Do not award a Presidential Medal of Freedom to Israeli President Shimon Peres, a nuclear proliferator.
President Obama has announced he will award the Presidential Medal of Freedom of Israeli President Shimon Peres. According to the book "Israel and the Bomb" by Avner Cohen, Peres played a key role in the Israeli nuclear weapons program. According to declassified documents published by scholar Sasha Polakow-Suransky in 2010, Peres even offered to sell nuclear-tipped Jericho missiles to Apartheid South Africa. According to the book "Divert" part of the clandestine Israel nuclear program even involved stealing US government-owned nuclear material from the NUMEC plant in Pennsylvania. This occurred while Peres was in charge.

Giving a Presidential Medal of Freedom to Peres is tantamount to rewarding the only nuclear proliferator in the Middle East.
