US Pressing Israel to Lose Its Nukes
Arutz Sheva ^ | 5/21/2015 | Nitsan Keidar

Assistant Secretary of State Thomas Countryman visited Israel, spoke to diplomats about making Middle East nuke-free.

Assistant US Secretary of State for International Security and Nonproliferation, Thomas Countryman, recently visited Israel and held talks with senior Foreign Ministry officials, about the possibility of making the Middle East nuclear-free.

Washington seeks to advance the idea after reaching agreement with Russia about the matter.

The State Department confirmed Countryman's visit and sources in the US Administration said that Israeli agreement to the idea would be a catalyst for bringing additional countries into discussions on the matter.

The Americans have been attempting to convene an international conference on the subject for some time, without success. Secretary of State John Kerry spoke about the idea with pessimism, and said it was “a very tough challenge.”

I heard one really good way of “losing” nukes is if they happen to fall out of a plane...

What better time for Israel to disarm than when Iran is ready to test their first few nukes? This is as good an idea as Obamacare.

No more need to worry about nukes in Iran. Nosiree. We fixed that baby. No need to worry about Saudis buying nukes to protect themselves from Iran, either. Done and done. Same with Kuwait, UAE, Abu Dhabi and whatever part of Iraq has all the money these days, either, DAESH-land uber alles, or semi-autonomous Kurd region, or what’s left of the central government. Nope. All taken care of. Only problem now is Israel. It’s always down to the Randoms./sarc

Arrogance isn’t even close but I get your drift. I could see Israel being willing to make a move AFTER the last moozie quits yelling death to Israel. In the between time the muzzies are still doing a decent job killing each other without nukes. Semper Fi

Genesis 12:3 will never cease...The US, and especially the black occupant muslim in the Whitehut, had better know that God doesn’t play when it comes to His people.

Soooo, it is okay for the skinny @$$ punk in Sodom on the Potomac to allow the most murdering, terrorist supporting, other than himself that is, regime have nukes, and he want ISRAEL to get rid of her’s?????? Ain’t, never, NEVER going to happen!!! Israel will keep her nukes. To get rid of them is a death sentence. Israel will defeat the Inter-ring nations in the Psalms 83 war, but the LORD Jesus Christ will defend Israel in the Ezekiel 38 and 39, Gog and Magog war. Israel needs the nukes to keep the muzzies away. The day she got rid of them, would be the day the entire middle eastern arab horde would come down on Israel. Tell the skinny @$$ punk to kiss your nukes Israel.

Should read,
“US Urges Israel to Loose Its Nukes”
That would be the reasonable request.

Israel understands the muzz perfelctly well, and knows that regardless of what they may profess publicly "We love the Jews?", the reality it that the muzz dirty book tells them it is A-OK to lie to infidels.

No way they ever give up their deterrent, if not the muzz, it could be someone else. Those poor bastards have been there, done that WRT someone trying to rub them out.

A nuclear-free Israel is in the national interest of Iran thus it becomes U.S. policy. It becomes more apparent each day that Obama’s Middle East policy is predicated by what benefits Tehran.

This doesn’t surprise me one bit. Especially the way I expect things to unfold.

I just hope no leftist like Lipni gains enough power to ever do so.

One pastor quotes that for half of America’s voting block.

At this point, I can’t say he’s incorrect.

(gulp)

I agree. I believe the US arsenal are indeed the most sophisticated, with our various delivery systems.

And like you, I am confident Israel’s will do what they were designed to do.
