(30,109 posts)Israel has had them since the 1960's. Israel's neighbors are not afraid of Israel using those nukes against them. However, they are scared shitless by Iran having nuclear capabilities.
Israel has every reason to fear Iran having nuclear capability. Iran is already in a war vs. Israel and and has threatened Israel's existence many times. Now I know this is something you must gloss over in order to portray Israel in the manner intended by Grass (who also leaves the context out). What's antisemitic about Glass is not only his Nazi background, but turning the narrative on its head by making Israel out to be the aggressor when it's Iran beating the drums of war. Just a clever way of turning history inside out in order to attack Jews and leave them defenseless.
