The threshold the Israeli authorities have set for the use of a nuclear weapon is dangerously low.
Israeli strategic thinking has long been shaped by the fear of an existential threat. Unlike most nuclear states, whose doctrines revolve around deterrence or competition with other nuclear powers, Israel’s security narrative is rooted in the belief that the country could face destruction if a war turns decisively against it. Israeli leaders have repeatedly framed regional conflicts — from the wars of 1967 and 1973 to present confrontations with Iran and armed groups in Gaza and Lebanon — as struggles for national survival. That mindset matters enormously when nuclear weapons are involved.
Then you didnt understand a word I typed, no one should have nukes because they doom us all, but because some already do have them any nation/government not trying to get them is doing their people a disservice and putting them at risk. Because it’s apparently the only thing that keeps you from being arbitrarily attacked by governments with them.
But you keep going with your “Israel’s fears are legit” schtick when it’s clear they are using that sympathy to carve out a colonial home for themselves and commit crimes against humanity.
I hope you have the worst day!
Do you think, say, Mongolia is at risk of being arbitrarily attacked? Should the Phillipines hurry up and nuke up?
Both of your examples absolutely should, Mongolia is resource rich and insanely underdeveloped, that will be a target of imperialism in short order if they don’t. The Philippines are more or less under US control already but if they had nukes they sure as shit wouldn’t be. Until no one has nukes the countries with them cannot be trusted to act in good faith any longer. The US, Israel, and Russia have demonstrated that with both Ukraine(who had nukes and then gave them up under the pretense of protection from the largest threat to them with nukes - Russia) and Iran.
Get nukes if you want to keep your people safe is the message of geopolitics over the past 20 years. I dont like it but its the correct strategic position if you are attempting to safeguard a nation. Its fucked up but its the reality of the situation.
Do you think the Iranian regime is something that should be kept safe?
Do you believe the American and Israeli regimes should? I think all three should be destroyed and the world would be a much better place for losing them.
Iran being a theocracy doesn’t make this war just it’s just a flimsy excuse for Israel and the US to control the region. It’s never once been about Israeli security.
I will not respond to you again. I hope your day is as good as a Palestinian child!
A few posts up you were saying everyone should have nukes to protect themselves, now you’re saying you want at least three of them destroyed
It’s commendable that you care for Palestinian children but I don’t think you’ve really thought about how a nuclear armed Iran would help them
