| Don't think SA has nuclear weapons. In the region it's alleged that Iran, Syria and Israel have nukes, but I don't think any of them are "official". I guess the closest declared weapons would be in India and Pakistan?

Posted via VolNation Mobile | I have little doubt that Israel is in possession of a nuke or three with American made technology.

| I didn't think Syria had the nuke, but I could be wrong. But would seem that if they had it, they would have been used on Israel before now. If they did get the nukes, who gave it to them? Russia? Turkey?

Posted via VolNation Mobile | My guess would be Russia (if they do have one) Turkey is a possibility.
As for the reason they would not use against Israel, they know the response would be swift from the US. I am sure other nations in the region would also urge them not to ensure the destruction of large parts of the area as well.

| Yeah, the CIA stated that Israel had nukes in 1974.
The scariest proposition is the DPRK with nukes. | |
