Israel's Nuclear Blackmail

Settle down kids, I have a dark tale to tell. Of vile characters, double dealings and cowardice.

While the United States ironically uses Wikileaks to advance its hostilities against Iran by trumping the statements of its Arab clients to claim that there is a consensus opposed to Iran's alleged nuclear weapons program, let us remember which is the real rogue nation and nuclear threat to the region.

There is no consensus on bombing Iran, Zionist propaganda notwithstanding. The United States, Israel and a handful of Arab tyrants bowing to American empire do not equal a regional consensus. The Arab people overwhelmingly oppose military action against Iran, the Turkish people and their democratically elected government (something corrupt Arab regimes cannot never say) oppose a war and so do, of course, the Iranian people oppose an attack against their nation. So you have a imperial transplant, the Jewish state of less than 6million Jews, and 22 Arab dictators on one side and then you have 350million Arabs, 70 million Turks and 70million Iranians on the other side. As Tony Soprano may say: there's your fucking consensus!

Or as the Angry Arab put it: Just think this way: if the Arab public (Sunnis and Shi`ites lest you invoke the fashionable interjection) were asked about whether bombing Iran is preferable to bombing Israel, what would their answer be? I mean, do you need an expert here?

That's your other consensus. Not once in the Wikileaks memos do Arab regimes who rant and rave about Iran dare to offend their American masters by bringing up Israel's existing arsenal and America's efforts to shield for Israel.

The Arab people are not concerned about an Iranian bomb let alone the potential of one, but they are opposed to Israel's stockpile of hundreds of weapons - especially since Israel has in the past implicitly threatened to bomb Arab nations and used that as black mail against the United States to procure more arms:

The Israelis asked for arms [during the 1073 Yom Kippur war], but Kissinger was reluctant to comply, believing that Israel was well armed already, that the war would be short, and therefore that a resupply would unnecessarily anger the Arabs. But Kissinger did not want to appear to desert Israel, which he thought might harden

its position, so he had arms sent secretly, a policy publicly ratified by Nixon on October 9. While the airlift of

equipment was still covert, U.S. planes flew directly to the Israeli troops in the occupied Sinai, a violation of Egypt's

territory.[151]

Kissinger had another reason to accede to Israel's demand for an airlift. Although no one believed that Israel's survival

was at risk, the surprisingly strong Arab showing panicked some Israelis. The Israeli ambassador to Washington

warned that if the request for the airlift was denied, "we will have to draw very serious conclusions from all this."

According to a historian sympathetic to Israel, "Kissinger. . . had long known that Israel possessed a very short nuclear

option which it held as a weapon of last resort. . . . Suddenly . . . the scenario of an Israel feeling on the verge of

destruction resorting in despair to nuclear weapons. . . assumed a grim actuality."

Journalist Jack Anderson reported in 1980 that a Pentagon

document confirmed that Israel discussed using nuclear weapons with the United States when it was within hours of

running out of conventional arms and the United States furnished the weapons to prevent that. Washinqton Post, March

10, 1980. The subject is also discussed in Robert E. Harkavy, The Spectre of a Middle East Holocaust: The Strategic and Diplomatic Implications of the Israeli Nuclear Weapons Program, Monograph Series in World Affairs, vol. 14, book 4 (University of Denver, 1977).

Nuclear blackmail. Pure and simple: Give us weapons or we'll use the nukes! A disgrace upon the nations, truly. And this is what Arabs care about not America's selective indignation and opportunistic enforcement of nuclear treaties and Israel's temerity to raise objection against Iran when this nation itself had threatened Arabs! The nerve to raise objection and to raise concern over its well-being when it is actively endangering the well-being of another people. But Zionism has always been a supremacist tribal ideology which only cares for Jews and disregards the rights of all Arabs as inferior and dispensable. Israel and its paradoxically obsequious patron believe that Arabs should be allowed to casually live under threat of nuclear attack, but such an offense is too much for the Israelis to bear. What racist bullshit!

The comeuppance will not be far from now for the Zionists!
