So then why should other countries declare their nuclear arms? And why too should the International community apply pressure on these other countries? I'm sure that Iran, North Korea, Pakistan and India could argue that they are under threat as well, but this argument doesn't hold true for these countries yet it does for Israel? Why? Because this country happens to be an American Ally? Because they threaten the United States or the West?
And you mention hypocrisy? The only milestone is whether or not the US and her allies WANT you to have Nuclear Arms. If they do, then NO laws need apply to you,no treaties need be signed by you, if they do not then it's an International Crime. And it is disingenuous to claim otherwise. Could it be that some Nations who aren't 'IN' with laissez faire capitalism and chummy with America take umbrage and offence at this? Be Democratic or be marginalised is not something every nation wishes to accept. On 12/10/05, Larry C. Lyons <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Why should Israel make a declaration that they have nukes.
