Should we bomb ourselves?
Google was asked a question:-"which countries supplied israel with nuclear material""AI OverviewSeveral countries are known to have supplied Israel with materials or expertise that contributed to its nuclear weapons program. These include France, which provided a reactor and assistance in building a reprocessing plant, and the UK, which secretly supplied heavy water. Additionally, there is evidence suggesting the US also played a role, potentially through the illegal transfer of enriched uranium. Here's a more detailed breakdown:France:France was a key partner in the early stages of Israel's nuclear program, providing a reactor and training for Israeli scientists and engineers. There was even a secret agreement to cooperate on nuclear weapons, though this was later scrapped under U.S. pressure. United Kingdom:Britain secretly sold Israel 20 tons of heavy water, which is crucial for producing plutonium for nuclear weapons. This deal was concealed from the US. United States:While the US officially opposed nuclear proliferation, evidence suggests some US-made materials may have been acquired by Israel, potentially through a company called NUMEC, which handled nuclear materials. There are also reports of uranium being stolen from the US. Other countries:While not directly supplying materials, some countries, like Norway, were involved in facilitating the transfer of heavy water from the UK to Israel.AI responses may include mistakes."---------------------------"Hans, are we the baddies?"
