David P. Goldman opinion regarding Israeli nuke subs
2025-01-27
[X] Apropo of the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz: Israel has five nuclear-equipped submarines. Each carries several ballistic missiles, and each missile can deliver several nuclear warheads. Each boat can destroy every city of size in the Middle East, Central Asia and Pakistan. When we say, "Never again," we mean it in deadly earnest. Hate us all you want, but mess with us at your peril.

#5  Israel's most recent ICBM can pretty much hit any city/country of importance.

#4  Deterrence is the foundation of Western security.

When the enemy fears the consequences of an attack he will not attempt an attack.

Objectively, maintaining and strengthening deterrence would be a vital security interest of all Western nations.

Why then, was Western consensus policy, especially after 9/11, a policy that did maximally erode deterrence, by making enemies and potential enemies hate us more and fear us less?

And that's why Muslims and their Globalist allies use "Palestinian" proxies and their "International" kangaroo courts to attack Israel.

#2  The five Israeli Navy German-built Dolphin class diesel-electric can carry (nuclear capable?) cruise missiles. Not ballistic missiles...
