It appears that during a White House meeting in May, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu succeeded in obtaining President Barak Obama’s consent to refrain from pressuring Israel to open her nuclear facility to international inspectors. While the presence of the Dimona reactor is no longer a secret, international inspectors have not entered the site and there is no confirmation to reports that Israel has hundreds of atom bombs.

The latest deal, which comes 40 years after US President Richard Nixon and Prime Minister Golda Meir reached the unofficial agreement in 1969, provides Israel with the assurance that America will not exert pressure on Jerusalem to ‘come clean’ regarding its arsenal of non-conventional weapons.

The news of the White House’s decision comes in the background of recent renewed Syrian calls directed at the White House and other Western community nations, to pressure Israel to open the doors and reveal its nuclear arsenal in compliance with the nuclear non-proliferation treaty.
