| Israel Threatens To Launch Nuclear Attack On Islamic Holy Sites |
| 2002-12-10 |
| Source: Tehran Times A high-ranking Israeli officer threatened that the Zionist regime would launch nuclear attack on Islamic holy sites in the Middle East, an Israeli newspaper said Sunday. In case Israel was attacked by states or groups, the Jewish state would respond by dropping nuclear bombs on Islamic cities such as Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia and Qom in Iran. The Haaretz newspaper quoted an unidentified high-ranking officer a s saying. I can't say that I'm surprised. Curiously, my indignation meter hasn't stirred off zero. I suspect that the same statement made prior to 13 months ago would have bothered me. It is an irony of our time Iraq has been suffering for a decade because it is accused of having some capabilities of unconventional weapons, while Israel announces that it possesses nuclear weapons, but there is not any international action against it. Mainly because Israel isn't run by a lunatic... The officer, a guide in the Israeli military academy, was quoted as saying that Israel possesses hundreds of nuclear warheads along with their delivery systems, including long-range ballistic missiles, long-range bombers and nuclear submarines. Indeed, while is Iraq under the pressure, Israel is the only entity in the Middle East to possess a huge arsenal of weapons of mass destruction, including a sizable nuclear arsenal. One weapon is sufficient. But I don't see any Arab armies attacking Israel, like they used to do prior to 1973... It is unfortunate that the United States, Israel's main protector, has always prevented any serious move to discuss Israel's weapons of mass destruction. But at the same time it has accused a number of other countries of trying to acquire weapons of mass destruction. It has put them under pressure on the basis of the very baseless accusations it has leveled against them. We don't complain about Britain having them, either. We don't complain about France having them, or Russia. We didn't even really worry about Pakland having them, until the nutbags started assuming power — drawn irresistably to those "Islamic nukes." It is time the Islamic world in the first place and the international community too took serious action to contain Israel. The Zionist regime is an occupationist, expansionist entity. It must be contained, else the entire world will be in danger. The Islamic world isn't going to send an army against Israel precisely because of those nuclear weapons. The Islamic World™ and the International Community™ have been working as hard as they can to "contain" Israel — whose expansionist ambitions have come to the fore only when she's been attacked. |

| #3 I particularly liked the Zionist expansionist entity withdrawal from the Sinai and Lebenon. Very tricky. Oh, and you've got it wrong, the Islamic world isn'g to to send an army aginst Isreal because they tried in 1948, 1956, 1968, 1973 and got skunked each time. The Zionist nuclear weapons are nothing compared to the Arabs inability to fight against non-civilians. |

| #1 "a guide in the Israeli military academy" Sure, I'd believe some plebe at West Point is describing the military policy of the United States. |
