A former officer of Israel's
intelligence agency, Victor Ostrovsky (The Other Side of Deception)
has
written the following about this:
It was Uri who enlightened me regarding the Nes Zionna [Tsiona]
facility. It was, he said, an ABC warfare laboratory -- ABC standing
for
atomic, biological and chemical. It was where our top epidemiological
scientists were developing various doomsday machines. Because we were
so
vulnerable and would not have a second chance should there be an all-
out
war in which this type of weapon would be needed, there was no room
for
error. The [captured] Palestinian infiltrators came in handy in this
regard. As human guinea pigs, they could make sure the weapons the
scientists were developing worked properly and could verify how fast
they worked and make them even more efficient.
This revelation about the State of Israel by a former Israeli
intelligence agent matches the most harrowing rumors and innuendoes
about Iraq, but you won't see any dramatized reporting about Israel's
nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons of mass destruction.
The State of Israel is really known in the Middle East as a lawless
state that bullies its neighbors. During the Iran-Iraq War, Israel
invaded and occupied southern Lebanon. They stayed there for two
decades. None of the many U.N. resolutions ignored by the State of
Israel has ever provoked even a consideration of a U.S. expeditionary
force to enforce it.
When a pattern of lawlessness like that is allowed to go on, it is
unreasonable then to turn around and selectively enforce a law
against
somebody else who maybe isn't as influential as the big, habitual
lawbreaker.
Ambassador Richard Butler, the former head of UNSCOM (United Nations
Special Commission), has frequently said that Saddam Hussein is
"addicted to weapons of mass-destruction." This shows a failure on
Butler's part to appreciate the effect of the State of Israel in that
region. When you have a neighbor like Israel, you had better be
armed.
Especially since Iraq had emerged from its war with Iran as a
regional
superpower, a lot of apprehension that Israel might attack had been
expressed by the Iraqis (e.g. "if the United States does not attack
us
now, sooner or later Israel will," said Tariq Aziz. [New York Times
Dec
30, 1990, 10-L col. 3])
Saddam Hussein declared in early 1990, "We do not need an atomic
bomb.
We have the dual chemical. Whoever threatens us with the atomic bomb,
we
will annihilate him with the dual chemical." The only present nuclear
threat that Saddam Hussein could have had in mind, of course, was the
State of Israel, which has made an open secret of its nuclear
arsenal.
This is why George Bush had made a fuss about chemical weapons in
1988,
because it was a means whereby Iraq could check the military
arrogance
of Israel. Recalling Israel's unjustified bombing of Iraq in 1981,
Saddam Hussein declared, "I swear to God we will let our fire eat
half
of Israel if it tries to wage anything against Iraq." Time magazine
stated, "Saddam's outburst set off alarms in Jerusalem, " and Time
further noted, "Suddenly, Israel's long-presumed nuclear capability,
still a monopoly despite Saddam's best efforts, does not seem to be
an
effective deterrent." Saddam Hussein's presentation of chemical
warheads
as a counterpoise to Israel's nuclear arsenal was endorsed by Egypt,
Jordan, and North Yemen. ["Stumbling toward Armageddon", Time, Apr 6,
1990]
