Israeli Nukes and Uranium

Getting uranium is not necessarily that easy. Australia has about a third of the world's reserves. Russia, Canada and Nigeria have more. Nigerian output is controlled by the French. One would need tons of the ore to get useful amounts of uranium. But trading is a very Jewish thing. So is breaking the rules

Acquiring nukes meant getting  the technology and the raw materials. Getting the uranium was done by Mossad [ motto: By treachery shalt thou make war ] using their standard techniques. They stole it. Getting the technology was done by thieving too. There were a lot of Jews on the Manhattan Project including Oppenheimer. Most of the spies were Jews.

The operation to get their first two hundred tons of uranium oxide was called PLUMBAT and involved conning a German businessman called Herbert Schulzen of decent background who felt a sense of guilt regarding German extermination operations. His firm was called Asmara Chemie and he used it buy the uranium in order to make soap. Was someone playing it for laughs? Perhaps but the mining outfit and the International Atomic Energy Agency swallowed it. It was to be picked up in Antwerp and shipped to Milan. The ship was an old rust bucket owned by Mossad through cut outs which eventually got it to Israel and Dimona. When the ship didn't arrive in Milan there was a major upset and the IAEA moved the goal posts to make sure that it didn't happen again. Has that stopped them? I doubt it. For a retelling of the story see Espionage: The Greatest Spy Operations of the Twentieth Century by Ernest Volkman.

Later Mordechai Vanunu decided to tell the world about their nuclear works at Dimona so they kidnapped him and put him in solitary for a couple of decades.
