"Saudi Arabia to buy nuclear bombs from Pakistan: report"
From the
New York Post:
Saudi Arabia will join the nuclear club by buying “off the shelf”
atomic weapons from Pakistan, US officials told a London newspaper.
The Saudis — who financed much of Pakistan’s nuke program — are
fearful of international efforts to keep its enemy Iran from acquiring a
bomb, the Sunday Times of London reports. The Saudis think the deal, backed by President Obama, will actually accelerate Iran’s nuke push.
Saudi Arabia has talked for years about acquiring a bomb from the
Pakistanis. “The House of Saud has now made the strategic decision to
move forward,” a former US defense official said.
