The World’s Worst Kept Secret: Israel’s Bargain with the Bomb, with Avner Cohen

With a code of nuclear conduct born in a secret deal between Richard Nixon and Golda Meir, Israel is the only nuclear-armed state that does not admit possession of the bomb, even though its existence is common knowledge.

In The World’s Worst-Kept Secret, Cohen offers fresh perspectives on Iran, Israel, and the effort toward global disarmament.

Avner Cohen is a senior fellow of the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies at the Monterey Institute of International Studies.
