WikiLeaks cables: US agrees to tell Russia Britain's nuclear secrets
The Telegraph ^ | February 4, 2011 | Matthew Moore

Posted on 02/05/2011 7:15:07 AM PST by Matthew James

The US secretly agreed to give the Russians sensitive information on Britain’s nuclear deterrent to persuade them to sign a key treaty, The Daily Telegraph can disclose.

Information about every Trident missile the US supplies to Britain will be given to Russia as part of an arms control deal signed by President Barack Obama next week.

Defence analysts claim the agreement risks undermining Britain’s policy of refusing to confirm the exact size of its nuclear arsenal.

They need to make a statement such as recalling their ambassador. Let our people know as well as the rest of Europe that so long as he’s president we will be viewed as just another country and not as a friend.

Since the spineless repubs won’t do anything our options are becoming few and ugly.

Did Obama ONLY sell out America and the UK?

Were other country’s secret information also given
to Russia?

What was the quid pro quo? Money? Sex? or was
that the deal for covering up Obama’s Kenyan birth?

How many allies HAS the Emperor/Pharaoh/Imam Obama
backstabbed so far, anyway?

When people say whatever he does makes no sense, I say it makes perfect sense. He’s simply not on our side.

Not only is he betraying the ally, but the flip is the American people. That is who he is betraying.

TREASONOUS for Americans, SEDITIOUS with his MB brethren.

I’m beginning to think we mis-judged Wiki Leaks. Maybe they are on to something.

We all know that the liberal media will just ignore this, however, if the British make this front page news and demand answers from POTUS then CBS, ABC, NBC would have to acknowledge his blunder. When Obama is done we'll have no friends in the world. I thought he was going to fix all our diplomatic problems. He must think that the world will like us more if we're weak. God Help us!

Again...

Maybe Ramesh Ponnoru is correct...

This is another example of Obama's distain for "Colonial England", i.e. another "Up Yours" just like sending back the bust of Churchill?

The question I have his and I need Freeper Historian's Help on...

How did The UK help in the formation of the State of Israel?

My gut tells me for the anointed one, as a "twofer, to stick it to the UK and Israel in one move, but I need the historical context...

My question is, did Russia ask, or did Obama just offer? I wouldn’t put it past him.

I cannot find the source wikileak document but did find this from:

http://www.professionalsoldiers.com/forums/showthread.php?p=374058

” I was a ‘visitor’ to the SALT/START/CFE talks (the land of officially non-official ‘Non-White Papers’) in Vienna in 1990 while in Bonn and directly involved again in 1991-1993 while in the USEUCOMs primary organization responsible for implementing the terms of the CFE agreements - complicated does not begin to describe what goes on with such matters.

Whether somebody like the UK is a signatory or not, if we alter our stockpile by providing them with an item which falls under the ‘umbrella’ of the terms of such an agreement, we may be obligated to provide a by-item listing (maybe just a SN with little associated info or even by type or ???) to show we’ve removed it from our inventory control.

As to exactly what any of that may entail here and whether or not the UK agrees/agreed to it or not “

OBAMA MAY HAVE FOUND A CLAUSE THAT ALLOWS HIM TO SELL OUT ALLIES.

“OBAMA MAY HAVE FOUND A CLAUSE THAT ALLOWS HIM TO SELL OUT ALLIES”

Or, perhaps Putin found it, and obama happily went along?

I wonder if the Globalist NutJobs still want to execute Julian Assange?

Assange, obviously, is not the real problem.

More and more....the WikiLeaks reveal much about Obama and his Admin. Seems like its the Obama Supporters who are Anti-Birthers who want Assange’s head....anything to protect Obama...the Globalist NutJob creed
