Declassified documents indicate Israel and South Africa conducted nuclear test in 1979

37 years after a mysterious double flash was detected in the South Atlantic Ocean, newly declassified American documents suggest that Israel cooperated with the Apartheid regime; the sources that leaked the information were a former Israeli MK and a senior missile engineer.

За исключением вот этой банальности

Declaring that Israel conducted a nuclear experiment only six months after the signing of the Camp David Accords—considered a significant achievement of the Carter administration—would leave the United States with no choice but to impose sanctions on the State of Israel. "For Carter, saying that Israel conducted a nuclear experiment was no less than a terrible nightmare," Cohen notes.
The panel therefore reached the conclusions that were more convenient to all involved. A classified memo by a senior official at the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) from June 1980 dubbed that the White House panel’s report a "whitewash, due to political considerations," and argued the flash was the result of a nuclear test. A decade later, Wolfgang Panofsky, one of the most respected physicists on the panel, said in an interview, "We made a 'Scotch Verdict.' There wasn’t enough evidence to decide either way."

У меня есть подозрение, что американцы прекрасно в курсе всех подробностей израильского атомного проекта.
Но информация эта будет выдана на гора только в случае, если отношения между Израилем и США станут ну совсем хреновыми.

Подозрение? Я думаю, это - хорошо установленный факт. Поэтому не понимаю смысла статей, подобных цитированной.
