Want to help the erratic, murderous Saudi regime develop nuclear technology? That's okay with the Department of Energy.

The U.S. Department of Energy has approved six authorizations for U.S. companies seeking to conduct nuclear related work in Saudi Arabia, according to two sources with knowledge of those approvals.
Federal law stipulates that companies obtain clearance from the U.S. government for exporting nuclear technology to or engaging in the production or development of special nuclear material in Saudi Arabia.
The authorizationsknown as Part 810s, referring to a clause in federal regulations allow U.S. companies to divulge specific details about plans for working in Saudi Arabia and certain information about the nuclear technology. For example, a company would need a Part 810 to transfer physical documents, electronic media or the transfer of knowledge and expertise to Saudi Arabia, according to the Department of Energy.
Its been unclear to what extent the U.S. government, and U.S. companies, have communicated with Riyadh about nuclear energy, especially in the wake of the brutal murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi and amid claims by Democrats on the Hill that individuals in the national security community attempted to discuss a nuclear deal with Riyadh without going through the proper regulatory approval process.

(3,985 posts)2015 - MBS & Putin meet to discuss 16 nuclear plants for SA.

I think I read SA is insistent on making its own nuclear fuel.
He also noted that arrangements were being made to offer the project for international bidding. "We will consider expertise that we can benefit from," he said.

☝🏼️Brookfield-owned Westinghouse Nuclear tech.
Trump announces a run for President
2016 Putin & MBS finalize nuclear deal
Trump elected.
A giant real estate consortium with some Middle East investors save Kushner,
then buys Westinghouse Nuclear division,
quickly followed by Rick Perry handing $3.7 billion to finish building Vogtle nuke plant in Georgia,
Indian techies are shipped back to India w/cancelled visas (who will replace them?), and
days later Trump et all announce sharing nuke tech with Saudi Arabia.
Can the Media not connect the dots? Can we?
The gist:
Brookfield bailed out Kushner's 666 building debt, in a sense. Dem Congress suspicious.

https://www.thestar.com/news/world/2019/03/12/toronto-based-brookfield-faces-scrutiny-from-democrats-over-deal-with-kushner-company.html
Then there is some meeting in February 2019 with the President to help grease the wheels on getting the 2 new Georgia nuke plants built, stalled because of Westinghouse's financial problems before Brookfield (a real estate conglomerate) buys Westinghouse. The same Georgia that spent months under water recently, even often

No link needed, we know which young men are friends and connected to this orb of the inner circle.
Westinghouse Nuclear recently purchased by the same Brookfield that leased Kushner's Building 666.

Now, today Rick Perry gives $3.7 Billion to the Georgia Nuclear plant Voglet stalled because Westinghouse was struggling with bankruptcy potential.

Learn who the partners are for Brookfield. This is very important, but comples. Here is the name chain that may take us to the top of this huge, wealthy organization

I wonder who will replace all the India techies just sent home? no visa extentions.
The nuke technology is now privately owned by Brookfield the lessee of Kushner's building 666.
Brilliant game of chess, the long game 2015-2019.
Billions to be pocketed by owners & enablers.

Whats the big quid pro quo in all of this nuclear posturing?
Who wants what for launching nuclear competition? It has to be more than a perfect money laundering scheme?

(16,093 posts)My theory is that the Trumps and their extended family are looking for a home in a country without an extradition treaty, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Bahrain fit the bill!
Provide the Saudis with access to technology that no previous administration even considered, make sure of the ability to transfer billions into offshore account, have businesses already set up outside of the borders of the US...and at the right moment sneak out of the country...leaving people like Nielsen, Mulvaney and Pence holding the bag!
Just a theory!!!

(16,350 posts)Which is their right. They consider wahhabism to be a very authentic tradition.
The Iranians on the other hand, directly fund the largest non-state military in the world (Hezbollah). They fund a terrorist group in Gaza (Hamas). They have their military in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen. Their foreign policy is overtly expansionist, which is referred to as the "Shia crescent". It includes control over Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Iran and the gulf. They are orders of magnitude more dangerous than the Saudis.

(1,702 posts)arrange a FUCKIN BILLION DOLLAR deal with the brother of Jared Kushner to bail them out of the devil building at 666 Park Ave. Jared shares top secret intel about MBS adversaries, (they all start to disappear) and suddenly the Billion dollar investment in a failing building happens. And, then the Nuke deal happens. Nah, nothing to any of this, right! GRIFTERS and TRAITORS !
