Geopolitics

from Bro History · host Bro History

CALLING ALL PATRIOTS - I repeat Saudi Arabia is going NUCLEAR! Saudi Arabia wants a nuclear program and the White House is ready to help them achieve that goal. A report from the staff of the US House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform shows evidence that members of the Trump transition team tried to push through a plan to sell nuclear technology to Saudi Arabia. The plan would have led to the construction of 40 nuclear power plants and facilities to enrich uranium fuel. The technology, while focused on civil nuclear power, could give the Saudis resources that could be used to build nuclear weapons. The plan would also have pumped billions into a number of US companies involved in the nuclear industry. Labeled the “Middle East Marshall Plan,” which was spearheaded by IP3 International, a private company led by a retired admiral and whose board includes a bunch of retired generals and politicians. Flynn signed on as an advisor to IP3 International just before joining the Trump transition team. The Saudi nuclear sales push is the entire focus of IP3 International. Is the Saudi Arabis nuclear program a good idea? Are nuclear power plants in the Middle East a good idea at all? - – Patreon ▸ https://www.patreon.com/brohistory #60 Learn more about your ad choices.
