Israel Dismisses Obama Call to Join NPT
Minister: Obama Fine With Israel's 'Nuclear Ambiguity'
by Jason Ditz, April 14, 2010

As with previous discussions of the possibility, Israeli officials today reacted negatively to yesterday's comment by President Obama in support of seeing Israel join the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

"There is no room to pressure Israel to join," insisted Defense Minister Ehud Barak, who added that it was unreasonable to ask Israel to join so long as Iran, a signatory to the NPT remains a "threat."

But exactly how serious Obama's comments even were is unclear. The president went out of his way to avoid the issue during the summit, and only mentioned that position when pressed. Moreover the US vigorously opposed an IAEA measure urging Israel to join the NPT late last year.

In fact according to Israel's Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon, the Obama Administration has never asked them to change their policy of "nuclear ambiguity," whereby Israel refuses to admit to its massive nuclear arsenal and refuses to join any group which would subject them to any sort of oversight.

After the Revolution of 1905, the Czar had prudently prepared for further outbreaks by transferring some $400 million in cash to the New York banks, Chase, National City, Guaranty Trust, J.P.Morgan Co., and Hanover Trust. In 1914, these same banks bought the controlling number of shares in the newly organized Federal Reserve Bank of New York, paying for the stock with the Czar\'s sequestered funds. In November 1917,  Red Guards drove a truck to the Imperial Bank and removed the Romanoff gold and jewels. The gold was later shipped directly to Kuhn, Loeb Co. in New York.-- Curse of Canaan

Quote from: "CrackSmokeRepublican"In fact according to Israel's Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon, the Obama Administration has never asked them to change their policy of "nuclear ambiguity," whereby Israel refuses to admit to its massive nuclear arsenal and refuses to join any group which would subject them to any sort of oversight.

So Israel gets to have 200 - 400 nuclear weapons (that they are not supposed to have) AND not no oversight.
Replace the word 'Israel' with 'Iran'. Imagine the international outrage and anger.
Seems like Israel can do whatever they want, be it mass deportations of Palestinians, bulldozing olive orchards (and people) and have an illegal
cache of nuclear weapons.

Let's not forget about the Chemical and biological weapons they also have stashed in Negev Desert.
Aren't those 'weapons of mass destruction?'  :o  :shock:  :roll:
