Oh really, and I just quoted BBC that I'm the king of the world! Well, I couldn't check it out as it's not there and the fact you can't post a link is telling. Sure is breezy in here....

Summary
- US and Israel launch an attack on Iran, as President Donald Trump confirms "major combat operations" are under way and calls for a regime change
- The Israel Defense Forces says retaliatory strikes have been launched by Iran - explosions have been heard in the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Kuwait
- Trump has urged Iranians to "take over" the Iranian government, saying "it will be yours to take. This will be probably your only chance for generations"
- Washington has been ramping up the pressure on Tehran to agree to a new deal on its nuclear programme. Trump said on Friday he was "not happy" with Iran's negotiating position during nuclear talks - our Middle East correspondent explains how we got here
- Iran's foreign ministry says it was aware of "intentions" for an attack but continued with nuclear negotiations anyway
- The UK government says that it does not want to see "a wider regional conflict" in the Middle East - it is understood the UK was not involved in the attack

On topic tho.
This is a bad move for Trump, considering there is a major event in the US in 6 months (FIFA World Cup), this strike won't do much, but will attract attacks onthe US during events like this. Not sure if Iran was thinking about it before now, orif they can actually pull it off, but they are probably going to look at this now.
This isn't going to stir a hard threat on the US, but a soft target? That's another story

Yes and no, all of the media hype around calling this a Muslim NATO was exactly to misdirect and Sabotage what the pact is.

Also just to add, you only invoke the agreement when you think you need it, Pakistan does not need it with Afghanistan and the Saudis have USA

This conflict could still get a whole lot worse
Frank GardnerBBC Security correspondent
From up and down the Gulf reports are coming in of explosions, sirens, air defences going into action and plumes of smoke.
Iran always said it would retaliate against US bases in the region and it has, wasting little time before sending a volley of missiles at America’s Gulf Arab allies.
"It’s really scary", a British expat resident in Bahrain tells me as he watches a Patriot missile battery intercepting an incoming missile right overhead.
This is not the first time that the Gulf states, which include the UAE’s hugely popular destination of Dubai, have experienced war.
There was the Iran-Iraq war in 1980-88, Desert Storm in 1991, the Iraq invasion in 2003 and last year Iran briefly targeted the US airbase in Qatar.
But this is different. It’s bigger and more dangerous than anything previously.
Which is why the leaders of Oman, Qatar and Saudi Arabia earlier urged the Trump administration not at attack their big neighbour across the water.
This conflict could still get a whole lot worse.

This ain't some shocking development. It was an eventuality as clear as the rising Sun.

The thing about pacts is you cannot be selective on when you choose to implement them,. If Pak called for Saudi help and vice versa it should be given, under no conditions
