I have been informed by a correspondent that the site that I used for the explanation of why the Trump administration continues to lie for Israel about its nuclear arsenal has a credibility problem of its own. One can spot it by reading the article carefully. The headline says, “Israel has 90 nukes – but our leaders won’t say so because U.S. would have to cut off aid.” The “90 nukes” wording is also in the subtitle and in the third paragraph. But in the second paragraph we see, “At least 90 of them.”
Indeed. It turns out that there is a Wikipedia page that examines the question of Israel’s nuclear weapons, and there we see in the second sentence, with a host of references, “Estimates of Israel’s stockpile range between 90 and 400 nuclear warheads.“
So, the 90 number is apparently a bare minimum estimate. My correspondent, who has followed the matter quite closely, thinks the real number of nuclear weapons might be closer to 1000. And we are not just hair splitting over numbers. He is not alone in believing that the reason Israel has so many is that they want to have enough to make the Samson Option credible.
There’s a Wikipedia page on that subject, but I think people can get a better handle on it by going to the web page with the title, “Can Israel’s Doomsday Weapon Destroy Human Civilization?”
It concludes this way:
Take my opinion for what it’s worth. But I would like everyone to ask themselves if we should be allies, or even tolerate the existence of a state with a “Samson Option” of rage quitting and killing us all.
