Israel: Carter Offers Details on Nuclear Arsenal

Former President Jimmy Carter said Israel
held at least 150 nuclear weapons, the first time a current or former
American president had publicly acknowledged the Jewish state’s nuclear
arsenal. Asked at a news conference in Wales on Sunday how a future
president should deal with the Iranian nuclear threat, he sought to put
the risk in context by listing atomic weapons held globally. “The U.S.
has more than 12,000 nuclear weapons, the Soviet Union has about the
same, Great Britain and France have several hundred, and Israel has 150
or more,” he said, according to a transcript. The existence of Israeli
nuclear arms is widely assumed, but Israel has never admitted their
existence and American officials have stuck to that line in public for
years.
What is Jimmy Carter thinking? Why would he release the amount of nuclear weapons especially when its enemies all surrounding Israel wants to wipe them off the map? Hey Jimmy, if you didn't know Iran is a close neighbor of Israel and Syria is right above. No president have ever released the amount of nuclear weapons of any of our allies especially Israel and for good reason. Those countries in the mideast that want to destroy Israel like Iran and Syria, and terrorist organizations like Hamas Hezbollah now have vital information that could help them plan how to fight Israel. Seriously someone needs to put Jimmy Carter in an asylum before all of
America or its allies' secrets are released to those who want to destroy
us.
