It is unclear whether the U.S. assistant secretary of state’s call to Israel to sign on to the nuclear Non-Proliferation
Treaty indicates a change in Washington’s policy toward Israel’s
nuclear program, or even if the move was anticipated by the White
House.
It is clear, however, that where there’s smoke, there’s fire. The
U.S. has been protecting Israel for years, creating a diplomatic
umbrella and pushing away any attempt, in any international debate, to discuss the nuclear weapons the entire world believes Israel possesses.
