> samson option > because it's israel's official nuclear policy do you faggots ever read any actual history as opposed to listening to conspiracy theory podcasts? the samson option was conceived of after the 1967 war. in the event that the israelis were in danger of being pushed into the sea by a combined attack by the arab nations around them, theyd nuke the arab capitals and major population centers. it was never about the bullshit dreamed up in later thriller novels (which dont work for a variety of reasons). israel has a very limited number of nukes because they have one plant in the negev producing fissionables. those weapons all have to be maintained. nuclear decay means each warhead is only viable for so many years before it has to be replaced. israel doesnt have the capacity to maintain their tactical arsenal and these warheads all over the world at the same time. its thriller novel bullshit.
