Israel may have chemical weapons, but I’m sure recognize their limitations. As terror weapons chemical munitions are great and will indiscriminately kill large numbers of civilians. However as battlefield weapons they are difficult to control and may have their effectiveness thwarted by even small changes in wind or atmospheric conditions. Small tactical nukes especially the enhanced radiation variety (neutron bomb)might be more useful to defend Israel from an all out assault.

That was interesting!
Probably a non-thermonuclear as no one has ever tried a underwater shot > 20kt.
It is just too dangerous.
Baker shot scared people so bad they only tried on other one.

I hope Israel has chemical weapons, Israel NEEDS them. Is that what this whole mess was about, to disarm little Israel and “even it all out?”

Egypt hasn’t ratified, among a few others including North Korea. I doubt Putin will make an issue of Israel. The Arabs will, but that’s what they do.

Russia had an enormous chemical weapons program throughout the years of the so-called Cold War, and it still does. Russia to prepare and support the Arab nations against Israel before the Six Day War and is at it again.

Yes, that, and noise support from political parties and religious organizations in every nation outside of Israel for helping Iran and its partner nations to build and mount nukes.

Not only do they have nuclear weapons (like Iran, aka “A-Bombs”) but thermonuclear weapons, like the big boys (aka “H-Bombs”) and chemical and biological weapons.

“No. Does Israel- nope. Not after siding with Obama.”

They haven’t sided with Obama. Bibi has remained very noncommittal and has stayed on the sidelines. Only that old whore socialist, commie, pinko Shimon Peres has vocally sided with Obama, and even he has shut up of late.

I got a letter from a ministry I support in Israel, who gives me a run down of the politics and events in Israel.. and that they were shocked and horrified, in their government that Obama did not strike Syria.

They believe that Syria needs to be dealt with one way or the other

And that is wrong, for any of them, to want us to enter a war that is based on a lie.

We have spy ducks and killer sharks.

We have no need for WMDs.

Yeah, it’s a mixed bag in Israel.

Most believe the Sunni are better than the Shia.

I just don’t know is my answer.

I do know that a limited strike is stupid and Kerry/Putin plan is even more stupid.
