Sometimes, a picture is worth a thousand geopolitical words, because if, say, the USA, France, or Great Britain had sold Israel any of their ballistic missile submarines, there would have been a veritable whirlwind of international outcry. But when Germany does it, nary a peep is heard, for obvious historical reasons. But few seem to be asking the pertinent question here: as Israel ratchets up the tensions with Iran, which cannot nuke anybody, what is Germany doing with u-boats with a capability to launch nuclear cruise missiles? Technically, of course, the German u-boats are not nuclear submarine, and technically, of course, they are not boomers or ICBM launching u-boats. And cruise missiles are not, technically, strategic offensive weapons. And technically, Germany doesnt even have cruise missiles, even though it is a German firm that is involved in building Frances latest submarine-launched nuclear ICBM. And why is Germany, a signatory to the nuclear non-proliferation treaty, selling such deadly weapons to a regional power with its own dangerous political establishment?
Sorry for all the questions folks
just thinking out loud.
Oy!
Sure would be a shame if those Joooz were able to defend themselves!
Technically Israel will neither confirm nor deny they possess nuclear weapons....
Well, they aren’t “nuclear subs” ... they are subs that are armed with nuclear weapons.
And, it wasn’t Germany who armed them or made them armed. It was Israel who did the rest of the work (with the nuclear weapons) after Germany made the subs.
Good for Israel. Never back down.
Will we survive the Obama years?
Israel needs more Jews and more nuclear weapons.
The new political class folks on all sides have very much publicized their desires for Iran, Syria and other fascist/commie nations to build nukes for over a decade. That’s okay, because the many nations that can afford to better participate in that kind of fun are doing so more quickly.
Have fun. Enjoy the party.
Someone should tell Joseph Farrell that it’s a Masonic and Rotary Club plot against the Vatican and the mullahs.
