Weapon sales to Saudi Arabia should have ended as soon as we got the passenger lists on 9-11, but I guess the fear is that they will turn off the spigot. * * *

Israel may become a Muslim nuclear power. By the late 1990s the U.S. Intelligence Community estimated that Israel possessed between 75-130 weapons, based on production estimates. The stockpile would certainly include warheads for mobile Jericho-1 and Jericho-2 missiles, as well as bombs for Israeli aircraft, and may include other tactical nuclear weapons of various types. Some published estimates even claimed that Israel might have as many as 400 nuclear weapons by the late 1990s. We believe these numbers are exaggerated, and that Israel's nuclear weapons inventory may include less than 100 nuclear weapons. Stockpiled plutonium could be used to build additional weapons if so decided. fas.org Israeli society gives more opportunity to Arabs than do Arab states to their own citizens. Israeli Arabs and Muslims have the right to vote and to hold public office, like every other Israeli citizen. Nearly one-10th of the Knesset, Israel's parliament, is Arab; there is a mosque in the Knesset building for those who are Muslim. One of the justices of Israel's Supreme Court is an Arab Muslim; so is a minister in the Israeli cabinet. middle-east-info.org By 2020, Jews and their non-Jewish relatives will be about 47% of the total on the whole territory according to a medium projection which assumes a decline of Arab fertility, and by 2050 they might constitute 37%. No Palestinian migrations were considered in these projections. aidrg.com * * *
