Just in case the former president has never had the thought occur to him--or even if he has, yet has somehow failed to comprehend its implications--it really does matter who is in possession of nuclear weapons. The thought of Israel's having 150 or so nukes--which may be entirely accurate; I confess that I am unable to put a precise number upon it--does not leave me awake at night, with sweaty palms, in the morbid fear that a couple of nukes, with the Star of David emblazoned upon them, may be making their way at any moment toward Washington and New York.
If this semi-senile ex-president (and I feel that I am giving him the benefit of the doubt with the modifier "semi") really cannot differentiate between Israel's having nuclear weapons and Iran's (or even North Korea's) having nuclear weapons, one can only suppose that his thought process is steeped in a squishy moral relativism that ultimately results in a doctrine of moral equivalence. And it is probably at this point that the old axiom about the fireman and the arsonist should come into play.
He knows the difference but hates Israel so much he wishes the numbers were reversed. Or that someone had already taken out Israel.
He was and is a communist. The first deep plant Soviet sympathizer who got to the Presidency.
