How Israel Became a Nuclear Power / Emma Claire Foley

Nuclear research center stamp

I think that there's an element of intimidation [in the Middle East] that's undeniable. If you have one country with nuclear weapons in that region, other countries are going to think about getting nuclear weapons because they see that rightly as a threat. The existence of nuclear weapons is inherently threatening.
