| Sharon Threatens Global Nuclear War
By Jeffrey Steinberg
December 09, 2002
If there is one nation on this planet that deserves to be described and dealt with as a rogue state, armed with weapons of mass destruction and intent on using them, it is Israel, under the terror reign of war criminal Ariel Sharon.
If this was a matter of assertion or conjecture in the past, statements coming out of top Israeli officials in the past days have eliminated any cause for hesitation.
On June 26, the Israeli newspaper of record, Haaretz, cited two top Israeli space scientists, who declared that Israel now has the capacity to fire missiles at targets anywhere on earth.
Prof. Moshe Gelman, head of the Asher Institute at Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, boasted to Haaretz that from the moment the state of Israel has the capability to launch a satellite into orbit around the earth at a height of hundreds of kilometers, it established [its] capability to launch, by means of a missile, a payload to any locapon the international community to immediately make the entire Mideast a denuclearized zone, by forcing Israel to dismantle its nuclear weapons arsenal.
LaRouche characterised the announcement of the Israeli ICBM capability as a phase-change in a global strategic situation, already driven to the brink of war by the onrushing financial collapse and the June 25 speech by President George W. Bush, which gave Sharon a de facto American green light to take any action against the Palestinians, which he deems necessary.
NATO officially warned The Israeli intent to use nuclear weapons was a topic of, at minimum, implicit discussion, at a June 26 Brussels behind-closed-doors meeting of NATOs North Atlantic Council, which was addressed by the current head of the Israeli Mossad, Ephraim Halevy.
According to the June 27 Haaretz, Halevy reported to the NATO officials that Mossad is convinced that Iran is developing intermediate and long range missiles, and weapons-grade nuclear capr the mass transfer, although he wrote of his own personal opposition to the Sharon scheme: First, the countrys three ultra-modern submarines would take up firing positions out at sea.
Borders would be closed, a news blackout imposed, and all foreign journalists rounded up and confined to a hotel as guests of the government. He continued, A force of 12 divisions, 11 of them armoured, plus various territorial units suitable for occupation duties, would be deployed: five against Egypt, three against Syria, and one opposite Lebanon.
This would leave three to face east as well as enough forces to put a tank inside every Arab-Israeli village just in case their populations get any funny ideas.
The expulsion of the Palestinians would require only a few brigades. They would not drag people out of their houses but use heavy artillery to drive them out; the damage caused to Jenin would look like a pinprick in comparison. Van Creveld estimated that none of the Arab states would revast, and has now been qualitatively transformed, by Israels acquisition of three German-made diesel powered submarines, which, according to a recent study by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, are armed with nuclear warheads on Cruise missiles.
Carnegie published a report early in June 2002, detailing the Israeli nuclear weapons program.
That book-length report on global nuclear weapons proliferation, Deadly Arsenals-Tracking Weapons of Mass Destruction, included an entire chapter on Israels nuclear, chemical and biological weapons program.
The authors wrote, Probably the most important nuclear-related development in Israel is the formation of its sea-based nuclear arm.
By July 2000 Israel completed taking delivery of all three of the Dolphin-class submarines it had ordered at the Thyssen-Nordseewerke shipyard in Kiel, Germany.
In doing so, it is widely believed, Israel moved significantly toward acquiring a survivable second-strike nuclear capability. fact that Israel has achieved a deployable nuclear triad was advertised in a June 15 report in the Washington Post, under the headline, Israel has submarine-based atomic arms capability.

| | The Israeli nukes were acquired (against the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty-NPT treaty which the rogue state of Israel refused to sign because it was in the process of acquiring nuclear weapons)and are in defiance of paragraph 14 of UN Security Council 687 (against Iraq) which calls for the Middle East to be a zone free of nuclear weapons (as such obviously includes Israel as well).. Israel has attacked, invaded and occupied its neighbors (and intentionally and brutally attacked and murdered American sailors on the USS Liberty in order to invade and occupy the Golan of Syria which Israel still illegally occupies to this day: http://www.ussliberty.org) as I am more concerned about Israeli aggression with its reported 200 to 400 hundred nukes (with the war criminal Sharon at the helm) than Iraq: | | | | Guest | | | | Guest | | | | Guest | | | | Guest | | | | Guest | | | | Guest | | | | Guest | | | | Guest | | | | | ©2002-2009 WarWithoutEnd.co.uk |
