“Israel could “bring down the pillars of the world (attack Moscow and European capitals for instance)” as well as the “holy places of Islam.” and that the “abandonment of proportionality is the essence” of the Samson Option.” - Ron Rosenbaum

”For the first time in history, a people facing extermination while the world either cackles or looks away—have the power to destroy the world. The ultimate justice?” - David Perlmutter

In the 1973 Yom Kippur War, Arab forces were overwhelming Israeli forces and Prime Minister Golda Meir authorized a nuclear alert and ordered 13 atomic bombs be readied for use by missiles and aircraft. The Israeli Ambassador informed President Richard Nixon that “very serious conclusions” may occur if the United States did not airlift supplies. Nixon complied. This is seen by some commentators on the subject as the first threat of the use of the Samson Option.

Here is a map showing countries that are within Israel’s nuclear targeting range:

    Every other nuclear power does not have a literal plan to nuke their allies. Stop acting like a Zionist.

        We are also critical of the US for these things, though, so it’s crazy to act as if we aren’t consistent.

        “Whatabout-” yes they are bad too, now stop pretending that you aren’t defending a genocidal state and intentionally conflating criticism of the state with criticisms of all Jews. (Not saying you, but the other guy)

      I’m not so sure about that now that I consider it. Military loves contingencies. If USA were to get invaded by Russia or China and somehow was losing and no one helped us for some reason, wouldn’t we threaten Europe or Canada etc? I can see crazy contingency plans being drawn up for dire circumstances
