Funny that they have no plans to talk about Israel's nuclear weapon stockpile, or about their arming their nuclear subs with these nuclear weapons, or to encourage them to join the NPT.

And even if they did discuss these topics, Goldman, would you really expect some sort of outcome to your liking? I think not.

I think it would be kind of funny if she did. Everyone cheering on Iran's nukes would suddenly have to throw their support behind Israel....heh. Why can Russia have nukes and not Israel? I can imagine the comments you'd be forced to make...

No, I just find interesting that everyone is ignoring the elephant in the room.

Ciao, why should they? First, Israel has not declared themselves a nuclear state. Second, they have not ever threaten any other country with destroying them. Third, Israel has made peace and given land for that peace to former enemies. Israel's history shows it acting like a country that is willing to work for peace.

Ciao, the elephant in that room is Hamas and Hezbollah.

That is the most...lets see... "unusual" excuse to not discuss Israel's undeclared nuclear weapons program.

You don't actually expect anyone to believe that, do you?

Ummm, Ciao, as you just wrote, it is not declared. It is not confirmed. It is also not a threat to anyone.

Gee, how many times have you written this? Are your fingers tired? Israel has in fact made peace and given back land in exchange for peace. Israel did not start this, Iran did. Facts are facts.

So just because Israel has not declared it has nuclear weapons (which everyone in the world knows it has) then its not true according to you. Well Iran hasnt declared it has nukes so that must not be true either Ben. And as for Israel not being a threat to anyone LOL, thats a good one. Maybe you can tell that to the people it killed on the flotilla delivering aid, to the French who they stole naval vessels off years ago, off their neighbors who they "pre empitively" attack. Yes Israel the shining example of a peaceful nation....

Gee, how many times have you written this? Are your fingers tired? Israel has in fact made peace and given back land in exchange for peace. Israel did not start this, Iran did. Facts are facts.

LOL comment of the day. They have give little bits of land back while holding on to others and building settlements that fly in the face of previous agreements and treaties. Hardly the sign of a peaceful nation. And why does such a peaceful nation need nukes, and nuke armed subs?

Cletus,

So just because Israel has not declared it has nuclear weapons (which everyone in the world knows it has) then its not true according to you.

Ummm, I merely wrote something factual. Israel is not a declared nuclear power. Do you have some information about them declaring they are a nuclear power? They are also not a threat to another country's existence.

They have give little bits of land back

? They gave back the Sinai penninsula, a huge piece of property. They pulled out of Gaza. The Palestinians were dancing in the streets of Gaza after the pull-out. For the first time in decades, Gazans could travel legally across the border to Egypt freely. You do not think these were good things? You do not think these were peaceful acts?

And why does such a peaceful nation need nukes, and nuke armed subs?

Exactly, why does Iran need those things? Ahh, yes. For the destruction of the country they have threatened and support groups whose goal it is to destroy.
