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.
