Let's begin with the creation of a nuclear armed Iran about 20 years from now with about 200+ nuclear weapons. Russia now has a very strong alliance with Iran who is now one of the major powers in the Middle East besides Israel. Now here is the scenario:
Let's say the United States is still in Iraq and Afghanistan at the time. Russia uses the Electromagnetic pulse effect of nuclear weapons to completely fry all of Israel's nuclear weapons. This would involve detonating the radioactive effect over the nuclear weapons at a specific height. There would be no explosions but all of Israel's nuclear weapons would be fried. Then, Iran comes in and invades Israel along with Lebanon (who Hezbollah now has a slight majority in the government), Syria and the Palestinians. Russia then publically threatens to intervene if the US attempts to help Israel.
How does the US react?
Sorry, when I said Hezbollah has a slight majority in government, I meant 20 years from now, not today
