I remember reading this somewhere years ago. The idea is that Israel will nuke Paris, Berlin, London, etc, in the event that the west cuts off their support and allows it to be defeated by an enemy force.

Is this just a dumbass conspiracy theory, or is there something to it?

I guess I'm not disputing the underlying premise that Israel got nuke technology through dubious means. I'd just say the idea of them "stealing" it seems... unnecessary? Why steal what your friend will give away? Maybe the stealing illusion is part of the US keeping on the good side of treaties.

I think you’ve nailed it—I don’t personally know, but i think it’s a well let you “steal” it so you can get them but we won’t be culpable kinda thing.

Because everyone involved wants "stealing" to be the explanation? It's one of those geopolitical things where it's obvious lies wrapped in obvious lies but it doesn't matter that everyone knows that so long as no one who matters admits it formally. Like the US blowing up that pipeline: yes, it's abundantly obvious that they were the only ones with the means, motive, and opportunity to do it and every other possibility is absurd, but it doesn't matter as long as no one admits it because the issue fundamentally cannot be pressed further.

I completely forgot about that fucking pipeline... there's too much shit... what a wild thing to just be able to openly do and it's been basically forgotten
