Here's another one on it!

As Hersh has documented??and Israeli historian Avner Cohen has confirmed it in even more detail in his own book, Israel and the Bomb??Israel??s entire national defense policy (from its inception) was framed around the development of powerful nuclear bombs. As Hersh makes clear, the Israelis are willing, if necessary, to ??blow up the world???including themselves??if they have to do so in order to defeat their Arab foes.

The so-called ??Samson Option? for Israel is based on the well-known story of Samson in the Bible, who??after being captured by the Philistines??brought down Dagon??s temple in Gaza and killed himself along with a number of Philistines. As Hersh put it: ??For Israel??s nuclear advocates, the Samson Option became another way of saying ??Never Again??.?
