    Apartheid went down without pressing the button. The Zionists will sooner flee.

      Did South Africa have nuclear weapons though?

        It had, one of the reasons the US pulled its support for the appartheit govt was the promise of the anti-appartheit coalition to destroy the nuclear arsenal. Can’t have non-whites with nukes, can we? Even worse, non-whites which are socialists.

        This allowed the west to prevent any development beyond a bourgoise dictatorship as the post appartheit government. Without that shit, SA would most likely be a AES.

    It will depend on what their defeat looks like.

    If it’s a dissolution of the apartheid state and a one-state solution like in SA then by the SA example, perhaps not.

    If it is also a military defeat both with Palestinians and regional states then perhaps so.

    Certainly, there will be elements in Israel that will want to. Given how ghoulish the Israeli military have been, if not as destructive.

    No one here can predict the future, but I honestly find that highly unlikely. Not a single nuclear bomb was thrown in an opposing country since 1945

      It’s a good thing the zionists are cowards. I hope there is a good chance that they would rather choose to go live in Miami and somehow be even more butthurt and deranged than Cuban gusanos than they would die in nuclear hellfire for their “cause”.

        If they began to occupy land from white people in US, I wouldn’t complain 😂

      A big part of the reason no one has used nukes in any of the post-WWII conflicts is sheer dumb luck since the 50s there’s been a real threat of out-of-control escalation, if not complete global annihilation. You think twice about nuking someone if it means you’ll get nuked back.

      If Israel nukes Syria or Iran, who would retaliate in kind? It’s a fundamentally different scenario than the Cold War, or the India-Pakistan situation, etc.

    I think the first question above “will they deploy nukes” is against whom?

    Nuking themselves? Settlers are privileged, they’ll want to go back to that privileged life.

    Nuking neighboring countries? That’s just opening them up to retaliation from other nuclear powers.

    Nuking Palestinian territories? I’m not sure they’ll be able to do that without at least the fallout hitting them back.

    There is this report that Israel tried to nuke Iran but they managed to take out the F35.

      You should mention this is unconfirmed outside of Pepe Escobar saying it. I’m extremely skeptical of taking 1 person citing an anonymous source at face value on something as serious as this.

      Why would Israel use an F-35 as opposed to a cruise missile or IRBM?

      A lone F-35 would have to fly over several hostile countries, with a tiny warhead, and an extremely high chance of being shot down.
