UK secretly helped Israel get nuclear bombs

Check out the article here:

It is very interesting that the British Govt. saw fit to cut The US out of the loop on this one.

I think this is yet more evidence of the fundamental reason why we are victims of terrorism in the west. Our ceaseless help for Isreal and total disregard for, and hostility towards, Arabs and Muslims has been going on for decades.

Wow I can't believe BBC did a story on this, given current events; although I applaud them for it. The West's unfliinching support of Israel is ridiculous. In my opinion being the largest receipient of US Foreign Aid; Israel would be bankrupt at best; kind of difficult to fund a world class military in that situation. I agree with the right of a Jewish homeland to exist, just not the policies of the Sharon administration.

WOW! I never new about that! Why would they want to do that? They put their own citizens in danger! What a stupid decision! Who was the p-m that year?

That'd be Harold MacMillan.

Keep the situation in context. 1958 was a much different world arena than today.
