It is a violation of the Egypt-Israel peace treaty and the status-quo in the area. So it is a radical idea.

Without Israel's consent, it is like Egypt thinks they are a sovereign nation or something.

Does anyone think that Israel asked Egypt for permission before they secretly built nuclear weapons in violation of many international treaties?

Egypt is a sovereign nation that signed a peace agreement with Israel. Egypt consented within the peace agreement that Sinai would a demilitarized region. So now Egypt is in violation of that agreement.

Folks don't want to hear that apparently as you've now pointed that out twice. I don't know how you can make it any simpler for them to understand.

How do you feel about Israel being allowed to possess nuclear weapons in violation of several treaties?

Why? Do you think the Jews want to invade Pennsylvania?

I could be wrong but I don't believe Israel ever signed the nuclear non proliferation treaty. Are they in violation of some other treaties?

This is not the topic of this thread and it is not clear whether or not Israel actually possesses nuclear weapons.
