Israeli website DEBKA reports tonight on a strategic military escalation in the Middle East:
Pakistan will deploy nuclear missiles and warheads at Saudi bases under military-nuclear accord signed in Islamabad by Crown prince Abdullah. Pakistani security umbrella will replace US troop presence withdrawn from kingdom this summer. Deal flatly defies Bush warning to Abdullah this year not to deploy nuclear weapons on Saudi soil.
Drudge is reporting a similar headline and says it will be front page news in Wednesday's Washington Times. This is potentially very destabilizing.
