The size of Israel's nuclear arsenal has been one of the worst-kept "secrets" in the world. If US officials are embarrassed or distressed by Carter's "revelation," it is only because they have allowed themselves to be a party to an official deceit. It makes it a little harder for them to justify their opposition to the Iranian nuclear program, but it won't make any significant difference in US support for Israel, nor will it be used as a basis to create (at long last) a rational policy toward other nations in the region.

Mordechai Vanunu spent 18 years in prison and remains under restrictions because of the weapons israel "doesn't have."
the united nations follows the official line as well. it's just that EVERY country knows the truth about both the bombs and the means of delivery.

Sorry but this is a lie (just another lie in your long list...)
Vanunu spent 18 years in prison because HE WAS A SPY. Other countries (including the US) EXECUTED people like him for spying during a war. Vanunu was lucky.

Finally I find somebody made a sensible comment.The truth is any Western country can have any amount of any weapon but Muslim countries should not have them and that is considered a threat to Israel but Israel can threaten, invade, occupy and destroy any country in the region with the support of the United States of America. So the question here is how the so called peace can be brought about in the region?

"Hey, Moonlight. Which is more unnerving for the world? Israel with nukes or Iran with nukes? "
Let's look at history. Which two nations have consistantly invaded other nations in the Middle East on a large scale, claimed territory that wasn't theirs and killed hundreds of thousands of Arabs with their actions.
That's right. The US and Israel.
Which nation less than a year ago drew up plans for a limited tactical nuclear strike on Iran?
Israel again.
Huh.
If Iran was going to invade Israel, they would do it in a conventional manner, thus making it much less likely that Israel would feel justified in striking out with their nuclear weapons. Or they would provide weaponry to Hamas in Palestine that was much more accurate and destructive than their current weaponry.

SURE they could provide the enemies of Israel with better weapons, O "I'm not a Muslim", but, maybe Iran is biding it's time FOR such an attack from it's henchmen, Hamas and Hezebola?

That attitude by anti-american zioncons like you is why we should initiate immediate oil, economic and investment sanctions against israel. We should then then replace the racist zionist state of israel with a UN protectorate for ALL of palestine that guarantees equal rights for christians, moslems and jews.

I'm not sure what you know about the geography of the Middle East but for Iran to attack Israel "in a conventional manner" would be pretty tricky considering that Iranian armies would have to cross Syria and, possibly, Jordan and Lebanon. I doubt that either one of these countries would be willing to become a battlefield between the Israelis and the Iranians.
> ...thus making it much less likely that Israel would feel justified in striking out with their nuclear weapons.
Harldy. Israel will have very few choices to respond to an Iranian attack. Please consider that Israel does not have strategic bombers, aircraft carries or millions of troops.

Go back a ways in your history. At the time of Muhammad Islam was a part of the Arabic Peninsula. Islam then burst out and had a convert or be killed for everyone except the people of the book and many of those were killed to gather booty. From North Africa to India. North to France being turned back at Tours. Northeast to Vienna being turned back there. Killing and sacking the people conquered was their tradition.
Over 60% of the Jews in Israel before 1948 were Middle Eastern Jews who were running away from the Muslim attacks on them. Just keeping the dhimmi's under control. Kill some, burn homes and synagogue's, take what they have, etc. Just being good little Muslims. Trying to force them to convert.

Are you implying that terrorist state Israel is TRUSTWORTHY? It is idiotic to trust any of these Near Eastern theocracies or petty dictatorships. Any of them will do anything they perceive to be in their best interest without even a passing thought for the rest of the world. Heck with all of them. No more money, no more arms, NO TROOPS EVER AGAIN. Buy oil if anyone can stabilize part of the region long enough to pump it and ship it. We clearly have no qualms about whom we buy from: we buy from the Saudis! Sheesh. Disengage and shun.

Tkyrchncs, you and Dionys are not only historically ignorant, but stupid as well. Israel never attacked or occupied anybody. In 1967, Israel was on the verge of being attacked by Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraq. They chose a pre-emptive strike in which they destroyed the opposition's air power. They were then attacked on three fronts. Israel took only the areas that had been used as launching points against them. They never entered any other area. The war was fought on the West Bank, Gaza, and the Sinai. These areas were taken by Israel as a buffer against future attacks. These areas were never part of Egypt, Syria or Jordan to begin with. The Sinai, the West Bank the Gaza Strip and the Golan heights were taken by Egypt, Jordan and Syria 19 years before in warfare. These areas were never their territory to begin with. They were all part of the Ottoman empire. So your statement that these lands were invaded and occupied are correct. Egypt, Jordan and Syria invaded and occupied them.

Hey, Edmar14. It's hard to argue with those who believe anyone who DOESN'T perform five times a day of butt in the air will have his or her skin burned off and replaced, daily, throughout eternity in hell. And, if such a fate awaits, then that person must be pure evil AND a liar. Being so the case, since Jews are supposed to get it the worst in Islamic hell, they HAVE to believe all those hateful lies said about Israel in Hamas children's TV. Have you seen "Farfur"? If not, I'll paste the YouTube site for it in this thread.

I have seen farfur several times and what I find very interesting is that Jews are not taught to hate arabs in their schools. You won't find a single credible educational film in the Jewish world that promotes hatred of the Arabs. That's the difference between civilized people and barbarians- their level of tolerance.

Everyone likes to forget Jordan's original name. Trans Jordan. The border between Jordan and Israel was the Jordan River. Jordan captured the West Bank in the 1948 war. Egypt captured the Sinai and Gaza at the some time. Nobody was screaming about what happened then. Israel takes it back and everybody screams loudly. Why?

Israel in its very foundation is bigoted and cruel and there is a large litany of aggression against non-Jews and terrorism abroad. Educate yourself in these matters. I have on numerous threads provided links to the specifics, but all you need to do is search. They are not allies of ours. They are greedy demanding children of ours, and I for one think it is time to kick them out of the nest. I do not believe in any explicit or implicit right of any nation to exist, and I see no advantage to US to support the existence of this particular one. What are we getting for our money and efforts? They are neither better nor worse than any of their neighbors, but they certainly are costly. We need to just leave this area to its own conflicts, offering mediation and diplomacy to promote peace, and ONLY THAT.

Well said:
For the last two thousand years they have been engaged in all sorts of crimes against humanity. And the worse sufferers have been those nations who committed the blunder of opening their doors to this highly insidious cabal. If we just look at the history of the recent past the truth of this statement would be quite manifest. They were turned out of Portugal and Spain. They were driven out of England in 1920. They were twice pushed away from France, once in 1306 and again in 1394. They were exiled from Belgium in 1370 and from Czechoslovakia in 1380. Holland drove them out in 1944 ad Italy rid itself of them in 1540. Germany pushed them out in 1551. Russia exiled them in 1510. Indeed excitement has been their lot since the beginning; and if we look at the earlier history too, we will find that they have met the same fate all along

Do not mistake me, Daylight. I have nothing against anyone's religion, as long as it is practiced in peace, with tolerance for those who do not practice it. It is this strange, very expensive, support we show for certain nations in the Near East, especially our military support. Israel is not alone in this category, Saudi Arabia is right in there too. It is our idiotic involvement in Iraq and our hypocritical condemnation of Iran and not Israel over nuclear capabilities. I want us disengaged from the whole area, except for commerce and diplomacy.

Dimwit, I mean daylight, when did Israel invade or even threaten Iran with invasion? On peace in the region, have you guys run out of missile and mortars? Every time you turn around someone from Lebanon, Syria or Jordan is launching something into Israel. Last summer, I think in June or July, Israel's Mossad took corrective action against a Syrian sight that had chemical, biological or nuclear weapons being prepped for something. Rather than only attacking Israel's defenses perhaps you'd prefer to comment on the sight. It's rumored to be in Syria and staffed by Iranians. No I suppose you wouldn't want to comment on that now would you...

It's not that I don't want to commentbut I believe that every country has the right to match their weapons with their hostile neighbors. I don't consider Israel has any right to be where they are now. If you ask me that if they have the right to live yes but not as a country but as citizens of Palestine under the Palestinian rule, this the opinion of the religious Jewish people and their Rabbis. I am not against the Jewish people or Christians. It is the Zionist who cause the problem in the region and America is the only country in the world that could change the course of this world. There is no other way that this problem could be solved or one day we are going to face a terrible war that will kill millions of people and the world is going to pay for being inactive.

Well, if the US did not support Israel the Arabs and Iran would try to "erase it from the map" and Israel would, probably, have no choice but to fight back turning the attackers into piles of radioactive trash. As a result, an average American would have to pay $50 or more for a gallon of gas. Apparently, it makes perfect sense for the US (and, probably, the rest of the civilized world) to prevent this from happening.
Regarding "occupation of Palestinian land" please consider that a sovereign independent state was offered to Palestinian Arabs in 1948, 1967, 1978, 2000, 2001 and they've REJECTED IT EVERY SINGLE TIME. It seems that they like the occupation and are doing everything in their abilities for the occupation to continue.

Actually, what we give Israel is billions of dollars in credits to buy US army toys. When Israel developed its own knockoff F-16 at bargain basement prices, it was the US defense lobby that marched up Capitol Hill and demanded our leaders put an end to its development. The price? You guessed it...a nice package of F-16s.
But all is not lost. Our combat aircraft designs are the best in large part due to the incredible, priceless air combat feedback from Israeli pilots.

Not exactly. It was the IAF (Israeli Air Force) that preferred to buy American-made F-16 instead of Israeli own Lavi... and no, the Lavi was functionally better but twice more expensive than the F-16 (low volumes, you know...) The IAF General in charge preferred to have twice as many F-16 for the same budget killing the Lavi and causing thousands of Israeli Aircraft Industry workers to lose their jobs. He made the right decision.

"Israel occupation of Palestine." What a crock. During WW1 the plan for a Jewish state was made. It started with a paper in the British government and was taken up by the League of Nations.Jews during that time were fleeing persecution from the Muslims all over the Middle east. Look at the census of people in those areas over those years. They dawdled around until after WW2. Jew were a large majority in Israel when the countries were created in 1948. Who attacked who? Who took territory from the other and kept it?
Your hypocrisy is showing through.

Ahmadinejad?
He (Ahmadinejad) sees his main mission, as he recounted in a Nov. 16, 2005, speech in Tehran, as to "pave the path for the glorious reappearance of Imam Mahdi, may Allah hasten his reappearance."
With Iran's continued development of nuclear technology in defiance of the West, some analysts fear Ahmadinejad's intent is to trigger the kind of global conflagration he envisions will set the stage for the end of the world.
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?A...
The Islamic Republic of Iran broadcasting website said in a program called "The World toward Illumination," that the Mahdi will form an army to defeat the enemies of Islam in a series of apocalyptic battles, in which the Mahdi will overcome his archvillain in Jerusalem.

Scott Peterson of the Christian Science Monitor shows the centrality of mahdaviat in Mr. Ahmadinejad's outlook and explores its implications for his policies.
As mayor of Tehran, for example, Mr. Ahmadinejad appears to have in 2004 secretly instructed the city council to build a grand avenue to prepare for the Mahdi. A year later, as president, he allocated $17 million for a blue-tiled mosque closely associated with mahdaviat in Jamkaran, south of the capital. He has instigated the building of a direct Tehran-Jamkaran railroad line. He had a list of his proposed cabinet members dropped into a well adjacent to the Jamkaran mosque, it is said, to benefit from its purported divine connection.
He often raises the topic, and not just to Muslims. When addressing the United Nations in September, Mr. Ahmadinejad flummoxed his audience of world political leaders by concluding his address with a prayer for the Mahdi's appearance

Ok ... I stand corrected on Ahmadinejad and Armageddon.
I guess Ahmadinejad and Hagee should get together. Other than the 2 different Gods, they have have a lot in common.
Hagee's "Christians United for Israel" is a 'front' for their desire to bring about the Rapture - one of the 'signs' of the Rapture is for Israel to return to its homeland.
But, only "Christians" will be 'saved' via the Rapture, so all Jews that have not 'converted' will not be saved. Hagee's group is not really a 'friend' to Israel at all ....

I would agree with you that both Ahmadinejad and Hagee are nuts. BUT Ahmadinejad is a dangerous nut - can you even imagine a nuclear weapon under his control?
I listened to Ahmadinejad's UN speech but had no idea what he was talking about when he mentioned the Mahdi's appearance
A week or 2 after his speech, I went out to lunch with 2 friends - both Muslims. They were talking about what Ahmadinejad had said
They explained what he was talking about and the fact that Ahmadinejad believes his purpose on earth is to pave the way for the Mahdi's return

The invisible killer rabbit named Bush, Cheney and the neocons who think armageddon will whisk them away to heaven.
They will be left behind wondering what they did wrong.
Heres a hint. Don't try to force God's hand he will do things in his time. Not ours.

Your opinion means about as much as a fly to me as to what I know about being a Christian.
Try looking at your stuffed shirt attitude and you'll see the very thing Jesus warned the hypocrites about.
Take the beam out of your eye so you might be able to see the sliver in mine and remove it from mine.

"Jimmy Dufess Which one of the countries think Armageddon would be a GOOD thing?"
Unfortunately, many of the religious right nutjobs here in the USA agree, thinking that that would bring "the rapture," etc. And some of those whackjobs are in our federal government setting policy.

Jimmy Carter is an ignorant fool and should be locked up.
Yeah, he is an ignorant fool if he doesn't support the Zionist crimes in the region. He should support Israel for everything they do to systematically eliminate the Palestinians after slowly stealing their land, destroying their crops and poisoning the water that they drink and also they kill Palestinian men, women and children. These are crimes Jimmy Cart should approve and then sing the praise of Israel.

Actually Carter represents the finest traditions of american democracy. What we should take note of is all the zionist traitors in America who attack Carter for telling the truth. We should then investigate whether their primary loyalty is to America - and revoke their citizenship if not.
Dual Citizenship -- Loyal to Whom?
Do No Evil â;; So, you might ask, are there any other dual Israel-American citizens who hold US government positions that could compromise American security? Yes....

Jimmi was told by our government not to go and suck up to Hammas. He did it any way.
He should be arrested and waterboarded.
If you wanna blame Nixon for carters blunders then I'll just blame Clinton for Bushes' blunders. Fair is fair.

Paul Volcker, the Carter-appointed head of the Federal Reserve, jammed interest rates up to national-heart-attack levels and left them there until inflationary expectations were well and truly tamed.

How do you figure that? Jobs were leaving the USA. Inflation and mortgage were out of control. We gave up the Canal, was loosing the Cold War and had a president that was too chicken to even stand up to a bunch of Islamic students. America lost it's confidence in him with good reason.

Wow, if your ideas of communism are so great, I'll give you the plane fair to travel to North Korea or Cuba. I'm sure both countries would find you work. Trickle up? Did you stay up all night playing in your mommy's basement coming up with that one? Oh, let me guess, you're an unemployed air traffic controller still mad about being fired, right?

Clinton gave nuke secrets to China, ignored catching Bin Laden when we could have, Ignored terrorism while chasing Monica around the White House with his cigar, Ignored the sleeper cell that did the 911 attack during their planning and flight training, lied under oath, lost his license to practice law, Infringed on the Second Amendment with his stupid Brady Bill, and stole the furniture in the White House when he left.
A real class act.

Totally incorrect.
Read this about China and WHEN they got their hands on most of those 'secrets'.
http://www.consortiumnews.com/2005/110305.html
The REPUBLICANS totally IGNORED the growing threat of Bin Laden and al Qaeda because THEY were too busy chasing Clinton for 8 years trying to "get" him on something. All they could come up with was lying about sex.
There was no "opportunity" for Clinton to capture Bin Laden. That is a total myth made up by the Republicans to try to discredit him. The 9/11 Commission reports debunk that myth.
Clinton's administration compiled a HUGE amount of intelligence data on Bin Laden and al Qaeda - when they handed all that data over to Bush and Rice, they ignored it.
The FBI and the CIA screwed up by not talking to each other about the intelligence data they had gathered regarding the suspicicious events such as the flight training.
Bush IGNORED the August 2001 PDB that was practically an invitation to the 9/11 event.

That is a TOTAL MYTH. That never happened - there is no documentation to support that and plenty of documentation to debunk it.

BTW, automan909, do you know that Susan Rice, the undersecretary of state for Clinton who was the point person when Sudan begged us (three times) to take Bin Laden off their hands, is Obama's chief foreign policy advisor? Nay, nay, she said with Clinton's approval and Madeline's acquiescence. We can't touch him. Why that might be controversial.

U.S. Was Foiled Multiple Times in Efforts To Capture Bin Laden or Have Him Killed
The government of Sudan, employing a back channel direct from its president to the CIA, offered in the early spring of 1996 to arrest bin Laden and place him in Saudi custody, according to officials and former officials in all three countries.
The Clinton administration struggled to find a way to accept the offer in secret contacts that stretched from a meeting at a Rosslyn hotel on March 3, 1996, to a fax that closed the door on the effort 10 weeks later. Unable to persuade the Saudis to accept bin Laden, and lacking a case to indict him in U.S. courts at the time, the Clinton administration finally gave up on the capture.

Osama bin Laden: missed opportunities
NBC News has obtained, exclusively, extraordinary secret video, shot by the U.S. government. It illustrates an enormous opportunity the Clinton administration had to kill or capture bin Laden. Critics call it a missed opportunity.

That WP article you provided has been twisted by neocons to distort the facts in the article.
The very first sentence of that article says only that Sudan offered to "arrest Osama bin Laden and place him in Saudi custody."
The article then detailed efforts by the White House and the State Department to convince the Saudis to accept custody of Bin Laden, which the authorities in Riyadh adamantly refused.
Nowhere does the article state that Sudan agreed to "hand bin Laden over to the United States", because that never happened.
That turned out to be another myth and was debunked by the 9/11 Commission after extensive interviews with all pertinent parties in the Clinton Administration.

Obama said the United States must first address Iran's attempt to gain nuclear capabilities by going before the United Nations Security Council and lobbying the international community to apply more pressure on Iran to cease nuclear activities. That pressure should come in the form of economic sanctions, he said.
But if those measures fall short, the United States should not rule out military strikes to destroy nuclear production sites in Iran, Obama said.
"The big question is going to be, if Iran is resistant to these pressures, including economic sanctions, which I hope will be imposed if they do not cooperate, at what point are we going to, if any, are we going to take military action?" Obama asked.

Actually the quickest route to peace in the mideast might be for the Iranians to announce that they already have 20 nuclear missiles pointed at Tel Aviv, Acre, Haifa, Jaffa,... Then we might see an end to israeli nuclear blackmail of the mideast, an end to zionist crimes against humanity, an end to zionist treason in america and the beginning of serious peace negotiations.
