Personally, the way I see it, its only a matter of time before full blown hostilities break out between Iran and Pakistan.
Which is a serious threat to the region when you consider that one is nuclear armed. With a stated policy of battlefield nukes.
In such a scenario, a weaker country (than India for instance with an promised overpowering second strike capability) is at serious risk in case of irresponsible battalion commander level escalation from the opposite side should things go south.
