Mossad assassination plot nearly triggered Pakistan-Israel crisis

Pakistani military intelligence allegedly intercepted a Mossad plan to kill Army Chief Asim Munir during peace talks in Switzerland. They sent back a message so clear it needed no translation. "If you touch our delegation, we're going to wipe you off the map, period." The reason this never hit headlines? Because it worked. Israel backed off. This is the kind of nuclear-armed state calling another's bluff and winning so decisively that the entire incident disappears from public view. That's actual leverage operating in the shadows while everyone talks about diplomatic "negotiations." The quoted tweet mentions Saudi Arabia privately guaranteeing Iran's $12 billion owed funds even if Trump blocks it, with the actual total being $24 billion in two phases. But the core story here is the Pakistan piece, not the Iran side conversation.

🇸🇦🇮🇷 Saudis privately guaranteed Iran gets every dollar owed, even if Trump says no. Geopolitical Analyst Pepe Escobar broke the details, confirmed by two separate sources. "Saudi Arabia personally backstops the $12 billion owed to Iran. If Trump says no, this is beyond huge." The grand total isn't 12 billion. It's 24, paid out in two phases, and Riyadh just told Tehran they're covered. @RealPepeEscobar
