It probably would be a bit like Germany getting a nuclear bomb production line in 1933. Great Britain would have felt somewhat queasy at the prospect. France would have thought the Maginot line not such a great thing after all. Stalin would have paled. <A former head of research in Israeli intelligence told the Times that "the Saudis are very concerned about an Iranian nuclear bomb, even more than the Israelis." >

Come to think of it, there is quite a daisy chain of nukes in the area = Russia, North Korea, China, India, Pakistan. Iran is next in the chain.

It seems odd that Saudi Arabia would be more worried about Iranian nukes than Israel. There must be something I don't know about. I suppose it's the old Catholic vs Protestant thing. God can only be on one of their sides.

It's a bit like Wimbledon. Once the Catholics and Protestants have sorted out who has Go- on their side, and the Sunnis and Shiites have had their semi-finals, then the centre-court grand finale at Armageddon can be fought. It should be best out of five.
