suggests Israel rid itself of any stockpile to promote Mideast peace.

Well, there are a number of ways in which a country could "rid itself" of extra nukes, but only one which actually would promote ,er, peace in the Middle East...

Sounds like a command.

[Map Kernow]

Yes, Israel should give up its nuclear weapons, but not before she uses them first on Iran, Syria, and Libya. (I would nuke al-Haramaani--the cities of Mecca and Medina, too, but what do I know?)

True. Sheets of radioactive glass are very peaceful.

[Guillermo]

Too funny...

This twit assumes that Mohammedans hate Israel because Israel has nucular weapons.

"Just get rid of them, and they won't hate you anymore!"

Is the UN really as useless as it appears to be?

Ain't that the truth!!

do you really have to ask??

The blue helmets are very proficient at assisting in ethnic cleansing (helping in the
orderly loading of victims for their final bus ride in the Balkans)
AND
infecting the people they are looking after in Southeast Asia with AIDS/HIV
(I can't remember if that was Cambodia and/or Laos).

As I tell shocked lefty friends, if I was an endangered civilian in a
third-world battlezone, I'd probably run as far away from the blue helmets as I could.
They work for an organization that is now simply a club for countries run by murdering dictators.

It IS awful hard to find a reasonably priced piece of trinitite now days...

[TigersEye]

Mr. ElBaradei said he cannot confirm independently that Israel has nuclear arms, but that "we work on the assumption that Israel has nuclear capability."

Good thinking.

[ETERNAL WARMING]

LOL So, the Pro-Arab/Pali UN wants Israel to disarm to make the takeover more pleasant.

In a word: YES!

[George W. Bush]

The head of the United Nations' nuclear watchdog agency says he believes Israel has nuclear weapons and suggests Israel rid itself of any stockpile to promote Mideast peace.

No!! Really?

Who needs the Comedy Channel when we can guffaw endlessly at these jokers at the U.N.? The best part is that they're actually serious.

[George W. Bush]

In other recent reporting, Israel is hollowing out a mountain to use as a hardened bunker for its military and government leaders during a nuclear strike.

And they're going to deploy their nukes on those new subs. I think the subs are German. Personally, I'd prefer that we sell them some of our old nuke boats instead.

Israel is becoming pretty blatant about pointing its hundreds of nukes at its neighbors. Good for them.

IIRC, in a shallow-water environment like the Med, a diesel-electric sub is actually superior - harder to detect, among other things. Perhaps some submariner freepers could offer some insights.

When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.
They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "Stick to the Devil you know."
