Pakistan and Saudi Arabia have concluded a secret agreement on “nuclear cooperation” that will provide the Saudis with nuclear-weapons technology in exchange for cheap oil, the WASHINGTON TIMES will report on Wednesday, sources tell DRUDGE... Developing Hard...

If this is true, decisive action will have to be taken against both of these so-called 'allies.'

4. I'll take your word for it
So we go into Iraq.......nothing


and while we're in a quagmire we have Pakistan lobbing nukes to Saudi Arabia......

talk about embarrassing!

but what are we going to do, march into Arabia & Pakistan???

HA! not when we're stretched thin across the globe, with 1/2 of the soldiers saying they won't re enlist.

6. Saudi Arabia will be joining them soon
They want nukes and they shall have them.
If not from Pakistan perhaps from NK, Iran or Russia.
My guess is Pakistan has sold or intends to sell
them what they want.

10. Who can blame them?
With these murderous traitors in the White House, the only way a country can protect itself (for a while) is to have nukes. Witness North Korea.

Thanks, Bush, for making us sa-- no, I can't even try to say that with a straight face.

3. I think it 's great news
Perhaps a nuclear Saudi/Pakistani alliance will keep Bush and Sharon
in check. Time someone starts.

5. It is good news
But woe unto those poor folks living in the area around there. How long before Israel starts warning them about their capability to destroy their country?

7. "Developing" my ass...
this story has been reported by Arnaud de Borchgrave of UPI. No wonder it's going to appear in the Moonie Times.

If you guys want to believe de Borchgrave's propaganda, go ahead. I'd believe Sean Hannity just as readily.

15. No kidding....
I blame myself for at least one of 'em.

The moonie UPI ran it on Monday, Drudge spotted it Tuesday night, the Moonie Times will run it on Wednesday. Fox will pick it up by Friday. And it'll be lost again by Monday, since there's no freakin' source....

12. Ok there are good reasons why
this may be the case, though why is this in the Moonie
news service good question.

I woudl wait for more "solid" as in other News Sources
to pick this up

For the record, the House of Saud has have Nuclear Intentions
for at least fifteen years, and some former Clinton Intelligence
officials even said that they were behind the initial development
in Iraq, BEFORE the First Gulf War... as they see a Muslim Nuke
as basic to counter Israel.

That is why this story does send shivers down my back
