What's the political punchline of the Sibel Edmonds disclosures?

OK, I'm gathering that high-level government figures in the U.S. had dealings with Turkey and Israel regarding nuclear secrets.

But why, and what's the potential political fallout?

I can't figure this out from all the disclosures coming out.

Is there a simple summary for all this?

6. A link to a summary will suffice.

The pictures don't really tell me much as I can only identify a few of the figures.

2. Have you seen the documentary "Kill The Messenger?"

It's broken up into 6 parts & you can find the additional links on the YouTube page. I highly recommend you watch the hour long piece.

8. If you can clarify your questions, I'll be happy to try and help you find the answers...

The why isn't clear, my guess is money and power. The fallout potential is great, but getting this into an actual prosecution is proving impossible.
