Wrong paste! Samson Option! OMFG!!!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samson_OptionNuclear ambiguityIsrael refuses to confirm or deny it has nuclear weapons or to describe how it would use them, an official policy of nuclear ambiguity, also known as "nuclear opacity." This has made it difficult for anyone outside the Israeli government to describe the country's true nuclear policy definitively, while still allowing Israel to influence the perceptions, strategies and actions of other governments.[5][6] Israel had nuclear weapons,[7] and two years later, in 2008, former US president Jimmy Carter stated the number of nuclear weapons held by Israel to be "150 or more".[8]In his 2008 book The Culture of War, Martin van Creveld, a professor of military history at Israel's Hebrew University, wrote that since Gates admitted that Israel had nuclear weapons, any talk of Israel's nuclear weapons in Israel can lead to "arrest, trial, and imprisonment." Thus Israeli commentators talk in euphemisms such as "doomsday weapons" and the Samson Option.[9]Nevertheless, as early as 1976, the CIA believed that Israel possessed 10 to 20 nuclear weapons.[10] By 2002, it was estimated that the number had increased to between 75 and 200 thermonuclear weapons, each in the multiple-megaton range.[11] Kenneth S. Brower has estimated as many as 400 nuclear weapons.[12] These can be launched from land, sea and air.[13] This gives Israel a second strike option even if much of the country is destroyed.[14]In 1991, American investigative journalist and Pulitzer Prize winning political writer Seymour Hersh authored the book Samson Option: Israel's Nuclear Arsenal & American Foreign Policy.[15] "Deterrence doctrine IZRAHELL would blow all of Europe off of the map is what the plan is!!!!!! To destroy all the GOYIM SCUM!
