We possess several hundred atomic warheads and rockets and can launch them at targets in all directions, perhaps even at Rome. Most European capitals are targets for our air force. Let me quote General Moshe Dayan: 'Israel must be like a mad dog, too dangerous to bother.' I consider it all hopeless at this point. We shall have to try to prevent things from coming to that, if at all possible. Our armed forces, however, are not the thirtieth strongest in the world, but rather the second or third. We have the capability to take the world down with us. And I can assure you that that will happen before Israel goes under.
According to an official report which was submitted to the American congress in 2004, it may be that with a payload of 1,000 kg the Jericho III gives Israel nuclear strike capabilities within the entire Middle East, Africa, Europe, Asia and almost all parts of North America, as well as within large parts of South America and North Oceania.
¥I wonder the same thing.Probably Russia/China.Maybe N.Korea,Venuzuela(iran allies).

Ehhhm. Well, i am an Israeli. I totally agree that nukes are a must in order to insure existence of Israel, but what the hell is the reason to get transcontinental delivery systems????
I seriously do not get it. Better delivery systems - yes. Better depots - yes. Higher payload - well, maybe. Range??? Why? What existential threat is there on other continents? Polar bears?

Im getting sick to the stomach reading this crap. Hypocrisy in its highest form. These people are the true definition of terrorists. And the saddest thing about this, is that people in general dont raise there eyebrows when reading about stuff like this. The American and Israeli propaganda is deep attached in peoples mind, thanks to the jew media that has infested a large part of the world. People should be more concerned of these zionist pigs than Ahmednidjad and "al-qaida".
Hate to say this, but mankind is doomed to fail.

Who ever said higher payloads like most of the nuclear powers they likely are going for smaller payloads that are very accurate.
Even 20 years ago most nuclear weapons only could hit within 100s of feet of the target.
now they can hit within 20 feet of there target.
This means that they don't have to be high yield to destroy the target.
This also means that you could take apart 1 high yield weapon and from the nuclear pit make 2 or more low yield weapons.
Add to that we don't even know if Israel has hydrogen weapons then they may be able to take there old 1 high yield weapon and turn in into 5 or 6 low yield hydrogen weapons that can hit a target with high precision.
The US has 1/2 kt weapons that work and 1/2 kt weapon is big enough to ignite a hydrogen secondary giving a dialable yield weapon of from 5 kt to 150 kt

Hmmm, Jew media? Zionist Pigs? Just say it you hate Jews!
Now, let me ask you this, why is no one making a big deal of the UK upgrading their nuclear weapons? Why is no one making a bid deal about the US upgrading theirs (constantly)? These two countries are involved in more wars that Israel and have caused more misery worldwide than Israel, and that's coming from someone who is a proud Brit!
The US is the ONLY country I know who has used nuclear weapons to my knowledge, despite much provocation Israel has never used a nuclear device! They have nuclear weapons and it is only sensible to upgrade them rather than let them fall into a state of disrepair, where they become dangerous similar to what has happened in old Soviet states.
I dream of a world where NO ONE has these terrible weapons, but with or without them I prefer a world where we all live in peace and harmony. We can only hope and pray.

Israel is working on improving its nuclear weapons capabilities, according to a report by the independent Trident commission in the United Kingdom that was published in the Guardian newspaper on Monday.
According to the report in the Guardian, Israel is extending the range of its Jericho 3 land-to-land missiles so they will have the capabilities of transcontinental missiles.
According to the report in the Guardian, the world's nuclear states are planning to spend more than $800 billion in the coming years to modernize and upgrade their nuclear arsenals. The United States itself will sp

Can Israel afford that?!!
