They are not gonna go nuclear. Saudi Arabia is a desert. They can get cheaper electricity from solar. It's just bullshit to make the case against Iran's nukes more digestible.
From the you can't make this shit up corner....
A nuclear deal with the Saudis is a good thing, says former GOP leader Eric Cantor
•Saudi Arabia has been in negotiations with the U.S. and other countries for several years in pursuit of a nuclear energy partnership, with the stated aim of diversifying its energy base.
•Riyadh has found a willing partner in the Trump administration, which has signaled far greater support for a deal than its predecessors.
•Months of escalating tensions between the kingdom and its regional arch-rival Iran have raised the stakes for any future nuclear plans.

I can point to three:
1. He was Black.
2. He was a nice guy.
3. He won the Nobel peace prize.
Obama spent the last 8 years abandoning our traditional allies, vilifying Israel and sucking up to Iran and Russia - only to watch the entire Middle East explode into violence, genocide and frequent use of chemical weapons along with one of the biggest refugee crisis we've seen since WWII.
Can anyone point to a single foreign policy achievement of the Obama years?

"The honor has also been bestowed to Russian President Vladimir Putin, British Prime Minister Theresa May and Trump’s predecessor, Barack Obama."
So one politician gives another politician an honorary award. Yawn.
