Israeli Nukes This is Israels Dimona nuclear weapons complex where the regimes first atomic bomb is believed to have been developed with Western assistance. Today, Israel is believed to possess up to four hundred nuclear warheads in its atomic arsenal. Thats the third-largest atomic weapons arsenal in the world after the United States and Russia. Israel has defied international calls to sign the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, NPT. US Quits UNHRC Relations between the U.S. and its staunchest ally Israel have dramatically improved since President Donald Trump took charge of the White House in January 2017. Trumps ascension to the Oval Office was followed by the expansion of illegal settlement in the occupied Palestinian territories while Israel intensified its aggression against Palestinians. President Trumps policy of appeasement toward Israel reached its climax last December when he formally recognized Jerusalem al-Quds as Israels capital. And now, the U.S. has quit the UNs human rights body for what Washington says is the councils anti-Israel stance.
