Carter: Israel Has 150 or More Nukes
Source: the Real News
Former US President Jimmy Carter has again come under fire in the US mainstream media, since publicly saying that Israel has 150 or more nuclear weapons in its arsenal.
Details about Israel’s nuclear weapons programme started emerging in 1986.
International nuclear experts now believe that Israel maintains a cache of between 100 and 300 nuclear weapons, though Israel, backed by the US, maintains a policy of nuclear ambiguity.
The Real News Network’s Senior News Analyst Aijaz Ahmad looks at the story behind the spin.
