I'm sure no corruption was involved.

Turns out there's no nuclear deal ... because Trump tried to tack on the Saudis having to join the "Abraham Accords" after the deal was agreed to.

It's funny because we don't even try to hide that the US is a subsidiary of Israel, but you're not allowed to talk about it.

Israel First!

Supplying is fine. That is actually the underlying logic of the NPT. That countries get peaceful nuke technology access in return for not getting nuclear weapons.

The problem arises only when we imagine the NPT is self-enforcing. That countries can be coerced into not gaining nuclear ambiguity. Never was the idea.

The idea was to give some benefit countries would lose if they chose to go nuclear weapons.

The deal is in otherwords totally ok. Except for Trump tying other stuff to it.

Israel is more an appendix that does all the crazy stuff the US wants to do, but does not do. A "talk to the puppet" country.
