Media is reporting on this all of a sudden and I'm a bit out of the loop. What's happening?

Normally I would agree and chalk it up to that, but these are two nuclear armed powers with over a billion lives at stake, yet still, not a peep of interest. The "threat" of Iran possessing a nuclear weapon is constantly fearmongered in the media, yet a conflict where over 300 warheads could be involved seems to go uncovered, the inconsistency is so strange.

You'd think it'd be important to them but nope. That's why I can only think of the above conclusion. Like, India has an actual fascist government and some proto apartheids system but you never heard anything about it. If China actually did half the stuff India did you'd never heard the end of it.

Iran poses a threat to the western hegemony and needs to be treated badly. Pakistan and India apparently do not pose such a threat so let them nuke eachother I guess?
