Operation Sphinx

At a time when virtually the entire international community has come to a consensus against Pakistan 'crossing the line' and becoming a nuclear state, an attack on Pakistan's nuclear facility cannot be entirely ruled out. After all the world has witnessed the June 7, 1981 Israeli attack and destruction of the Iraqi nuclear complex Temuze 70 (Osirak), just outside Baghdad when US made Israeli fighter bomber carried out Operation Sphinx.
