I say they ought to sign the NPT and subject themselves to the rules they care so much about enforcing on the Iranians.

After all, the HARDCORE orthodox Jews in Israel, who are multiplying faster even than the Palestinians, are just about as politico-religiously out there as the Ayatollahs, and will have waaaaaaaaay more seats in the Knesset in 20 or 30 years.

But Israel's special so they can do whatever they want to anyone and it's all in the name of freedom, right?

Maybe Israel should not have nuclear weapons but they already do so should or should not is irrelevant. Like all fanatics the Zionists believe they are implementing God's Will so they will do whatever they please. So will the Persians.

At least the Zionists and the Persians have something in common. They both are threatened by and hate Arabs.

Your sarcasm must be anti-semitic.

The US has the bomb, so does Russia and China. Why shouldn't Israel have the ability to defend itself, particularly with the possibility that Iran, the Islamic State and other natural enemies will be similarly armed? I wouldn't be surprised if they had other weapons in the works or maybe even already operational that make a run of the mill H-bomb look like pea shooter.

But they do have the bomb. It's a fait accompli. So here in the real world, we deal with reality.

Israel has the bomb. Like everything other country that has the bomb, it has never wanted to see anyone else get the bomb.

You know, since you're the only one in this thread whining (sarcastically, I might add) about anti-semitism, you're just beating a strawman. And rather pathetically so.

That might be true if I didn't called anti-Semitic for thinking the Israeli government is bastards like every 5 minutes.

They should take their nuclear bombs and dump them. Right on Iran's nuclear manufacturing and research facilities!

Has Israel ever threatened to destroy Iran? Has Israel ever bemoaned the existence of Iran?

If Iran had non-belligerent leadership, I wouldn't have a problem with them having nuclear weapons (any more than any other nation having them).

Spoiler
It has a policy of ambiguity in relation to its nuclear arsenal, neither confirming nor denying its existence. As a result, there is little public information or debate about it.


Besides, why should Israel not have Nukes ? I trust em enough not to worry about em nuking me
