Saudi Arabia will certainly nuke up, and quickly. Furthermore, they will want, and can afford, the best, which indicates Israeli design and construction.

However, there is the fissionables, fusionables and rare earths supply to be considered. That would indicate Russia and China.

Israel has little problem with Russia and China, while Russia and China both have considerable problems with Saudi Arabia.

Can a three way deal be made with some startlingly good diplomacy to arm up all four with the most modern nukes on the planet? Can relations be smoothed and trusted between Israel - Saudi Arabia - Russia/China? Caliphate builders want to know.

In general, why would Russia and China have problems doing business with Saudi Arabia? Is it a case of Three Meglomaniacs meet in a bar, and say “This town (the developed world) aint big enough for all three of us”?
