Does Israel have nuclear weapons?

Wikipedia page on The Apollo Affair:

From 1965 to 1980, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) investigated Zalman Shapiro, the company's president, over the loss of 206 pounds (93 kg) of highly enriched uranium. The Atomic Energy Commission, the Central Intelligence Agency, other government agencies, and inquiring reporters conducted similar investigations, and no charges were ever filed. A General Accounting Office study of the investigations declassified in May 2010 stated "We believe a timely, concerted effort on the part of these three agencies would have greatly aided and possibly solved the NUMEC diversion questions, if they desired to do so."[1]

In February 1976 the CIA briefed senior staff at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) about the matter, stating that the CIA believed the missing highly enriched uranium went to Israel. The NRC informed the White House, leading to President-elect Carter being briefed about the investigation. Carter asked for an assessment by his National Security Advisor, whose staff concluded "The CIA case is persuasive, though not conclusive."[2][3]

“Does Israel have nuclear weapons?”

BINGO. Yet, the Israel first crowd on this board would send their children to die in a war for Israel before they gave a can of soup to the poor. Sad.

Sure! What is your point. Friendly peaceful nations have a right to secure peace and restrain evil warlike nations. If the United States did not have Nuclear Weapons, Japan might still be terrorizing Asia...

”Does Israel have nuclear weapons?”

Yes (though not officially acknowledged). Are you trying to make some moral equivalency comparison between them and Iran, because that would be very foolish.

Should the police and the criminals be equally armed?

Probably.

Israel isn't run by a genocidal maniac. Israel isn't motivated by an ideology which demands the whole world bow down before it. There is no moral equivalence between Israel and Iran.
