The head of the UN’s nuclear watchdog, Mohamed ElBaradei, has called for Israel to start discussions on disarming their suspected nuclear arsenal.
Israel has a policy of “strategic ambiguity” - neither admitting nor denying it has nuclear weapons - but analysts believe it has more than 100 nuclear weapons.
Its Arab neighbours have frequently accused the international community of double standards for requiring them to be free of nuclear weapons while doing little, in their eyes, about Israel.
Yeah see, there’s a reason for this: Isreal’s foreign policy isn’t “Driving your state into the sea”. They’re entirely right to call for peace first.
