#politics #hypothesis
I don't think Israel has nuclear weapons. Strategic nuclear weapons are a deterrant, but they are never useful in actual use (you would be retaliated against with nukes too). So I think they want the deterrance value without the cost.
In order to make sure Iran believes Israel could nuke them, they arranged a fake US intelligence leak confirming that Israel has nukes. But that leak is clearly fake because the white house and Israel both confirmed it and the news media ran with it... if it was a true leak they would have denied it and covered it up.
I haven't heard this theory out there anywhere, so I'm putting it out there.
