Israel's Nukes, cont.

An update to my earlier post regarding whether or not Israel should go public with their nuclear arsenal.

A Sullivan reader points out that the reason why the US doesn't want this to happen is because the US is a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, and Israel is not. That means Israel is prohibited from receiving any US (or any foreign) military aid. This reader claims that Israel receives 25% of the US's foreign aid budget and half of our military aid budget.

So the US is, I guess, willingly violating the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty in giving aid to Israel. Betcha that doesn't stop (not that I would want it to).

And we've all seen how many other treaties and US laws were violated since 2001 in the name of national security.

All the law-breaking here leaves me feeling a little nauseous.
