[ETERNAL WARMING]

Go Israel Go! Those Arab thugs will think twice before trying to pull another '67.

[Sen Jack S. Fogbound]

I recall hearing a while back that they had something like 40 plus. They were stored underground in an air force base. They would hold exercises to time the time it would take to bring them up from underground and mount them on the aircrafts. Pretty fast! LOL

82? Maybe they stole them from Saddam! LOL

[Waco]

Me oh my, they seem to be a little short. Reckon they can borrow some of ours?

[Alberta's Child]

They allow their citizens to be massacred on a daily basis while they have this arsenal.

Israel's problem is that a nuclear arsenal is utterly useless when you are dealing with an enemy that lives next door.

[finnman69]

a bunch are definitely neutron bomb type weapons....plus some crowd pleasers for tehran, damascus, etc.

[garjog]

This article shows that nuclear proliferation is a serious problem that we will face for the next 20 years.

Considering that the Islamo-wackjobs like to blow themselves up, it seems dangerously likely that one of these anti-Semite countries will eventually nuke Jerusalem to “save it from the Jews”, knowing that some Arab cites would be destroyed in response. Suicide bombers prove that they just don’t care about killing the innocent, even their own people.

Add to the middle east problem all of the other loose cannon nations building up massive stocks of WMDs and the scenario is troublesome. Order your supply of anti radiation pills today.

SECRET DEFENSE REPORT SHOWS ISRAEL OWNS 82 NUKE WEAPONS

How many Arab countries are there? Hmmm...

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

'Bout time they used a few.

[Bobby777]

I hope they have a decent delivery system.

Jericho II and possibly Jericho I MRBM's ... possibly already able to deliver from their (fairly) new German Dolphin subs, plus gravity nukes, formerly dropped by F-4's and now dropped by F-16's I believe ... plus, apparently, some sort of artillery capability ... given their work with the South Africans ... they were firing from ships but I don't know if they also have a surface naval deployment of such weapons ...

one thing's for sure ... they won't go down without a fight ... that's for certain ...

[yonif]

Why is this public? I wonder if Israel was consulted before this was unclassified.

[wardaddy]

Hear, Hear!!!

[yonif]

These nukes will only be used when it is all lost, when Israel executes the Samson Option, where it takes its enemies down with her.

[Bobby777]

it's called advertising ... pretending they don't want it known ... it's a secret they want published ... gives a few people a moment of pause ...

after Mordecai Vanunu, the rest of the world knew what the Americans, British and Russians knew for a long, long time ...

[King Prout]

good.

[King Prout]

oh, they only NEED a few...
Mecca, Medina, Riyadh, Qum, Damascus, Cairo...
not all that many really NEEDED, should push come to FRAGGABOOM.

[King Prout]

because they are a very nice and tolerant, peaceloving folk.

[King Prout]

that's my idea - i had it and published it during Gulf War One, right up to naming them Strategic Porcine Anti-Muslim rounds, having a lard slick cover the gulf, and renaming the Straits of Hormuz... the Straits of Hormel.
I wish folks would give me the credit I am due for my overweening brilliance.

[backhoe]

The Samson Option-- what is known about Israel's Nuclear Weapons?

[Atlantic Friend]

Historically speaking, they had already ceased to be a threat BEFORE the bombs, remember ? They had lost their navy, naval aviation and air force. Their defensive positions in the Pacific Islands had either been stormed or turned. In fact, the bombs were a cost-effective alternative to invasion so the WAR, not the Japanese threat, could be brought to an end...

[Poohbah]

Most estimates put them at 200 or so. Maybe this is the number assembled and ready to use.
