You put nukes in subs to avoid getting them blown up esp. by a first strike. So whoever nukes Israel had best do so without a piece of real estate associated with it, because the sub nukes will persist. Even if the ground-based intel the subs might have relied on for targeting is smoking slag. The problem of real estate: Look what happened to the Afghans who gave ClintonBush a place to target. Yet another advantage to being a unlocalized organization. Or working out of an untouchable like Saudi arabia.
