6. Israel
Points – 12
Up next on our list of countries that have weapons of mass destruction is Israel, a country that’s right in the middle of a rather conflict-ridden area. The country is known to have some 80 nuclear warheads, a sizable arsenal. Israel has made it its business to keep a rather tight-lip regarding this topic so not much is known from official sources.
When it comes to biological weapons, it is unclear whether Israel still has a running program regarding the research and development of such weapons, but it is known that it used to have one where they researched agents such as Anthrax. The research conducted in regards to chemical weapons at the Israeli Center for Biological Research has been quite extensive, too. Official statements regarding this issue have not acknowledged the progress they’ve made, nor denied anything, making all the allegations seem that much more real.
