In a development that has largely been missed by mainstream media, the Pentagon last month quietly declassified a Department of Defense top-secret document detailing Israel's nuclear capabilities, a highly covert topic that Israel has never formally announced to avoid a regional nuclear arms race, and which the US until now has respected by remaining silent.
But in the declassified document from 1987, which can be viewed here, the US reportedly breached the silent agreement to keep quiet on Israel's nuclear powers for the first time ever, detailing the nuclear program in great depth.
The timing of the revelation is highly suspect, as it came as tensions spiraled out of control between Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and US President Barack Obama ahead of Netanyahu's March 3 address in Congress, in which he warned against the dangers of Iran's nuclear program and how the deal being formed on that program leaves the Islamic regime with nuclear breakout capabilities.
Another highly suspicious aspect of the document is that while the Pentagon saw fit to declassify sections on Israel's sensitive nuclear program, it kept sections on Italy, France, West Germany and other NATO countries classified, with those sections blocked out in the document.
The 386-page report entitled "Critical Technological Assessment in Israel and NATO Nations" gives a detailed description of how Israel advanced its military technology and developed its nuclear infrastructure and research in the 1970s and 1980s.
Israel is "developing the kind of codes which will enable them to make hydrogen bombs. That is, codes which detail fission and fusion processes on a microscopic and macroscopic level," reveals the report, stating that in

Seems much of their technology is ahead of ours. Aircraft safety, special ops, lie detector glasses, battle women, border control...

Well, there's propaganda. But then there's the truth.
DOD Report Details Israel's Quest for Hydrogen Bomb By JANET MCMAHON
Courthouse News Service February 12, 2015
[Excerpt:]
The release comes after Grant Smith, director of the Washington, D.C.-based Institute for Research: Middle Eastern Policy filed filed a FOIA request last year and followed with a lawsuit in September seeking to compel release of the report.
The government fought to delay release of the 386-page report in hearings before Judge Tanya Chutkan in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, who expressed skepticism with the government's reasons for refusing to provide a single unclassified document.
[Grant Smith is a Libertarian who opposes "neo-cons." Antiwar.com has published his propaganda, as it has done for Pat Buchanan.]

Both political sides here have been trying to bind Israel under the Non-Proliferation Treaty and force Israel to get rid of nuclear weapons, if such weapons exist, for at least a decade. That's what this is about.
There are big money issues in the Middle East and elsewhere (trade). There's also oil. We've been lied to about oil and the economy in many ways. There have been a struggle for resources and worries about population numbers for a long time. Many global investors only care about resources that each of them can own by any means.
Constituents in the shadows behind politicians of both political parties disagree with most of the American population by far. It's about their money and their desire to collectively develop micro-control the world.

Arutz Sheva has been called a left-leaning news outlet by many faithful Jewish people.
The truth is that most publication companies in the U.S.A., the U.K. and all over the world work for and obey those who sponsor publications.

Yes, he is, and I’m betting that he will live to regret this act of war against Israel. On the other hand, I would not bet on a long life for the Kenyan, if this seems to be as damaging as it sounds like it might be.

When I was a student at the Air War College back in 1972, it was customary to have visiting lecturers speak to the assembled students: general officers, high-ranking DoD civilians, etc. One day the speaker was the Israeli ambassador. After his talk, during the question period, one of the wiseacres in the class asked the Ambassador to describe Israel's nuclear weapons release procedures. The Ambassador was good at his job. He wasn't going to tell us what we'd know was a lie, because he knew he might need our good will some day, but he expertly tapdanced around the question. I still find it a source of amusement.

(linked from leftist/skinhead website antiwar.com)Anti-war.com (spit!) is a "right wing" palaeoconservative and palaeolibertarian site. It carries articles by anti-Israel leftists because it the people who run it hate Israel so much. They're sick.

Thank you for asking that. I'm sorry. Please accept this apology. I confused Arutz Sheva with Haaretz.

I just hope that when the Almighty removes our blight, He focuses on a single man and his administration, rather than the entire nation. That is my prayer, too. However, the problem is that nations get the leaders they deserve, especially in our current state of democratically controlled popularity contests and spineless, gutless "opposition" representatives.
We have banned God from our schools and public places. We have been "legally" murdering a million+ babies a year. We have not only legalized sodomy, we have mandated its promotion and banned opposition to it. In so many ways, we have tried, collectively, to spit in God's face. We have done this for many years.
Though the mills of God grind slowly;
Yet they grind exceeding small;
Though with patience He stands waiting,
With exactness grinds He all."

Repentance is our only viable course of action.

Obama is a petulant, adolescent bastard. It is going to take years to rebuild trust with our allies; and that only will occur with non-Rat presidents. Of course, this is highly unlikely given a combination of most people’s short-term memories and the indoctrination that occurs in government schools in place of critical thinking.

Obama and those he has appointed are the worst sort of ant-American, anti-constitution, individuals imaginable. They themselves consort with the enemy (as is obvious from the Bergdahl deal, the deal they are currently negotiating with the Iranians, Benghazi, etc., etc. ad nausium).
In the Bergdahl travesty we see it on display in full color...just like here.
“He served with honor and distinction.” Susan Rice.
Problem is...Susan Rice probably meant exactly that, even given that he deserted and collaborated.
This was known when they made the deal for the Taliban commanding generals.
To these a**hats, that is what they think.
