Why does Israel need 400+ nukes? If it were a mere deterrent against neighbouring Arab states, 20-30 would be more than sufficient to threaten the destruction of most major population centers, if push comes to shove. No, it doesn't make sense. It is clearly an arsenal aimed at blackmailing and keeping under control a much wider area. This area, in my opinion, is Europe and especially Germany. The purpose of this arsenal is to prevent any attempt of nationalistic reaweakening (and the creation of an NS government) in a major European state that would jeopardize Jewish preeminence. Since I happen to believe that a global great depression that will reaweaken slumbering populations all over the West is comming our way, let me consider the options of neutralizing this veritable Damocles' sword. The NATO nuclear umbrella would be worthless in the case of a nuclear standoff between a future NS government in Europe and Israel because the only western countries posessing nuclear weapons are either already judeocracies (US) or are getting there fast (UK, France), and in case UK and France show some hesitation, the US would be used to keep them on their toes. This leaves us with Russia as the only possible and credible defender of Europe. No wonder that the intelligence photographs provided by Jonathan Pollard to his kinsmen allowed Israel to aim its Jericho nuclear tipped missiles at the Russian missile fields (Washington Times, 11-16-1998). Whether the Russians would risk their own cities to save other European countries is anybody's guess. Conclusion - any country that wants to preserve its own sovereignty should start building nukes fast and hope for the best.

IAEA conference to discuss Israeli nukes for first time
SPECIAL TO WORLD TRIBUNE.COM Thursday, August 28, 2003 LONDON ââ¬â The International Atomic Energy Agency has decided to discuss Israeli nuclear capabilities in its next major conference.
Diplomatic sources said the IAEA has placed on the agenda of its General Conference and Regular Session the subject of "Israeli Nuclear Capabilities and Threats." The subject will be discussed at the conference in Vienna in September.
The sources said this is the first time in decades that the IAEA has placed Israel's nuclear programs on the agenda of its general conference.
The conference has been planned from Sept. 15 to Sept. 19, Middle East Newsline reported. They said the subject was placed at the behest of Arab and Islamic states. The proposal to discuss Israel's nuclear programs came from the Arab League, the diplomats said. Oman was said to have submitted the request.
The IAEA has reserved the conference to also discuss Iran's nuclear program and U.S. charges that Teheran is developing nuclear weapons. In response, Iran and Arab states have criticized the agency for failing to address Israel's purported nuclear arsenal.
In a recent meeting, the Arab League has asserted that Israel has stockpiled up to 300 nuclear warheads. The league said Israel now has the capability of producing hydrogen bombs.
The sources said the Arab League plans to distribute a study on Israel's nuclear programs to participants at the IAEA conference. The league will also demand that Israel sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
