Or you could read the links and find out for yourself.... A defense treaty does not say, 'sure! You get nuked and I'll start lobbing some at the country that nuked you.' It's a treaty for training, supplies, cooperation, etc. It's a threat that if you invade Pakistan, you'll have the Chinese to fight as well. It doesn't say anywhere that if Pakistan gets nuked, China will jump in. Only an idiot would agree to that. (Although, in the case of the US, because they are halfway across the world, it's unlikely the war would spread that far. When the war is fought within missile range, it's much different.)
