Not only the nukes are "secret", but nobody is allowed to know that many of the leaders /reps in the US government are dual citizens of Israel/USA and of course AIPAC can interfere in every election and vet every candidate trying to be elected;
Russia is blamed, but Israel is the big foreign influence.

wbilct • 5 years ago

MAGA, no dual citizenship!

Thomas Carlson • 5 years ago

OK, my initial comment was removed by the thought police. Can I at least say that AIPAC's influence on politics in the USA is... tribalism?

Mark Thomason • 5 years ago

Almost all current US assistance to Israel would be illegal under existing American law on nations which have gotten nuclear weapons the way Israel has done.

Almost all German assistance to Israel, in particular the submarines that are a major part of its nuclear deterrent, would be illegal under German law if it admitted that Israel's nuclear weapons are used by those submarines.

Refusing to admit this is not just a public relations ploy. It is far more fundamental.

Thomas Carlson • 5 years ago

The rule of law is the last thing that determines US foreign policy. Look at all the wars we're currently fighting. They are clearly illegal under the Geneva Conventions. Does anyone care? Do Bush, Obama, and Trump have to worry about traveling out of the USA for fear of ending up in The Hague for war crimes? Of course not.

It is fundamental that we realize what we've become... a lawless rogue nation totally controlled by dark sinister entities posing as "guardians" of justice, freedom, and truth. Same as Israel, of course.

bob balkas • 5 years ago

Classes [two: group with oodles of stolen money and their servile police chiefs, generals, journalists, spies, 'educators] against masses; had it start no later than, say, 12k bce and is still going on today in much of the world.
So, in too many manners to count here, US classes do not differ an ioata from the classes in UK, Indonesia, Egypt, Israel, Russia, Afghanistan, Syria.....

Thomas Carlson • 5 years ago

That's a total word salad, Bob. Can you tell me in one complete sentence how it relates to Israel and the USA?

bob balkas • 5 years ago

Not in love with commands or demands.

Jay Hall • 5 years ago

What Israel wants Israel gets,,,they hold the money bags,,,and the USA bows before them, especially Prez. Trump.

richardvajs • 5 years ago

The royal treatment of Israel, and the crappy treatment of Palestine is already beginning to catch the attention of the Progressive Wing of the Democratic Party. This attention deeply annoys the Clinton Wing of the Democratic Party, who like the status quo. This divide cannot be "schmoozed over". If it costs the Democrats the House control this November, watch the fur fly. We'll finally see what is more valuable to the Dems - votes or campaign cash.

America Firster • 5 years ago

"Already"? It's been going on for 70 years plus.

jake • 5 years ago

The American left, whether it be "progressive" or "socialist", is impotent in America and ,always has been, as it should be. Most Americans are moderate middle of the road, and concerned with the problems of everyday life.The democrats have disconnected from their roots .Hillary spoke of Islamophobia and open borders-did she get elected.?

richardvajs • 5 years ago

jake,
Most Americans are not making it - and that is the problem with everyday life. Hillary did not speak of Medicare for All, college free tuition, or the government as the employer of last result. She wore her $12,000 Versage jacket and talked about shit that interested the elite 10% - damned right she didn't get elected. Wait until you see the Democrats run a true Progressive that will put the 90% in the driver's seat. FDR showed the way.

jake • 5 years ago

Agreed, but it has been my experience that progressives want to fulfill their own agendas and ideologies at the expense of the man in the streets. Look at Nicaragua,USSR. In college,I saw a liberal fawn over certain individuals of a certain ethnic persuasion, and defecate on me.

richardvajs • 5 years ago

Jake,
You equate "liberal" with "progressive"; they are no longer the same. Hillary is a Liberal; Bernie is a Progressive. Liberals represent the elites; Progressives the working class. The Clinton Liberals have a guiding philosophy that if they allow a few minorities (racial or gender) into the privileged circle of wealth, this will satisfy the lot. Progressives do not get into "Identity politics"; they see a rigged system by the rich and want to see the 99% get a fair deal.
Nicaragua is basically a oligarchy calling itself a socialism. The USSR killed itself by getting into an arms race with a country that can print all of the money it wants, If you want to talk about successful socialism, bring up Scandinavia.

jake • 5 years ago

Unfortunately we are not Scandinavia.We are burdened with vast military expenditures, and a parasitic subclass that abuses substances, is gratuitously violent, and has no interest in being productive.
Nothing would please me more than to see a competent. honest and caring person, of almost any political back round,in power.
Nothing would please me more that truly helping the working poor, and ending the tax differential between earned and investment income. Welfare should be for orphans cripples, and the temporarily unemployed, rather that a multigenerational way of life
The USSR killed itself by killing millions of its own people, crushing freedom of expression and initiative and entrepreneurship, being ruled by the Red party and its secret police, military paranoia, and its Afghanistan misadventure

richardvajs • 5 years ago

Why are we "burdened" with vast military expenditures? Name one enemy who is spending in a similar fashion. We (or someone in charge) are choosing this path
Parasitic subclass? Of course - every society (probably even including Neanderthals) has had individual who were poor hunters or careless mothers.
Those who inherit their wealth include a large number of unproductive individuals. Out of the whole billionaire Walton Clan, only one was productive. Remember, when you start deciding who doesn't deserve to eat, we are also deciding who doesn't deserve to live.
And as for being governed by "secret police, military paranoia, and its Afghanistan misadventure", what the hell do you think is going on in America?

jake • 5 years ago

Restoring a functional estate tax after generous deductions would go far at reducing generational inequality.
whatever your political views, you must consider if we pulled back to fortress America, Iran,China, and Russia would no doubt expand their power. Fortress America is not well defended now, how would it be after reductions? We need more bang for less bucks.
As flawed as the US is, we never had forced collectivization, gulags for political prisoners and the innocent, and economic genocide of millions as was done in the Ukraine.No doubt though,the Iraq misadventure was and is a self destructive nightmare

richardvajs • 5 years ago

For good reasons, Thomas Jefferson hated the English laws regarding inheritance by the aristocracy. Today, there are always tears shed over the family farm, even though it is usually the family Buick dealership.
Military conquest is a 20th Century idea - there is now nothing left to steal. The natural resources are about gone; fossil fuels are obsolete and the planet is burning up. And who wants to conquer more people (who you'll need to feed).
And Jake, trust me, the gulags, and genocide are coming to America unless we stop them. I never thought that the victims of the Holocaust would turn into genocidal monsters, but there in Gaza, you have it.

America Firster • 5 years ago

Dems will not do it. They are beholden to the money men.

Paulie Baer • 5 years ago

This is hardly surprising given the nature of the US Vassal State with respect to the Zionist State...

liveload • 5 years ago

WNP-136 is an unconstitutional piece of crap that needs to be challenged out in the open. We need a high profile case, where they try and fire a person for criticizing Israeli nukes, to be dragged in front of the world. Personally only one other person in my circles is even aware of this regulation and I work with some seriously credentialed individuals with decades of exp. This is the kind of thing they use to silence dissent and ruin careers, and at the same time keep the whole thing quiet and out of the media.

NUMEC is huge and should be loudly pursued. The time to shine the light on the roaches is now.

Mitchell Paul • 5 years ago

Why should Gentiles be allowed nuclear weapons...they have a long history of violence ,@ they contributed but a minority of the intellectual content required for thier development.

Joel W • 5 years ago

I think much more importantly, is Israel ever going to admit to it???

antarcticus • 5 years ago

Admit that they killed JFK because he was shutting down their nuclear program?

Joel W • 5 years ago

Well, we can do this all week if we go one at a time. Haha. I see your JFK, and raise you a USS Liberty.

jake • 5 years ago

Israel is an independent country responsible for its own defense.They are under no obligation to admit or deny possession of nuclear weapons.

Thomas Carlson • 5 years ago

You'd have to say the same about Iran, right?

jake • 5 years ago

Not in the least. Israel never blew up an Iranian embassy, Israel never blew up an Iranian embassy, Israel never blew up an Iranian Shiite community center, Israe never threatened to Burn and destroy Iran,Israel does not have a terrorist bandit army posed on Iran's northern border

America Firster • 5 years ago

They sure as Hell blew up the USS Liberty. And destroyed Lebanon 12 years ago. And murder Palestinians every day. And have murdered several Iranian scientists. And threaten Iran every day of the week, And if they are so independent, then let them take their hand out of the pockets of the American and German taxpayers.

wars r u.s. • 5 years ago

Did you say Israel didn't blow up an Iranian embassy twice for effect? And since the US is responsible for approximately 20 million deaths since WW2, I would think we would be the most "unqualified" to posses nukes.

Thomas Carlson • 5 years ago

The topic at hand is Israel admitting to having nukes, jake, not your paranoid fantasies about Iran.

jake • 5 years ago

I did not know that you are a licensed physician who can determine who is paranoid. I said nothing that was not,unfortunately, reality.

Thomas Suarez's, "State of Terror: How Terrorism Created Modern Israel".

jake • 5 years ago

Both the Jews living in Palestine in the 1940's through 1970's, and the Palestinians Arabs were/are desperate.Desperate people do desperate things. They must work out their differences. During the time of the Oslo peace talks,there was a glimmer of hope. Iran was against the peace talks, toughening stances.

A list is one thing. Actual evidence for any, let alone all, of the names on that list is another. Got any?

Edward Huguenin • 5 years ago

Who the hell died and appointed Israel the “master” of the Middle East?? Iran (and all other middle-eastern countries) KNOWS that any nuclear “discharge” would affect the whole middle east . . . Any country that possesses nukes is not stupid . . . Israel has over a hundred nukes, manufactured with stolen American classified technology, refuses inspections of its nuclear facilities and is, in general, a “pain in the ass” to the rest of the world, along with (blackmailed) “big brother” United States of America.

It is no secret that the U S State Department is infested with dual-nationality Israeli-Americans who form (and foment) the bulk of our neocon “foreign policy straight from Tel Aviv. In fact there are 40 or so congressmen and senators with dual-nationality “ties” to Israel.

Most people are unaware that Israel holds a “Damocles sword” over the world. Any attack on Israel will be met with a nuclear device being detonated in a city of Israel’s choosing. Israel calls this the “Samson option” and is very real.

Israel refuses to abide by IAEA guidelines concerning its nukes as its nukes are distributed around the world. Israel would not be able to produce all of them. No delivery systems are needed as Israel’s nukes are already “in place”. Look for another “false flag” operation with the blame being put on Iran. You can bet that some Iranian passports will be found in the rubble.

Tedx • 5 years ago

Yes the US (government people) can and will continue to lie about Israeli nukes. That's what the US Congress and president are paid to do. That's their job.

Tedx • 5 years ago

Just a reminder to the 98 percent of fluoride-lobotomized Americans, who psychometric scientists claim are biologically incapable of EVER experiencing Intelligent Human Thought, based on I.Q. studies: These lying government people are just good Americans trapped in a bad system, and you should not hold them responsible for participating in the mass slaughter of you and your family.

Jeffrey Fein • 5 years ago

Thought police.

First they cut off Wikileaks from funding, then they came for Julian Assange. Then they demonitized alternative media on YouTube. Then the FBI came after alternative media -- Antiwar.com and Justin Raimondo "investigated". Then Antiwar's own Scott Horton erased from Twitter (and Facebook?) along with Alex Jones and a "turncoat" NYT investigative reporter.

You would think this would inspire AW.C to defend freedom of speech. But no, the thought police are here as well. Don't think of criticizing the .... (not allowed to write the name.)

You can find the "offending" material at .... (but no, not allowed even to tell you that.)

AW.C: cowed, if not owned, by the Hasbara.

For twenty years AW.C has been at the top of my bookmarks, and the first place I go each day to check on the disheartening lack of human progress.

I'd like to hear from Justin. Defend this policy. Why are you allowing the same abuses to which you and AW.C have been subjected, to be practiced here on AW.C?

And one other thing. Why is it that "Jake", the Hasbara rep currently assigned to AW.C, cannot be blocked? Check it out, you'll see that it's true. What's that about? Does he come in through a "backdoor" not owned by Disqus?

bob balkas • 5 years ago

Had US made a huge mistake by not denying that i had made atom bombs by aug '45. And, instead of denying it or holding it in secret, it used them and let the whole world know it.

If Israel has nukes, i wonder if Russia knows it? So far--and as faik, Putin has not admitted that. I am hoping he would and very soon admit that. For the world has to know whether Israel or any other country besides the seven countries known to have WMD has or is manufacturing nuclear weapons.

Mary Myers • 5 years ago

Putin knows.
