Pakistan got the blame because the proliferator was a Pakistani citizen. There is much evidence to show that the government of Pakistan didn't know the full extent of A.Q Khan's network for a long period of time.
You don't like what I have to say, so I must have an "ulterior motive"?
This is correct, I think the US has a genuine interest in non-proliferation, period. They even reprimanded South Korea for their dodgy enrichment activities, KSA has no chance of getting a green light for nukes. But to be honest, I don't think US has much to worry about. You could put Saudi's in...
Saudi Arabia can ink as many nuclear deals as it likes, it will still remain as the most culturally backward and the most retarding force towards progress in the Middle East.
I always hear about how "Pakistan helped/started Iran's nuclear programme" which I always thought to be quite erroneous.
It was a Pakistani that helped Iran, not Pakistan.
I really despise Pakistani's that are hostile to Iran's nuclear programme because they want to be the only Muslim country with nuclear weapons. Do you Pakistani's believe this would last forever?
What exactly are the benefits of being the sole nuclear state in the muslim world anyway? You think...
Iranians themselves despise the current form of government.
61% of Iranians oppose the current form of government and want the supreme leader to be elected. 79% favor abolishing the position of supreme leader all together.
Iran needs a complete different form of government for it realise its potential. Mullahs don't know anything about economics, education, commerce, industrial policy or even international relations. They should stay in Qom and let the politicians run the government.
Dude wtf are you talking about Hamas and rockets coming into Israel? What does this have to do with Iran? Because Iran supports Hamas? Every country in the region and the vast majority of its people support Hamas and its ressistance. I don't even see how the two are comparable, these are...
What you mean protect their "intellectual assets"? You expect Iran to protect every single engineering/science graduate student? They are not even assassinating anyone involved in the nuclear programme, just normal academics and staff.
...
Huh? Please explain this because I am lost.
lmao you acting as if Saudi Arabia is the Switzerland of Europe, an innocent by stander in a "tough neighbourhood". ohh plzzz.
99% of the regions terrorists graduate from the world renowned jihadist factories in your country. most the turmoil in this region is funded by SA citizens, numerous...
I stopped taking Mosamania 's posts seriously soon after I joined this forum. He is a delusional apologist for a corrupt family that has taken his countries resources and wealth as their own personal property. That is all.
KSA spends more than 10% of GDP on military. That is NOT less than "many others", in fact is among the highest spenders whether you consider military spending as a percentage of GDP or the aggregate amount.
Is this $30 billion deal part of the $60 billion package signed a year ago?
Anyway, these Saudi's buying weapons like they preparing for World War 3 or something.
