Why don’t we just sell them our nukes? We’re giving them 18 Billion dollars and they will use that to make their own nukes. Hell, it would have been cheaper to keep the 18 billion and given them a half dozen 20 Megaton bombs in exchange.
Our country is insane. Everyone who voted for the Corker bill needs to be removed from office. That includes Cruz and Paul.
What’s weird?
The trifecta here is Syria, Russia, Iran, soon Turkey. Assad’s statement is totally reasonable.
It may seem weird as our foreign policy is so out of step with reality that we’re making concessions too the devil.
“If you’ve got the money, Achmed, I’ve got the time”
If I were the Israelis, I wouldn’t trust the Saudis as far as I could spit.
Yes, the Saudis would like to get Israel to do their fighting for them, but when its done, they would readily sink a dagger deep into Israel’s back.
I could see the Saudis offering up an airbase for the IAF to use, and then destroying them on the ground after the strike is over. If I were the Israelis I wouldn’t do a thing until I’d tied a nuke around the Saudi King’s neck for insurance.
1. Using Jericho 3 ICBMs with nuclear warheads.
2. Using Popeye Turbo submarine launched cruise missiles with nuclear warheads.
3. A series of air strikes against the Iranian nuclear sites using the IAF operating from Saudi bases. The Saudis (and other Sunni Gulf states) are mortally afraid if a nuclear armed Iran. I can see a marriage of convenience based on “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” There have been rumors of an Israei-Saudi alliance in case Iran gets nuclear weapons.
Personally, I like options 1 and 2.
