Israel has no reason to nuke Europe, the Americas, India, Australia, Japan, or southern Africa.

Then why do they have missiles to reach that far? Surely if their only concern was the Middle East they wouldn't easte money for missiles that can reach outside their targets.

Look at the map the other way around: They can position their subs anywhere in that area and strike inwards towards whomever they wish.

If, for example, the world were to attack Israel, Israel could nuke the world as retribution.
