Admitted: US helped Israel build the Bomb
21st Century Wire says…
An official government document revealing the true extent of this ‘special relationship’ is now available for the world to see.
It surely would not have been possible for the Israelis to acquire the H-Bomb without American help, and now we know for sure that the Americans did indeed help; allegedly ‘skirting’ around international standards on the issue.
The 386 page report, released as the American government ceded to a lawsuit, says that Israeli nuclear facilities are strikingly similar to those found in Los Alamos and Oak Ridge National Laboratories in the United States.
We hear that the “Symington Amendment to the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 prohibits most U.S. foreign aid to any country found trafficking in nuclear enrichment equipment or technology outside international safeguards”.
So now we have to ask, when will the prosecutions begin for this international WMD scandal?

The 386-page report, “Critical Technology Assessment in Israel and NATO Nations,” likens top Israeli nuclear facilities to the Los Alamos and Oak Ridge National Laboratories that were key in the development of US nuclear weaponry.
Israelis are “developing the kind of codes which will enable them to make hydrogen bombs. That is, codes which detail fission and fusion processes on a microscopic and macroscopic level,” said the report, the release of which comes before Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s March 3 speech in front of the US Congress in which he will oppose any deal that allows Iran’s legal nuclear program to persist.
“I am struck by the degree of cooperation on specialized war making devices between Israel and the US,” Roger Mattson, a formerly of the Atomic Energy Commission’s technical staff, said of the report, according to Courthouse News.
The report’s release earlier this week was initiated by a Freedom of Information Act request made three years ago by Grant Smith, director of the Washington think tank Institute for Research: Middle Eastern Policy. Smith filed a lawsuit in September in order to compel the Pentagon to substantially address the request.
