Israel used nuclear blackmail against America in 1973 for arms embargo.

Soooo... I just learned something new from this video. In 1973, the United States instituted an arms embargo against Israel. Israel responded by threatening America with nuclear blackmail. Now this traitor American who used his US Naval Intelligence Officer top secret clearance to give as much top secret data as possible is saying next time it won't be a threat. That Israel has the right to use all weapons they have at their disposal.

According to Google AI: Israeli nuclear alert. On October 9, 1973, Israel prepared its nuclear weapons for use, a signal that was likely meant to be detected by the US. This was a clear sign that Israel's situation was desperate.

Full-scale airlift. In response, Nixon ordered "Operation Nickel Grass," a massive military airlift that began on October 14, 1973. The operation ultimately supplied Israel with thousands of tons of military equipment, including tanks and aircraft, allowing the Israelis to launch a successful counteroffensive.

I put this video together for you, customized this background and description, took these screenshots, and added the captions that I proofread for you. Also added my highlights and background music for storytelling ambiance.

AP 1/20/2021:
President Donald Trump on Wednesday granted a full pardon to Aviem Sella, the handler of convicted Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard, as part of the outgoing.

The White House said in a statement that Sella’s request for clemency received backing from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli ambassador in Washington, the American ambassador to Israel, and Miriam Adelson,

The Times of Israel 1/20/2021:
Pollard’s Israeli handlers were granted immunity from prosecution in the US in exchange for cooperation after Pollard’s arrest. But because Sella’s role was unknown at the time, he was not given immunity. His indictment carried a maximum sentence of life imprisonment and a $500,000 fine.

The same week of his indictment, Israel angered the US by promoting Sella to brigadier-general and commander of the Tel Nof Air Force Base. The US then issued a letter barring visiting US delegations from having any contact with him.

Newsweek 1/20/2021:
Sella's role was not made public during Pollard's trial, which meant he—unlike the spy's other handlers—was not given immunity in return for cooperation with the investigation. Sella returned to Israel, which refused to extradite him to the U.S. where he was tried and convictedin absentia.

The issue continued to strain U.S.-Israeli relations. When Sella was given command of the country's Tel Nof air base,Congress threatened to cut military aid to Israel. The country refused to remove Sella, who eventually resigned to defuse the stand-off.
