THE SAMSON OPTIONMost people have never heard of it, but Israel’s “Samson Option” is not a myth. It’s a real strategic doctrine that suggests if the state of Israel were ever facing destruction, it would take the rest of the world down with it. The name comes from the biblical Samson, who brought down the temple on himself and his enemies.In practical terms, it refers to Israel’s policy of nuclear ambiguity; never confirming, never denying, yet maintaining an arsenal capable of striking not only its regional enemies, but also what Israeli strategists once called the “pillars of the world”, the great capitals of Europe.The very nations that fund, arm, and defend Israel, the same West that calls it an “ally”, are also within its nuclear targeting range should it ever choose to pull the final lever.It’s presented as deterrence, a last resort, a “you destroy us, we destroy everything” insurance policy, but even the existence of such a doctrine tells you something profound about the mindset behind it: not partnership, not shared values, but conditional loyalty, built on fear.Does this sound like the strategy of a friend? Or the warning of a hostage-taker?https://t.me/LauraAbolichannel
