Quote from IShopAtPublix:
Simple: US is an imperial power that covets world domination and does not want anyone to be able to say fuck you to its military.
If a country acquires nuclear weapons, it can effectively tell USA conventional military (that US spends 500+ billion/yr on) to go fuck itself. US does not like that and resends nuclear proliferation mightily.
Then why do you allow Israel, the number 1 destabilizing factor in the Middle East, to tell you to F$% off in every opportunity your interest contradict theirs?
Israel right now is beyond the US's reach and it has the might to tell the US to F$% off.
