The full article can be found here: [ link to www.unintimidatedpress.com] The strange relationship between the United States and Israel constitutes American foreign policy at its stupidest. I'm afraid we picked the wrong side to throw in with here, people. I mean, out of all the sides to choose from we pick the tiniest, most-hated, most out numbered - perhaps as much as 30 to 1, or even greater - and most surrounded. How wise was that?
When you consider the evolution of modern weaponry and its availability, it's doubtful whether all the money in the U.S. treasury would be enough to protect Israel's security against those odds. On the surface it would appear to be futile.
Not only that, in the process of trying, the United States might have inadvertently created a potentially very dangerous situation down the road. For instance, the U.S. government has a policy to insure that Israel has the military might that it needs to defeat any combination of its neighbors. The problem with that policy is when you do that you create a monster. And indeed, the United States and some of its western partners have armed Israel to the teeth.
How much so? Let's put it this way: We better hope that Israel never gets mad at us.
There's significant reason to believe that Israel has armed its submarines with nuclear-armed cruise missiles Now, the lowest estimate that I've seen for the number of weapons in its nuclear arsenal is 200 - a figure that I consider to be conservative.That's enough destructive power to literally level the United States. Theoretically, Israel could park its submarines off our shores and just lob away.
Did someone say American foreign policy at its stupidest?Wouldn't it be great to heal the world, with only a song? |
