The major nuclear danger facing the Middle East originates not from Iran but from Israel, Professor Theodore Postol, a former Science and Policy Adviser on Strategic Nuclear Issues to the Chief of Naval Operations, has told RT.
The expert warned that the leadership in West Jerusalem had placed the Jewish state on an increasingly perilous course.
Israel is widely believed to possess an undeclared nuclear arsenal, although authorities in West Jerusalem have consistently refused to either confirm or deny the allegations.
The issue of Iran’s nuclear program has served as the justification for launching strikes against Iran earlier this year.
Postol noted that Israel’s leadership pushed the country into a situation where even its own military commanders are warning that their forces are “on the ropes” and have reached the limits of what they can do.
Citing reports, the former strategic adviser to Pentagon said that Israeli military leaders have told PM Benjamin Netanyahu that they cannot do any more, adding that the country is suffering heavy troop losses.
Postol said he found Trump’s apparent fear of nuclear weapons somewhat reassuring, describing it as a positive trait.
The expert said that Trump is extremely horrified and afraid of nuclear weapons, which is good, adding that he believes the head of state would be warned that any decision to use such capabilities would open a box that none of us want to see opened.
