Israel can commit nuclear holocaust
Israeli nuclear weapons have raised the prospects for a ”nuclear holocaust” committed by Israel against the people of countries in the region, an analyst tells.
Israel’s nuclear weapons threaten European cities as well as all regional countries that fall within range of Tel Aviv’s missiles, Ralph Schoenman, the author of The Hidden History of Zionism said in an interview with Press TV on Sunday.
"The [Israel’s] nuclear capacity is designed to terrorize the regional populations and the governments of the countries with the prospect of a preemptive nuclear strike by Israel," Schoenman added.
He made the remarks after the European Organization for Nuclear Research, also known as CERN, announced on Friday that it has admitted Israel as an associate member and its first non-European affiliate.
"In this regard, they are supported and clandestinely facilitated by the US military and now the European CERN is only adding a patina of legitimacy to the facts on the ground," Schoenman said.
"The facts on the ground are that the Israeli monopoly of nuclear capacity in the region is a threat to the survival of the peoples of the world because it represents the prospect of a nuclear holocaust initiated by the Israelis against the peoples of the region with all of the deathly consequences that represents," he added.
"Israeli academics and officials associated with the Mossad have spoken often about Israel’s capacity to take nuclear action against European cities as a deterrent or as a threat against Europe’s support of the aspirations of the Palestinian people or of any of the aspirations of the regional peoples of the world to throw off the chains of imperialism and subjugation," Schoenman said.
Israel, which reportedly houses an arsenal of some 200 nuclear warheads, is widely believed to be the only entity in the Middle East that posseses nuclear weapons.
