Israel Rejects Nuclear Arms Ban, Blame Muslims

“Until the Muslim world .. behaves like Western Europe, there can be no debate on nuclear disarmament,” says Ehud Barak. Meaning, until all Muslims support Israel occupation in Palestinian land, they are still a threat to Israel. Old song with the same naivete.

Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak insisted today that his government will not consider signing any treaty calling for a nuclear-free Middle East because of the “unruly” nature of the Muslim nations in the region.

“Until the Muslim world from Marakesh (Morocco) to Bangladesh behaves like Western Europe, there can be no debate on nuclear disarmament,” Barak declared in an editorial published by Yedioth Ahronoth.

Israel is actually the only country in the Middle East which possesses a nuclear arsenal, though it only occasionally admits that this is the case. The nation launched a 1981 attack on Iraq over suspicions it might be attempting to acquire a nuclear weapon. It has already repeatedly threatened to attack Iran over its civilian nuclear program.
