    You don’t think the Israelis lash out and nuke someone in that scenario? I can’t recall the exact source (and too lazy to go searching rn), but I seem to recall someone here mentioning that a retired Israeli military official said in his memoirs (huge grain of salt, obviously) that in the event of perceived “betrayal” of Israel, the nukes might be pointed at the West.

      in the scenario where you blow up all the missile silos for the nukes, how are they going to nuke anyone? though I think assuming the US could get every last silo and warhead before the israelis realize what is happening is a bit optimistic
