A Nuclear Free Middle East Zone

If people want an overview of all the terrorist organisations and by whom they are supported financially and by whom they are "used", meaning they can act as "mercenaries" or "armies" or "militia's' of another country, please check out the following link.

Funny thing I noticed, about all of them had "Strength Unkonwn" on them. If you don't know ho strong they are how do you know they exist?

I don't know when the US gave Israel nuclear weapons. My guess is before 1974.

In a vacuum, it sounds great. But it also sounds a little like agreeing to terms before a prize fight.

Of course, this was proposed before real hostilities between the US and the Middle East were underway. Strategically, it sounds like a mask to get American nuc ...[text shortened]... his, but Israeli nuclear weapons are probably one of the only reasons Israel still exists today.

I don't HATE to say it, its a fact. If you disarm Israel, they wouldn't
last a week.

Just out of curiosity, why does an avowed atheist support these dudes?

????? Israel wouldn't last a week without nuclear weapons?? You don't seriously believe that, do you?

Did I say I did? No, they are not good and they should not exist, and what they are doing is not right. I am simply making fun of the American "intelligence" and saying that some of these may not be accurate.

Well, maybe two. You forget how many countries have vowed to
destroy Israel? Not to mention Hamas, the PLO and Syria.
That puts it at about 300 million to what, 5? Or do you think
all those destroy Israel statements are just bluff?

I think you live in a fantasy world. Israel is the strongest military power in the Middle East even without nuclear weapons; it took Israel all of six days to wipe up the floor with its Arab neighbors in 1967 (no nukes necessary). You need help with your delusions, sport; don't they have mental health clinics in your area?

So you think the Israeli's could withstand a co-ordinated attack by
Iran and Syria? Of course such an attack would not be very secret
so it wouldn't be much of a suprise considering Israels readiness.
I am thinking the Iranian statemenst are just blustering anyway.
I was thinking Israel would be in trouble if there were a total
arab-israeli war but egypt and Jordan have already signed peace
treaties so it would be only Syria and Iran Vs Israel so I guess
there would not be much of a problem for israel to defend.
Statement retracted.
