Wait? What?

Are you seriously suggesting that in lieu of cutting the problem off at the source by NOT giving a dangerous man like MBS nuclear weapons, we should rely on other nations in the region to clean up the mess?



No, that isn’t at all what I’m saying, and you can tell that’s the case because it bears literally no relation to what I did say.


You say "no problem, Israelis deal with it ... probably."


In response to What could possibly go wrong?.

That has nothing to do with whether or not it’s a good idea, just that I believe very little can go wrong I’m the context of Mossad oversight. I’m certainly not endorsing the deal.

This is the most eye-opening naive piece of rhetoric I've ever read on HN.

Mossad couldn't stop Iran from developing nuclear technology, only delay it. And that was with every country in the world agreeing to sanctions.

There is no chance they can stop the Saudis, especially since the Saudi's probably already have a technology transfer agreement with Pakistan.


> I’m certainly not endorsing the deal.

Why not? If nothing can go wrong, then on what grounds could you possibly object?
