The newly declassified JFK file revealed that former CIA counterintelligence chief James Angleton testified under oath in an executive session before the Church Committee in 1975 about deep intelligence ties between the United States and Israel.
The testimony, given in a top-secret executive session, was part of the Senate Select Committee’s broader investigation into intelligence operations.
Though much of the session was focused on Cold War espionage and Soviet defections, one line of questioning zeroed in on allegations that U.S. intelligence may have assisted Israel’s covert nuclear program.
Angleton, who served from the agency’s founding until late 1974, confirmed a formal, albeit unwritten, intelligence-sharing agreement between the CIA and Israeli operatives beginning in 1951, one reportedly brokered between Angleton and Reuven Shiloah, Israel’s first Mossad director, noting that the relationship operated on a fiduciary basis and avoided documentation.

America's publicly stated official policy was "nuclear non-proliferation." No exceptions.
Was Kennedy anti-semitic?
Israel should have the means to defend itself from the Islamic neighbors that surround it. I’m assuming that the Israelis were worried that it’s neighbors who had dealings with the Soviet Union would ask the Soviets for assistance, if not being an outright supplier, of a nuclear weapon for the purpose of “eradicating the Zionist scum”.
Just a thought.
JFK was against nuclear proliferation for any nation.
He repeated this over and over—was super clear about it.
No need to overthink it.
As I recall one book said that it was noticed under the Eisenhower administration and they just chose to ignore it (when Dimona construction was starting in the 1950s).
It also noted that JFK was not happy about it when he found out. It’s been over 30 years since I read that.
It’s been a long time since I read that book but that’s what I seem to recall.
Kennedy wasn’t anti-semitic, and it isn’t anti-semitic to not want nuclear weapons to proliferate, even to friends.
The anti-semitism lurking here in the “just asking questions” crowd’s playing with the idea that that jews were pulling strings in Kennedy’s assassination because he was going to interfere with their nuclear ambitions.

USAid website offline as Trump puts
foreign aid agency under state Dept
Criminy, things in the Middle East things could get dicey. This region hasn’t been especially kind to the US or its presidents. The Washington foreign policy establishment has an ingrained belief in its own brilliance and a willingness to succumb to hubris about the extent of its power and influence. The Middle East has a tried and true formula to get foreign aid tax dollars.....uttering the word “peace” at regular intervals.
“Peace” in the Middle East has been a pipe dream for about a thousand years........there’s a
huge price tag on “peace,” with the US taxpayer gamely trying to meet the latest “peace price.”
Netanyahu to Trump: “Can you top this?”
<><>During the 2024 election year, Biden blanketed Israel w/ $17.9 billion peace-keeping tax dollars in that one year alone, saying, “Nobody has done more for Israeli peace than I have.”
Since 1973, Israel has received more than $120 billion US tax dollars in
peace-filled MILITARY assistance alone, including “three special aid” peace packages.
<><>billions for signing the Israel-Egypt peace treaty
<><>billions for Israel’s peaceful withdrawal from the Sinai.
<><>billions for peaceful redeployment of Israeli forces
<><>$5 billion tax dollars “rebuilding Israeli air bases” in the Negev.
<><>the Negev is where Israel builds its peaceful nuclear weapons
Besides peace-making weaponry, Israel also receives peace-keeping economic and humanitarian foreign aid, which supports broad peaceful economic development and socio-political stability and can include peaceable non-military support related to the country’s pressing peace needs.
Given the known train of Jewish nuclear scientists to Israel from a number of countries in the early to mid-’50s, and given known French government nuke cooperation with Israel since ‘56, halting Israeli nukes in the early ‘60s was just a fantasy.

:jews were pulling strings”
That is not what has been claimed around here.
What has been claimed is that Israel was one of several parties (LBJ, the Mob, the CIA and ex CIA players, Hoover, others) that had major issues with JFK and could have participated in a joint effort to get rid of him.
Nobody was “pulling strings” but they may have been partners with shared interests working together.
Not exactly clear on the “when,” but I remember learning about how while, on one hand, the US was against nuclear proliferation, but on the other hand we wanted Israel to be able to protect itself.
At the time it was compared to “Lend/Lease” before WWII. We didn’t want to be directly involved, but we wanted to help the UK. Similarly, we weren’t going to launch OUR nukes in defense of Israel, but if they just happen to have a secret nuke program and can defend themselves, that works.
We’ll just leave these plans for a nuclear weapon laying right here...
He didn’t stop China.
Oh Goodie. I wondered when you would post another of “the Joos did it” thread.
Anti-Semite Much?
Jewish women should prove their anti-racism by breeding with only black men, imagine every new child in Israel being nothing but beautiful black babies, and only an evil racist would disagree with what i just said.
Speaking of nukes, I keep reading about Israel possessing nuclear weapons.
What I haven’t read, is ANY TESTS the Israelis have made.
This is all speculation.
Btw the entire Wikipedia entry is worth a read—has a lot of discussion about other likely Israeli nuclear tests.
I remember back in the late 1970s or early ‘80s when a huge storm was off the coast of South Africa. There was spotted a massive lightning flash.
The US accused Israel and South Africa(still under White Control) of colluding together to test a nuclear weapon in that storm.
It was finally agreed the flash was actually was a massive lighting bolt.
Israel already had that nuclear knowledge when JFK was president.
This report is a very careless attempt at rewriting history
Israel has nuclear weapons. Israel has never tested a nuclear weapon. How does Israel know they work? They are our designs and our weapons work.
Yeah, that’s literally the same thing.
