The Libian Airplane[edit]

The Libian Airplane was shot over western Sinai and has nothing to do with the NNRC close to Dimona in Eastern Israel. Oded Navon (talk) 06:41, 31 August 2015 (UTC) Oded Navon[reply]

Name disambiguation[edit]

There are numerous mentions of "Dimona" in the article, but it is important to note that Dimona is the name of the city NEAR the installation, not the name of the installation itself. This should be corrected.

mig-25 claims[edit]

The was a paragraph in the article attempting to claim that mig-25's flown by soviet pilots overflew Dimona in 1967. The paragraph attempted to make the claim based on a source that while making the claim in a headline does not confirm anything in its actual proof. The quote of interest from the Jerusalem Post article is:

"In 1967, the military valor and high combat training of Col. Bezhevets, A.S. (now a Hero of the Soviet Union, an honorary test pilot of the USSR, [and] retired Air Force major-general), were demonstrated while carrying out combat operation in Egypt, [and] enabled [him] to perform unique reconnaissance flights over the territory of Israel in a MiG-25RB aircraft."

What is confirmed is that a soviet mig-25 piloted by a russian performed recon flights over Israel in 1967. That is NOT the same as a confirmation that Dimona itself was overflown. 70.234.225.7 (talk) 13:02, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Israeli time machine?[edit]

The as of 2009/10/5 the article says "The Dimona reactor went on-line some time between 1962 and 1964, and with the plutonium produced there, perhaps together with enriched uranium (see Plumbat Operation), the Israel Defence Forces most probably had their first nuclear weapons ready before the Six-Day War." but the Operation Plumbat page says "Operation Plumbat was an Israeli covert operation in 1968 to obtain yellowcake (processed uranium ore) to support the Israeli nuclear weapons effort.[1]" How could uranium obtained in 1968 be used to make nuclear weapons for a war that started (and finished!) in 1967?

I've removed the claim that Israel had (or has, or will have) a working time machine. It may have been (be, will be) true but I can't find a reference anywhere. HughesJohn (talk) 10:52, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why nothing about the radiation leaks and jailing of the irradiated victims ?[edit]

TV reported it. Why does WP cover this up but not Fukushima? 94.29.124.238 (talk) 12:34, 13 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
