Four presidents conspired to give $100 billion to Israel

According to former US secretary of state Colin Powell’s leaked emails from March 2015, the usurper regime of Israel has at least 200 nuclear weapons. The revelation came in Powell’s email to business partner and democratic donor Jeffrey Leeds, where he discussed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s warnings about a nuclear deal with Iran.

The historic deal, which puts limitations on Iran’s peaceful nuclear program in exchange for removing nuclear-related bans against the Islamic Republic, was finalized between Tehran and the P5+1 group of nations—the US, Britain, France, Russia, China and Germany-- earlier this year. “Negotiators can’t get what he wants,” Powell wrote this of the marathon talks that preceded the final deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Colin Powell dismissed Netanyahu’s concern that Iran was only a year away from making a nuclear bomb, implying that the large nuclear arsenal Washington and Tel Aviv had amassed over the years would serve as a deterrent to that. The four-star general said “Israel has 200 [nuclear weapons] and we have thousands.”
The New Yorker staff writer Adam Entous revealed on June 18 that four sitting U.S. presidents beginning with Bill Clinton signed secret letters agreeing never to publicly discuss Israel’s undeclared nuclear arsenal. According to Entous, President Trump’s aides felt "blindsided" by Israeli ambassador Ron Dermer’s urgent demand to sign a fourth letter. Only a small number of "senior American officials" in the previous three administrations even knew about the existence of such letters. Though said not to specifically mention Israel’s arsenal, Israeli leaders interpret the letters as binding American pledges not to publicly mention Israel’s nuclear weapons or press Israel to sign the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). The letters add to growing evidence of a longstanding multifaceted executive and federal agency conspiracy to violate the US Arms Export Control Act on Israel’s behalf.

The child killer Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu – who has FBI-documented personal connections to Israel’s nuclear weapons program smuggling operations – was particularly concerned about newly-elected president Barack Obama. On February 9, 2009, veteran White House reporter Helen Thomas asked if Obama knew "of any country in the Middle East that has nuclear weapons." Obama dodged answering the question before finally replying that he didn’t "want to speculate." Speaking in Prague in April, 2009 Obama called for strengthening the NPT. However, according to Entous, by May 2009, Obama yielded to Israeli pressure and signed an updated version of the secret Israeli gag letter. On September 6, 2012 Obama’s Department of Energy, in consultation with the Department of State, issued a secret directive called "Guidance on Release of Information Relating to the Potential for an Israeli Nuclear Capability," or WNP-136 making it a crime for any US government employee or contractor to publicly communicate any information – even from the public domain – about Israel’s nuclear weapons program.

The Israelis, empowered by their $6.3 billion per year US affinity network, are ever eager to curtail informed public discussion and policymaking about Israel’s nuclear weapons stockpile. Entous notes that the criminal regime of Israel already had three nuclear devices by 1967 but does not examine how a country with no infrastructure to produce highly-enriched uranium managed to assemble such weapons. According to CIA and FBI files, Israel colluded with Pennsylvania nuclear processing plant administrators, two connected to Israeli intelligence and three with strong connections to the Zionist Organization of America, to divert enough US government-owned highly-enriched uranium to build several devices in the 1960s. The pillage of NUMEC, a privately-held thinly capitalized Atomic Energy Agency contractor, left behind a toxic mess and hundreds of poisoned, uncompensated victims.

More important than avoiding public knowledge about how Israel built its nuclear program, the usurper, illegal regime of Israel and its lobby wish to preempt overdue enforcement of the 1976 Symington and Glenn Amendments to the Foreign Assistance Act now embedded in the US Arms Export Control Act. US presidents, upon learning that a non-NPT member is trafficking in nuclear weapons technology and testing nuclear weapons, are supposed to publicly notify Congress and cut off US foreign aid to said regime.

Israel has not signed the NPT and also continually smuggles nuclear weapons-making technology from the US. The President can comply with the US Arms Export Control Act by publicly justifying to Congress why continuing foreign aid to non-NPT signatory proliferators serves the US national interest. No president has ever complied with any of provisions of the AECA regarding Israel, including waivers.

In May of 2018, the US District Court of Appeals of DC upheld a lower court’s ruling that US citizens have no standing to sue the president and executive agencies complicit in failing to enforce the US Arms Export Control Act over the many administrations inflict by improperly withholding information sought through the Freedom of Information Act about Israel’s nuclear weapons program and US policy. In a brief, the US Department of Justice argued that the President has sole authority whether or not to recognize Israel’s nuclear weapons program as fact, stating "The legislative history of the US Arms Export Control Act statute, moreover, makes clear that Congress intended that ‘the determinations under this section. . . be made by the President…the president’s decision whether or not to make a determination…is the epitome of a discretionary judgment…’"

Most Americans believe Israel has nuclear weapons and that Congress should factor Israel’s nuclear arsenal into congressional discussions about US foreign aid given to Israel to allegedly maintain its "qualitative military edge." In polls, Americans consistently say the US gives too much aid to Israel. Excluding clandestine US aid funneled through black budgets, US presidents and Congress have given an inflation-adjusted sum of $222.8 billion to Israel since the Symington & Glenn Amendments became law in 1976. Since Bill Clinton became the first known US president to sign a secret letter to Israel, inflation-adjusted aid to Israel has grown to $99.9 billion.

By the way, just recently, Iran's foreign minister has decried Israel’s nukes as a real threat to the Middle East region and the rest of the world, calling for a new focus on the occupying regime’s nuclear arsenal. In a new post on his official Twitter account, Mohammad Javad Zarif said although Iran had no nuclear weapons, Israel, which is the sole Middle Eastern regime to possess such weapons, continued to “howl” about “fabricated” Iranian “ambitions.” The top Iranian diplomat said, “There are at least 80 nuclear warheads stationed in the Middle East. None are in Iran; rather, they're at the fingertips of a warmonger who howls incessantly about fabricated Iranian ‘ambitions’”. Zarif also urged the world to start paying more attention to Israel’s nukes by starting “an overdue debate on the real threat to the region and beyond.”

The UK-planted, US-backed Zionist entity is estimated to have 200 to 400 nuclear warheads in its arsenal. The regime, however, refuses to either accept or deny having the weapons. It has also evaded signing the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) amid staunch endeavor by the United States and other Western states on international levels in favor of its non-commitment to the accord.

Meantime, Iranian Ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Reza Najafi in September 2017 denounced the West’s double standard approaches on the possession and development of atomic technology, urging a complete end to any nuclear cooperation with the Israeli regime. Addressing a quarterly meeting of the IAEA’s 35-member Board of Governors in Vienna, Najafi warned that the Israeli regime’s nuclear program is negatively impacting security of the Middle East.

Elsewhere, a prominent commentator says the United States follows double standards regarding the possession of nuclear weapons, allowing the Israeli regime to maintain such armaments while opposing the possession of nukes by other countries. Mark Weber, the director of the Institute for Historical Review, said: “In this case, North Korea’s nuclear weapons are bad, Israel’s nuclear weapons are good and that’s because for years the United States’ government has been carrying out a hypocritical policy of trying to keep other countries from developing nuclear weapons while at the same time not only maintaining the world’s largest nuclear weapons arsenal itself but also supporting Israel’s illicit and illegal nuclear weapons program.”

The Israeli regime is believed to have between 200-400 nuclear warheads but is not a signatory to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and does not allow international inspections of its nuclear facilities.

Smith who is the director of the Institute for Research: Middle Eastern Policy in Washington and the author of the book, “Big Israel: How Israel’s Lobby moves America”. The article was coupled with some ground realities and the latest news on Israel’s dangerous nuclear arsenal.
