GHWB and the Israeli "theft" of US uranium. The article below seems to point them being handed the uranium by Bush in the early 1960s. We even know from what facility. Aaaaand, Mika's dad was involved in the coverup.
The Uranium One scandal was a rerun. GHWB had done it before, but was immortally more powerful the second time.
"Did Israel steal bomb-grade uranium from the United States?"
https://thebulletin.org/2014/04/did-israel-steal-bomb-grade-uranium-from-the-united-states/
"The evidence available for our 2010 Bulletin article persuaded us that Israel did steal uranium from the Apollo, Pennsylvania, plant of the Nuclear Materials and Equipment Corporation (NUMEC)."
"A bit of background is in order here. After a 1965 inventory, NUMEC was found to be missing about 100 kilograms of bomb-grade uranium, even after accounting for all processing losses. The close personal and commercial ties to Israel of the plant owners and operators raised suspicions that remained unresolved. The affair of the missing bomb-grade uranium was revived in 1976. The newly formed NRC was in the process of writing licensing regulations for commercial fuel firms-of which NUMEC was one-and had heard rumors of possible theft in the 1960s from NUMEC's Apollo facility.
"The NRC asked for a CIA briefing. Duckett startled the NRC group with CIA's conclusion that the missing uranium was in Israeli bombs. The NRC chairman informed the White House, and president Ford took an interest in the case. Ford's Attorney General, Edward Levi, discovered that the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC), the NRC predecessor nuclear licensing agency, had previously convinced the FBI not to open a criminal investigation into the material's disappearance. The AEC was concerned that the public revelation of the NUMEC case would draw attention to its lack of control over nuclear bomb materials in the hands of private firms, and thus undermine the commission's efforts to get nuclear power programs underway. In addition, then-FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover was not eager to get into a technical area with which his agents were unfamiliar. Levi gave the FBI its first instruction to investigate the material's disappearance, a decade after the 1965 inventory that was the object of concern. In fact, although they attracted little attention, NUMEC inventories through 1968 showed even larger unexplained losses."
"After the 1976 election, the Ford White House alerted the incoming Carter administration to the NUMEC affair. In December 1976, according to a July 1977 National Security Council memorandum, then-CIA Director George H.W. Bush briefed president-elect Carter on the case. Congress had been pressing for public disclosure of records of large unexplained losses of bomb-grade material (in government parlance, "material unaccounted for,"or MUF) from the government's nuclear weapons complex. The White House feared the story was sure to hit the headlines if there were any suggestion of Israeli theft from the NUMEC facility. And any disclosures about Israel's bomb program would of course have threatened the Carter administration's Middle East policies.
Carter instructed his national security advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski, to deal with the NUMEC matter in the context of the impending public release of MUF data. Brzezinski's staffers John Marcum and Jessica Tuchman posed questions to the CIA about the NUMEC affair. Ted Shackley, then-CIA's deputy director for covert operations, called Marcum on a secure line on July 28, 1977, to provide answers. Marcum's entire two-page description of the call in his memorandum to Tuchman is blanked out in the version just released by ISCAP. As noted in our earlier article, other evidence suggests that the next day Shackley briefed senior officials of the Energy Research and Development Administration (ERDA), the principal successor agency to the AEC. He told them that environmental samples taken by the CIA in Israel in 1968 contained highly enriched uranium, whose enrichment level was so high it pointed to the Portsmouth, Ohio, uranium enrichment plant as the source. Portsmouth was where NUMEC obtained uranium stock for its naval fuel products. We don't know whether this information is in the excised portion of Marcum's memorandum. We do however now have Marcum's unredacted conclusion: "The CIA case is persuasive, though not conclusive." Marcum preceded his conclusion with the pregnant observation, "At this point, despite the FBI clean bill of health, I do not think the president has plausible deniability.""
