Scary transfer of nuclear information - Jared Kushner has a security clearance and he's transferring nuclear info to Saudi Arabia
Echo opinion from Arkansas - Why isn't FoxNews (TrumpTV) covering this?
I strongly object to the transfer of nuclear technology, led by Jared Kushner, to Saudi Arabia by IP3 International*. (Two article links follow this letter to the editor below.)
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is a cruel and ruthless tyrant in the same mold as Moammar Gadhafi. Uranium 235, the fuel used in nuclear reactors, is also used to make nuclear weapons. Since Iran is a mortal enemy of Saudi Arabia, once this transfer takes place, I believe Iran will have no choice but to begin its own nuclear weapons program.
I strongly urge the Arkansas congressional delegation to do everything it can to stop this transfer, which will ultimately turn the Middle East into a ticking time bomb that threatens not only that region of the world, but the security of United States as well.
What you do or don't do now about this situation will ultimately determine the fate of the world as we know it.

Why it matters: Saudi Arabia says it wants nuclear power in order to be able to divert more oil for export, and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) led negotiations with the U.S. Energy and State departments last year over a power plants deal "worth upward of $80 billion," per the New York Times. But the kingdom has reportedly resisted safeguards to ensure it doesn’t develop nuclear weapons, and MBS said last March that Saudi Arabia will "follow suit as soon as possible" if its rival Iran makes a break for the bomb.
The meeting was first reported by Bloomberg, which noted that companies "are working to get U.S. government approval of next-generation advanced and small modular nuclear reactors — and sell them to the world" at a difficult time for the domestic market.
