In November of 1998, the Western media (London Times, Foreign Report, Wired News) [1][2][3] reported that Israel was striving to develop what they called a biological “ethno-bomb” that could specifically target Arabs by focusing on their specific genetic traits. Of course, Israel panicked and denounced the stories as “a hoax”, a “blood libel” and “a work of science fiction”, claiming the views of all researchers was that the entire idea of and ethnic bio-weapon was “wholly fantastical”. Nobody agreed with them, but a second planned installment of the article which was to contain more detailed information never appeared, and the authors have since [declined to discuss the matter further. It is not difficult to imagine the pressure that was applied. A member of the Israeli parliament denounced the Sunday Times report, stating,“Morally, based on our history, and our tradition and our experience, such a weapon is monstrous and should be denied.” But morally, based on the Jews’ history, tradition, and experience, denial is not necessarily the most appropriate response.
1998年11月,西方媒体(伦敦时报、外国报道、有线新闻)报道称,以色列正在努力开发他们所谓的生物“种族炸弹”,这种炸弹可以通过关注阿拉伯人的特定遗传特征来专门针对他们。当然,以色列感到恐慌,并谴责这些故事是“骗局”、“血腥诽谤”和“科幻作品”,声称所有研究人员的观点都是整个种族生物武器的想法“完全是荒诞的”。没有人同意他们的观点,但第二部分计划包含更多详细信息的文章从未出现,作者此后拒绝进一步讨论此事。不难想象所施加的压力。以色列议会的一名成员谴责《星期日泰晤士报》的报道,称:“从道德上讲,根据我们的历史、传统和经验,这种武器是可怕的,应该被拒绝。”但从道德上讲,根据犹太人的历史、传统和经验,拒绝不一定是最合适的回应。
