and some more:
“...n November 2020, Saudi Arabia’s then-foreign minister warned it would develop nuclear weapons if Iran became a nuclear power.
Adel al-Jubeir said it was ‘definitely an option’ for the Middle-Eastern state to develop nuclear capabilities if its rival Iran could not be stopped from making one, adding that other countries would likely do the same.
The latest revelation comes after Iran’s Revolutionary Guards fired ballistic and cruise missiles on Tuesday during war games in the Gulf.
‘The use of ballistic missiles by the Revolutionary Guards’ navy is a new concept ... and they hit their targets with 100% precision,’ Guards chief General Hossein Salami told the broadcaster.
Iran has said its ballistic missiles have a range of 2,000 km (1,200 miles) and are capable of reaching arch-foe Israel, Saudi Arabia and US bases in the region.”
This is unsurprising, frankly. When you have the kind of money that the Saudis have, you can buy anything.
President Retard set off a chain reaction by abandoning our friends and coddling his buddies in Iran like John Kerry wants 🤪
Let ‘em fight. We have all the oil we need
I speculate that China is working to defeat (Iran), a competitor for control of the middle east.
Our friends the Saudis...
This is the result of our government’s decision to end the 60 year strategic relationship between the US and Saudi Arabia. The guys in Washington are pathetically incompetent.
Wrote a graduate school paper on this a decade plus ago......and I am not giving the exact title out nor where it can be found via an internet search, but major deja vu here.
If they’re gonna nuke Iran with them, I don’t see a downside.
The development is likely to threaten the balance of power in the Middle East cold war between Saudi Arabia and Iran and could derail negotiations to revive Tehran’s 2015 nuclear deal with the US.

Good news for a change from the ME.
Just think of the 3-way war that could break out...
You have the major Islamic Countries, with Iran being Shiite and SA being Sunni, thrown the Jewish State of Israel into the mix and you have a potential 3-way nuclear war...
Israel has the bomb, Iran is soon to have the bomb and SA will get a bomb from somewhere.
All 3 either have or will have a delivery system.
Let the fun and games begin..
Communist China (and yes, the new USA regime) are causing a lot of mischief (and danger) in the world today.
Praying
This is a good thing.

Having met lots of Saudis and having had a couple of friends work long-term there for Aramco, I can tell you right now, there aren’t any Saudis putting these Chicom parts together.
My grandmother was reading articles about nuclear war in the mideast back in the 1970’s....
