The bush team’s Middle East ally did not sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty
The Bush team’s Middle East ally could do anything it liked with yellowcake, if it could acquire some. If it could acquire yellowcake it could build a nuclear bomb without reference to the NPT. Since the Bush team’s Middle East ally IS in the Middle East that would mean that significant quantities of yellowcake would need to come to the Middle East. Could 560 drums of yellowcake come to the Middle East without alarming those whose job it was to “care for the NPT”? It did!
You might think that a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty would not “look the other way” if a significant shipment of yellowcake went to a country that was not a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty.The Bush team, in “fixing” the problems of the Middle East, would certainly fix that one – RIGHT?
If per-chance yellowcake did go from a signatory of the NPT to a non-signatory of the NPT, you would think that would be a miscarriage of NPT rules – RIGHT?. A signatory to the NPT should NOT provide yellowcake to a non-signatory to the NPT – RIGHT?
Can the signatories obey the rules when they want to and ignore the rules when they want to?
The Bush team went to war over a phony yellowcake link between Niger and Iraq. But the Bush team will not likely address the loss of those 560 barrels of REAL yellowcake somewhere in the Middle East in 1968. See my earlier post at the below link:
