Saudi Arabia has conducted tests to stand down its air defences to enable Israeli jets to make a bombing raid on Iran’s nuclear facilities, The Times can reveal.

In the week that the UN Security Council imposed a new round of sanctions on Tehran, defence sources in the Gulf say that Riyadh has agreed to allow Israel to use a narrow corridor of its airspace in the north of the country to shorten the distance for a bombing run on Iran.

To ensure the Israeli bombers pass unmolested, Riyadh has carried out tests to make certain its own jets are not scrambled and missile defence systems not activated. Once the Israelis are through, the kingdom’s air defences will return to full alert.

Shia vs Sunni and the two countries are rivals so Saudi Arabia doesn't want a nuclearized Iran hence "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" even if they still hate Israel.
fuck all those elitists brb watching streams of elite players.

Probably because Iran is a huge threat to the stability of their government... monarchy vs revolution. And whole region even. Nukes in the hands of Iran probably make them just as nervous as Israel.

If America has nukes, every single country in the world deserves nukes too.

You really think countries like Iran and North Korea are going to be more responsible with nukes than America?

Game balance.

As a side note, I just find it strange that this is public news. It's so weird to announce "I'm going to bomb you now."

wait wait wait, what the FU$%?

"If America has nukes, EVERYONE GETS NUKES"?????

You are either a teenager that doesn't understand world politics, or else a , god i can't say it without it getting deleted. What you are suggesting is the equivalent of giving a DOOMSDAY DEVICE to someone like a highschool bully. WHILE HE IS STILL IN HIGHSCHOOL!

You are either an Iranian praying for America's downfall or else completely noob and retarded at world relations.

We WORKED to get where we are in this world. We Americans, through fu$%ing sweat, blood, and death of WW2 saved the world from fascism, and discovered the most deadly weapon in the history of EVERYTHING on the way. Thats like winning a starcraft game, and then saying, bah, im too greedy, i should give the guy all my minerals and 3 hours to build while i go look at porn and lose. Just handing that treasure over to third world countries and such would result in EVERYONE DYING.

Nigeria-"Hm, those neighbors we have, the Nigers, are stealing water from our well. NUKE THE FUCKERS!"
Niger- "Oh SHIT! RETALIATE!"
the REST OF AFRICA-"NUKES ARE FLYING! SHIT! EVERYONE RETALIATE!"

Thats just a TASTE of something that could happen.

No matter how good you are anyone deems you at computer games, world political relations takes more than "pro starcraft apm" to master and think about correctly.

America doesn't need to say it because it actually does it.

Okay, so just because America was the first country to make a nuclear weapon, that means no other country should get it? Cause that's what your implying.
