| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This work examines U.S.-Israeli cooperation on nuclear desalination, arguing that neither technical nor financial obstacles were the main reasons for its demise. By late 1968 U.S. policy makers concluded that the offer of a reactor for desalination would not sway Israel from its determination to maintain secrecy at Dimona, leaving open the way to a nuclear military option. |
