Saudi Arabia will join the nuclear club by buying “off the shelf” atomic weapons from Pakistan, US officials told a London newspaper.

[dfwgator]

The problem really comes when the House of Saud is overthrown, then what?

[montag813]

Yet another mistake of the idiot Bush: trusting the evil Musharraf and accepting his independence after 9/11 — instead of using the U.S. military to de-nuke Pakistan and smash their links to Al Queda. NO Islamic nation can be trusted with a nuke.

This is awful! I sure hope Our President© hurries up and destroys all of ours so we'll be setting a good example and the Saudis and the Iranians and the Russians and the Chinese and the North Koreans and the Pakistanis and the Brits and the French will throw all of theirs into the ocean.

Why yes, I am applying for a State Department job. Why do you ask?

Another result of the disastrous Obama/Clinton foreign policies.

Actually, per my specops friends, the Sadui military is pretty good. Ranking: (1) Israel (duh), (2) Egypt, (3) Saudi Arabia. They don’t suck.

/ref ME only. Worldwide, Israela and US (despite 0’s efforts) are WAY ahead of everyone else.

[JohnBrowdie]

doubt it. he’s not that competent.

Turkey is under the NATO nuclear umbrella. If someone nukes Turkey, NATO is obligated to retaliate.

It seemed like an unusually large number to me.

The Bible was written by Middle-Easterners for MEers, so a third of the ME destroyed would be enough to check them for another century... at best, what with their emigration progress recently.

The key is to insure Israel escapes the devastation.

[Theoria]

Good question. I don't have the answers. We still are not sure what has happened to the loose nukes post USSR fall.

But, we have also tolerated Pakistan having them since the early 90's. Then again, India gets to worry about that more than US.

[dfwgator]

Yep, damn Turks are going to pull us into WWIII, whose wonderful idea was it let them in NATO?

[servantboy777]

Appeasement, liberalism....ain’t it dandy?

[Gen.Blather]

They reportedly gave the pilots who flew bombing missions in Yemen Bentleys. I’m thinking it was because they had a hard time getting them to fly.

They may be good, but are they motivated? The original king convinced the tribes to fight together under him. Would anybody follow the current, reportedly feeble king if he declared war? Would the military or the Saudi people undergo the kinds of depravations that war brings without revolting? The royal family is not popular and they maintain power by paying off the people. Interrupt the flow of oil and that ends real fast.

Good work Obama. We can watch a whole new set of dominoes fall because of this.

The nuclear powers did their best to prevent proliferation in the old days. Now Russia and Obama cast that aside in their brave new world. (Russia helping Iran)

[Cementjungle]

If somebody favored Iran, it would be in their interest to “leak” this, whether or not true, to justify the Iranian nuclear program.

Or maybe someone's floating this to try and discourage us from letting Iran get nukes.

[mrsmith]

LOL!
Just three days ago the WashPost told it’s idiots “A nuclear Iran will not lead to a nuclear Middle East, no matter what the Gulf states say”:

Could be.

[DuncanWaring]

Surely you realize he had this planned from the start.

[JohnBrowdie]

I don’t believe he’s that smart.

“President Pretentious Ignoramus has set off a nuclear arms race in the most unstable region of the world.”

I hope the children of Obama Voters live long enough to curse their names for voting for this idiot.
