For Pakis you just need to make sure their leadership - General Sahibs, Feudal Lords, and their families are in the line of fire. This is a problem unrelated to nuclear weapons. To bring the Paki ashrafiya and their familes to justice, you would need to send out Mossad-style hit teams to various lo...

On the Gaza side, clearly the majority of funding is from Qatar, with little bits and pieces from Iran, Turkey and China. On the Israeli side, probably mostly from the U.S.
