WikiLeaks cables: US agrees to tell Russia Britain's nuclear secrets
The Telegraph ^ | 9:25PM GMT 04 Feb 2011 | Matthew Moore, Gordon Rayner and Christopher Hope

Posted on 02/04/2011 2:03:33 PM PST by tje

The US secretly agreed to give the Russians sensitive information on Britain’s nuclear deterrent to persuade them to sign a key treaty, The Daily Telegraph can disclose.

Information about every Trident missile the US supplies to Britain will be given to Russia as part of an arms control deal signed by President Barack Obama next week.

Defence analysts claim the agreement risks undermining Britain’s policy of refusing to confirm the exact size of its nuclear arsenal.

Hiding corruption only breeds more corruption.

Is THAT a Conservative principle?

I'm saying that espionage is a crime. What problem do you have with that?

None. It sounds like we're in agreement.

Of course not. Again, I’m only saying that espionage is a crime. Is espionage a conservative principle?

You know, I don't think WikiLeaks intended to be a support for a restoration of conservative defense principles. They probably had no idea how devastating the evidence they inadvertantly released undermined the secrets of the Obama administrations' scheming behind the backs of the American people.

The utter imbecile Richard Lugar needs to be confronted with this...the idiot was doing his usual idiot-smile drooling at the signing of the START treaty two days ago.

Obama is mau-mauing the British, just like his father did.

Fine. We can also agree that the Kenyan Clown is bad for the country. I would have preferred some other way to prove it, though. Assange is dangerous.

“Gasp! Start impeachment hearing NOW.”

I absolutely agree with you. This man MUST be stopped. Impeached...or otherwise driven from office. This country cannot remain standing as a republic with 2 more years of this destruction.

As each day passes and this White House takes out our friends and us... I find fewer and fewer words to describe them anymore.

As bad as the wiki leaks betray is, without it, we would never know how deep the treason and stupidity runs with the Democrats.

Historically, the U.S. and British intelligence services have shared information, because of their long standing special relationship.

This has sometimes been disrupted (see, e.g., Kim Philby). And they don’t share ALL of their secrets. But they do pass along things that the other nation might find useful.

Obama has repeatedly made it clear that there is no longer a Special Relationship. He hates the British because they jailed his MauMau thug of a grandfather. He has insulted England repeatedly. And just the other day he said that France is our closest ally. (That’s when he’s not cozying up to Chavez or the Muslim Brotherhood.)

I hope that the Brits understand that Americans don’t hate them. Just our traitorous scum of a president. But at the moment it must be increasingly clear to our former allies that they simply cannot count on us.

I hope that any Republican Senators who voted for the Start Treaty will be reconsidering. And I also hope that they all get thrown out on their *sses in the next two elections.

Could it be that Assange is doing to Obama what Obama is doing to Britain?

Zero has zero integrity and is untrustworthy. Talk about backstabbing allies one after another. Think everyone will be glad when he leaves the WH.

And espionage that exposes espionage is one of those things that has unintended collateral damage. The secrets exposed were not secret from the Russians, they already knew Obama had betrayed the Brits. The only ones who didn’t know were the Brits and us.

I seriously doubt that.

Don't forget that the Kenyan POS had this crated up and sent back to the Brits whom he obviously despises.
