I think everyone on earth knows the only possible Middle East non-aggression pact is a pact to get together and wipe out Israel.
No, a ME non-aggression pact is perfectly viable without being a ‘let’s gang up on Israel’ pact. Well, not directly anyways; and actually far worse for Israel.
What a ME non-aggression pact really means is the closure of US military bases in all nations that sign on as both a show of sincerity and only realistic way to guarantee compliance.
That in turn is a death blow to the petrodollar, because if the ME no longer needs US military bases to protect them, what exactly are they getting in return for effectively giving America this stupendously large protection money?
The existential threat to Israel will come from the natural sequence of consequences that follows. Because without US protection, the ME oil states will need to either invest properly in their own militaries for defence, and/or seek new outside security guarantors and/or form collective defensive pacts akin to NATO, only with local countries instead of America and actual NATO.
If the likes of Saudi Arabia and Iran invested say 5% of their GDP on Chinese arms and Pakistani ‘instructors’ to use them, pretty soon they will both have militaries that can body Israel solo.
Worse for America and Israel, without regional U.S. military bases and with Iran and Saudi Arabia in a partnership, you might actually see peace in the ME and an end to the centuries long Muslim civil war and Arab-Muslim conflicts. With peace in the ME and regional nations and peoples no longer bogged down killing each other, Israel’s scope and ability to create chaos and profit from it will be ended. And if they continue their expansionist nazi imperialism, they will get wiped out by the United front of everyone in the neighbourhood.
