Under Trump arms deal, high-tech U.S. bombs to be built in Saudi Arabia
"The concerns over this sale are only one more reason showing the importance of congressional review and why it is deeply disturbing that the Trump administration is trying to circumvent the law and Congress to give the Saudis not only American jobs but also American weapons technology," Sen. Bob Menendez of New Jersey, the ranking Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said.
The co-production plan had raised eyebrows among some lawmakers more than a year ago when the administration first tried to secure approval for tens of thousands of precision-guided bombs to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, a Democratic congressional aide told NBC News.

They won’t need to hijack planes to take down the new WTC.

China steals our IP but no way the Saudis would ever do that.

Well they came out in the 60's.......
Depends on which version they are going to let them build. -
Its the hypocrisy that gets me more than anything. North Korea nuke program under their beloved Bill Clinton. BO giving the largest exporter of terror over a billion in cash and a pathway to nuclear arms, guns for drugs, telling Putin over an open mic that he would discontinue missile defense once he was reelected, BO and team ignoring supposed Russian interference in our elections, etc, etc.
Now these nitwits are worried about government oversight? About the saudi's?
The hypocrisy is off the charts. -
We already know Trump and Kush want to pass nuclear tech to the Saudis. What could possibly go wrong? MBS and MBZ are great guys I hear...

“Today’s report reveals new and extensive evidence that corroborates Committee whistleblowers and exposes how corporate and foreign interests are using their unique access to advocate for the transfer of U.S. nuclear technology to Saudi Arabia. The American people deserve to know the facts about whether the White House is willing to place the potential profits of the President’s personal friends above the national security of the American people and the universal objective of preventing the spread of nuclear weapons.”
New documents show that Thomas J. Barrack, Jr.—a longtime personal friend, campaign donor, and inaugural chairman—negotiated directly with President Trump and other White House officials to seek powerful positions within the Administration—including Special Envoy to the Middle East and Ambassador to the United Arab Emirates—at the same time he was (1) promoting the interests of U.S. corporations seeking to profit from the transfer of nuclear technology to Saudi Arabia; (2) advocating on behalf of foreign interests seeking to obtain this U.S. nuclear technology; and (3) taking steps for his own company, Colony NorthStar, to profit from the same proposals he was advancing with the Administration. -
