A new report has shed light on Israel’s nuclear capabilities even as it maintains a policy of ambiguity.
According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), Israel has begun upgrading facilities at its Dimona nuclear site. The Jewish State allegedly holds as many as 90 active nuclear warheads, with 30 ready for aircraft delivery and the rest to boost its ballistic missile arsenal.

Israel’s diesel submarine fleet could also soon be transformed into an undersea nuclear triad.
Israel’s alleged move should come as no surprise given that eight nuclear-armed states have recently prioritized modernizing their nuclear forces. In the US and Russia, the largest nuclear powers, there has been emphasis on not just upgrading warhead numbers but also tactical systems like cruise missiles.
Analysts argue that Israel’s suspected nuclear advancements illuminate the catastrophic failure of the Biden administration’s strategy of appeasing Iran’s apocalyptic regime. By obsessively clinging to his former boss’s failed 2015 JCPOA nuclear deal, the White House has boxed itself into empowering the very threat it claims to be containing.
According to the International Atomic Energy Agency, Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium has ballooned to over 30 times the agreed-upon limit in the deeply flawed nuclear deal. As of mid-May, Iran possessed 142.1 kilograms of uranium enriched up to 60% purity. If Iran were to further enrich its existing nuclear material, it would be sufficient to produce two nuclear weapons.
Israel and the Jewish people need to realize that we are by ourselves. We can not count on the USA while sleepy Joe is the president (at least officially)
Am Israel Chai!
He’s not sleepy. He was feeding Egypt arms to feed to Hamas. Catastrophic is the right word.
Americans made a big mistake in 2020. Let’s hope they can correct their error this time or else they will risk fallen from being the No 1 in the world amidst many competitors. We pray it didn’t happen because it will be really catastrophic for the entire world.
