Israel’s Samson Option
The report, “Israel's Strategic Future,” says Israel must prevent its enemies from developing weapons of mass destruction through strikes against vital facilities.
The report says Israel has been threatened by a biological or nuclear first-strike that seeks to exploit Israel's small space and high population density.
“To meet its ultimate deterrence objectives—that is, to deter the most overwhelmingly destructive enemy first-strikes—Israel must seek and achieve a visible second-strike capability to target approximately 15 enemy cities."
"Ranges would include cities as distant as those in Libya and Iran. The nuclear bombs would have sufficient yield to obliterate the targeted cities and to fully destroy the aggressor’s viability as a functioning state."
"All enemy targets should be selected with the view that their destruction would promptly force the enemy to cease all nuclear/biological/chemical exchanges with Israel.”
While Tehran insists the facility is purely for research, the decision heightens concern about Iran's ability to produce nuclear aims.
Experts estimate the 40-megawatt reactor could produce enough plutonium for a nuclear weapon each year.
This Israeli report is a refinement of the “Samson Option” of which I have spoken before. That is, if Israel’s enemies overwhelm Israel’s defenses or launch WND strikes designed to exterminate the Jewish State, they will bring down the Muslim Middle East with them.
Iran recently warned that they would strike Israel with nuclear weapons if it attacked their “peaceful” nuclear plants. This is a tacit admission that they already have some nuclear weapons.
Ironically, I first heard of the “Samson Option” from the lips of Ariel Sharon himself. I asked him in the halls of the Parliament if they still had the “Masada Complex.”
He replied, “No! We now choose the “Samson Option.” When Samson died, he took all of his enemies down with him. So I understood immediately the implications of what he was saying.
It is commonly understood that Israel has both thermo-nuclear and neutron bombs with the missiles to deliver them. And it is probable that if faced with annihilation, they would not only obliterate the largest Muslim cities, but would also turn Mecca and Medina into crystallized glass in the sand.
With such firepower now coming into the hands of erratic Muslim Fundamentalists, we are very near the Armageddon scenario.
Even so, Come Lord Jesus.
