90149: Pakistan Aid Cutoff: U.S. Nonproliferation and Foreign Policy Considerations
http://www.fas.org/spp/starwars/crs/90-149.htm
The basic nonproliferation provision affecting Pakistan is Section 101 of the Arms Export Control Act (an expanded version of what was formerly Section 669 of the FAA). This provision forbids aid to countries that acquire nuclear enrichment facilities that are not under the inspection and safeguards system of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The Carter Administration, in April 1979, invoked Section 669 and suspended aid to Pakistan after intelligence information confirmed that Pakistan was building a secret uranium enrichment facility.

Here is why Olmert is trying to back away from his admission that Israel has nuclear weapons.
Under UNITED STATES LAW, Israel cannot receive US foreign aid unless they allow IAEA inspections.
What was applied to Pakistan must apply equally to Israel.

check your facts...Israel doesn't have the bomb. You've been blasted by the lies of liberal media
Don't you think you're being a little paranoid? If they haven't used the bomb yet what does it matter? What's important is that the arab's know they have the bomb so they won't do anything stupid
What kind of comments are these? Close minded thick headed country folk I assume. Israel doesn't have the bomb? You must be death, or blind, or just plain...well...oh well. Good for you. ;)
Yet you completely miss the point, the concept and probably the boat. Whether this is two of you or one just being igorant twice I have no idea. It's just sad though. What do YOU think will happen when the arabs do have the bomb?
