the Paki ones. The Pakis are Sunnis and this would be a direct opposition to Shia Iran
after saudia, then alq
India is not a Moslem nation. most hindus are rabidly antiMoslem --> they've had 1000 years of persecution by Moslems and that gives a bit of an edge....
The Saudis will get the missiles from Pakistan. Pakistan got the missiles from North Korea courtesy China (in exchange for nuclear know-how — the Pakis gave NK the bomb and the NK’s gave the Pakis the missiles to deliver it)
The Bedouin mentality is lazy, but warrior-like, so lazy-warrior. They have no brains. I lived in Bahrain for years and the Bedos are despised there.
yes, the Bactarian camel, the two-humped camel that roams the Baluchi desert and the north-east of Iran
Correct
In 1971, Pakistan had committed genocide against it's own citizen (the Bengalis) and India stepped in to help the Bengalis get their independence as Bangladesh
india could have gone into west pakistan and cut off Baluchistan and the NWFP.
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Looks like we are losing our allies the Saudis. That is not good news for the US dollar.

The fact there is a story means the weapons are already in hand
