Yellow cake, it's not just for breakfast.

It's probably years away from actually developing nuclear weapons.


OTOH, the fact that yet another nation has decided to join in the nuclear bomb madness in times of world wide civil unrest does not bode well.
 

Apparently one people saw coming, and raised alarms about.

Most recently, Trump met on February 12 with the IP3 International representatives and the chief executive officers of major US nuclear energy producers to discuss developing nuclear power plants in Jordan and Saudi Arabia, a meeting that was initiated by IP3's founder, retired Army General Jack Keane, according to the committee report which cited Bloomberg News.

The IP3 proposal has been repeatedly promoted to White House officials by Thomas Barrack, according to the report. Barrack is a personal friend of the president who raised $107m for Trump's Inaugural Committee. US prosecutors in New York are investigating the inaugural committee activities.

In addition, the committee report focuses on former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, a retired army general who in 2016 worked as an adviser to a subsidiary of IP3 while he was also serving in Trump's presidential campaign.

Flynn was an advocate for IP3's plan to sell nuclear power plants to Saudi Arabia in the transition period after Trump won the US election and when he joined the White House as national security adviser, according to the unnamed whistleblowers cited in the report.

As Trump took office in early 2017, Bud McFarlane, former President Ronald Reagan's national security adviser and now an adviser to IP3, emailed Flynn draft documents for the president's signature outlining a new "Marshall Plan for the Middle East" centred on development of dozens of civilian nuclear power plants by US companies.
 

Trump, Trump, Trump. You and the media both eat shit.

It's no secret that Saudi Arabia has shown interest in pursuing nuclear weapons development as a counter to Iran if the Iranian program were not shut down, totally shut down. This interest goes back to the Clinton administration.

While you're at it, dig up a news story blaming Trump for Japan's growing interest in going nuclear. I'm sure there's a couple out there even though Japan has shown such interest going back to the 1960's. :rolleyes: You can reliably blame China's growing belligerence on that one.
 
NK says they have nukes now too.

Imagine if they announced that on Obama's watch! :eek:
 
I didn’t dig up anything. The article Thor posted linked back to that article. 🙊

Of course, you really didn’t care to address what the article said about Trump. Imagine that.

I’m still getting a *chuckle* out of this. You didn’t even bother to read what Thor posted I’m betting. You just saw I posted about Trump and 🤯🤯🤯 You just had to post something.

From the article Thor posted

A US congressional committee issued a report in May 2019 warning the administration of President Donald Trump was allowing US companies to offer Saudi Arabia nuclear technologies without first obtaining non-proliferation guarantees the know-how would not be used to eventually produce a weapon.

In February 2019, government whistle-blowers had alerted the US House of Representatives that the Trump administration was bypassing Congress to greenlight future sales of nuclear technology to Saudi Arabia, without non-proliferation safeguards, thus potentially laying the ground for a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.
