3:28:50Now PlayingThe ‘Begin Doctrine’ has been Israel’s standard policy of pre-emptively striking nuclear facilities and weapons of mass destruction in any country that Tel Aviv considers a threat to its very survival.
Named after Israel’s former Prime Minister Menachem Begin, the doctrine was first applied in 1981 during “Operation Opera” to destroy Iraq’s Osirak nuclear reactor near Baghdad in a targeted attack.
It was applied again in 2007 to covertly destroy Syria’s Al-Kibar reactor in an operation that neither Israel publicly acknowledged until 2018 nor Syria revealed, as then-President Bashar al-Assad denied the existence of the site to avoid domestic and international pressure.
Thus, the strikes on June 13 against Iran’s nuclear and military infrastructures, known as the “Operation Rising Lion,” are the third time that Israel seems to have invoked the Begin doctrine.
