Let me concede it right at the start. We do apply a double standard to Israel. No Western country imposes sanctions on the Jewish state over its illegal nuclear weapons program. No one has suggested that we bomb its facilities or assassinate its technicians.
The reason for our double standard should be obvious. Israel is not pointing its nuclear weapons at us. It offers no threat to Europe or the United States. Whatever you think of its government, that government is not seeking to overthrow yours — unless, of course, you are Iranian.
