#1 We know this already. Lovely Iran "dove of peace" sparked an arab arms race. How peaceful is that. Now I AM looking at all of Ishmael with detest and disgust. What a rotted place they put themselves in. But again, it is easier to drill through glass than through their thick heads.

Just tell me when they have ability to OP.

This charade is over.

#4 Hmmm. Seems that Soddies are keen to fulfill the old Arab prophecy that Mecca would be burned with heaven's fire and turned into glowing gravel. No, not by us. It sez by people of their own creed.

#5 This charade is over.

Only for us. Our political traitor elite surely thinks otherwise.

#6 The Saudis have oil and want nukes
The Chinese have nukes and want oil

The deal WILL be made. Why would the Saudis go to all the trouble of developing a full nuclear program when they can just do what they normally do? Cash on the barrel-head so to speak.

#9 If I were Musharraf, I would be GIVING Saudi Arabia my own nukes for safe keeping.

#10 Among other premises or agendas, WOT > STATUS QUO is no longer acceptable or tolerable. Ergo, WOT > for the enemies of the USA-West > IS AN "APOCALYPSE", A CATASTROPHIC EPOCH-APEX = POINT OF DECISION = POINT OF NO RETURN.

#11 They financed Pakistan's project, so there has been a rumor that they were given a couple in return.

Yeesh. The house of Saud seems more like a house of cards. Not the safest bet.

#16 Folks, this is one of the consequences of us losing in Iraq: the increased nuclearization of the middle east - in response to the Persian nukes and the lack of a counterbalance to the Persians in the region (with Iraq gone that is).

Hang this on Murth's fat bejoweled head - him, Pelosi and Reid and the whole the peace at any price movement.

#17 the peace at any price movement

Man alive, OldSpook. That needs to become the new "Peace in our time" albatross we hang around the left's worthless neck.

#18 how does one hide nuclear facilities under a prison? Or why a prison?

My guess is it would be a large area that satellite photos wouldn't pick up as suspicious. Any Gitmo detainees returned for Saudi incarceration or Iraqi scientists supposedly under arrest following Saddam's demise would be on site & not draw attention by activity.

#19 A prison already has a high-security perimeter and lots of cheap labor.

#20 Rumor was the Saudis had nukes under Pakistani guard. They were to be delivered by the 40-60 Chinese CSS-2 ballistic missiles (2500km range) the Sauds bought. The CSS-2 had no other use since with a 1-2km target error they could barely hit a city center but could easily lift the 1000kg warhead design the Chinese gave to the Paks.

#22 "Under Pakistani Guard" more or less means a Pakistani armored brigade, or so I understood.

#23 "The peace at any price movement."

A succint deconstruction of the dysfunctional and wholly illogical LLL attitude if I've ever heard one.

I love it.

Yup, eltoroverde. If "peace at any price" is Islam's surcharge, we'd better get ready for one Helluva a tea party.

#25 One Helluva tea party? I'd better start baking now, and count my tea cups. I did get a second set of dessert plates some months back, so that won't be an issue... and I've plenty of demitasse cups for the caffeine fiends. ;-)

#26 One Helluva tea party?

Darling, tw. If you waitress the party how in the Hell will we have any sort of fun?!? Don't bother counting the silver, just set back and let us brutes do the heavy lifting and all that. Emkay?

#27 Maybe the rumor is "under prisons" because their head-choppers arms are getting tired and having some prisons vaporised by any player gets the head-choppers a vacation.

#28 Oh, I wouldn't dream of waitressing, Zenster dear. I'll just sit quietly and pour out the tea, and all you great big strong types can help yourself to the something strongers over there on the sideboard, should y'all prefer. Never let it be said I don't know how to throw a proper tea party, with the occasional dancing on the tables as necessary. ;-)

Bah! No such thing crossed what's left of my mind.
