Kingdom Denies Nuke Report | ||
2006-04-01 | ||
Saudi Arabia yesterday denied a German magazine report that it was working on a secret nuclear program with the help of Pakistani experts. The report “is totally unfounded,” a Defense Ministry spokesman told the Saudi Press Agency, adding that Riyadh “advocates imposing nuclear non-proliferation in the (Middle East) region.”

#6 We may have nothing to fear, but it will still need to be fixed. Nasty, selfish children don't get to play with grown-up's toys. |

#5 If the Saudi nukes work as well as the rest of the Saudi military, and there's no reason to believe they don't, we have nothing to fear. |

#3 The Saudis are probably very keen on getting their hand in the nuclear cash register, but for reasons other than what might be supposed. They fear Iran in a big way, and righly so. If something doesn't change drastically, Iran is going to make a bomb someday and the Sauds are scared shitless of the idea. |

#2 So what was the quid pro quo in the Saud' financing deal? I suspect that the Sauds already have a couple of nukes. |
