Samson option
The Samson option is the Israeli military strategy of massive destruction and nuking of any country that has achieved significant damage against Israel. Israel refuses to concede or deny that they have nuclear weapons.[1] This is a policy of deliberate ambiguity.[2] It is named after the biblical Israelite judge who committed a mass murder-suicide of thousands of Philistines who had captured him.[3]
