(4,033 posts)If they did they would do something about global warming. The food chain is already dying out and we have less than 10 years to before most climate scientists figure we will pass the point of no return and what do Trump and the GOP do? Allow MORE greenhouse gases to be dumped into the atmosphere.
The GOP only cares about themselves.

Until we realize and understand that, we will only stall them. We cant win until we see them destroyed. Will American voters do that in 2020? Will the American people do that ever? I dont know.

(18,964 posts)If the Saudis use the nuclear technology to develop their own nuclear weapons, ...while we are denying their sworn enemy, Iran, the same capability...and...while Israel silently sits on top of their own nuclear capability which we have turned a blind eye to, then we have set the stage for:
1. A nuclear bullying of all Arab States by the Saudis to insure Sunni domination and control over more oil resources.
2. After submission of Iran and all other Shiite nations guerilla warfare/ terrorism will be institutionalized in the region.
3. Russia will conduct a "pincer movement" both militarily and diplomatically to squeeze the middle east into the Russian-Saudi sphere.
4. Saudi domination will eventually turn on Israel yielding the possibility of a nuclear confrontation
In the meantime.....

(10,013 posts)ISIS is Shite, not Sunni. Osama bin Laden was Sunni. Saudi Arabia has been exporting Sunni jihadis for years because they support the extremist Wahabism version of Islam. Giving them access to nuclear technology is the same as giving them weapons to attack US and other countries citizens around the world.

(29,322 posts)Shia Iran blacked militias fought ISIS which recruited in Sunni areas of Iraq & Syria.
Wahabbism is a sect of Sunni Islam but it has only been around since the 18th century and cultivated by the British in the beginning.
Al Qaeda & ISIS as well as Boko Haram are wahabbi.
I don't mind Sunni Islam at all just the wahabbi sect.

You are the settlement's chief and wise man. I want you to grant me an oath that you will perform jihad against the unbelievers. In return you will be imam, leader of the Muslim community and I will be leader in religious matters.

(35,688 posts)wouldn't you think that the scientists or nuclear administration people who manage this program would say something? What about a whistle blower from their ranks?
on edit: if you google this "trump sold nuclear technology saudis" and keep an eye on the dates, you will see more to this story since the one cited in the OP has a paywall. You will see the Dems tried to block it in the spring and that one of Trump's insiders started on this project a long time ago.
Why is every day a gut punch with this a@$#hole? Get rid of him already.
