THE WAR ON YEMEN, AMERICA'S PLANS TO USE NUCLEAR WEAPONS AGAINST THE MIDDLE EAST
Prof. Michel Chossudovsky
Unconfirmed reports based on a video release dated May 20, 2015 point to a massive and unprecedented bomb explosion in Yemen.
The reports suggest without corroborating evidence that the explosion could have been the result of a nuclear strike, using a tactical nuclear weapon. There is no evidence to that effect.
Whatever the nature of this explosion, it constitutes a crime against humanity.
While there is no concrete evidence that the US led alliance has used nukes against Yemen, the broader issue of nuclear war against the Middle East is, nonetheless, of utmost relevance.
Washington’s nuclear agenda as defined by the 2001 Nuclear Posture Review (2001) consists in developing its tactical nuclear arsenal for use against non-nuclear States.
Since 2002, US-NATO tactical nuclear weapons targeting the Middle East are fully deployed.
Tactical nuclear weapons or so-called “mini-nukes” are bunker buster bombs equipped with a nuclear warhead. Their explosive capacity (e.g. the B61-11) varies between one third and six times a Hiroshima bomb.
