No credible nonproliferation policy begins by pretending not to see the bombs your ally already has.
The US isn’t interested in non-proliferation. The US is interested in keeping all non-Israel countries to heel, and non-proliferation just provides the right excuse.
We blew past nonproliferation like long ago, as soon as Russia was allowed to invade Ukraine after Ukraine GAVE UP THE NUKS THEY HAD it was clear to anyone with a fleas understanding of geopolitics is that the lesson of the 20th and 21st centuries is to get nukes as soon as possible and then never ever ever give them up. It’s the only thing to curb the bullying power of the larger and more powerful states
That the US gave them. So much for “non-proliferation”
This seems like a bad, revisionist take. France kick started Israel’s nuke program, and they tested their stuff with South Africa.
During the development of their program, I don’t think the US and Israel were even on good terms.
France kick started Israel’s nuke program, and they tested their stuff with South Africa.
These things can never be truly confirmed, but rumor has it that their original stockpile of uranium came from US labs.
Omg they have nukes??? ??
Have a look at the Vela incident.
They don’t just have nukes, they’re one of a select few countries that refuse to sign the nonproliferation act, and refuse any inspection into how many they have.
Probably since the 90s yeah
Since the 70s.
Something about france and south Africa and egypt and Turkey. Been a long long time since i went down that particular rabbit hole
It’s like 99% certain they purchased both the material and plans from France.
Actually in collaboration with apartheid South Africa during the sanctions against them and using technology that Israel stole from the US
Fucking French. If they aren’t laying down their weapons they’re selling them.
If they aren’t laying down their weapons they’re selling them.
Couldn’t be a more accurate definition.
Incorrect. Stop new countries from acquiring nuclear weapons and reduce excess stockpiles of nuclear bombs.
