Britain Signs Nuclear Deal with China

Comment on this article

“David Cameron will this week sign a landmark deal with China, thrusting the communist nation into the heart of Britain’s civil nuclear industry. Under the controversial accord, Beijing will buy a large minority stake in Britain’s first new atomic reactor in 20 years. The investment will help EDF Energy of France, which will lead the project, cover part of the mammoth £24bn cost. The Chinese are also expected to help bankroll a second EDF plant at Sizewell on the Suffolk coast. In return for its multibillion pound injection, Whitehall will give China its blessing to construct its own prototype nuclear reactor in Bradwell, Essex. The plant would be the first Chinese-designed and operated facility in the West” (The Sunday Times, October 18, 2015).

Bible prophecy has long warned of Israel’s demise due to its rejection of His laws: “The alien who is among you shall rise higher and higher above you” (Deuteronomy 28:43). Also, “A nation whom you have not known shall eat the fruit of your land and the produce of your labor” (v. 33). Giving control of its nuclear infrastructure to “a nation they have not known” worries even the general public in Britain. God warned that at the end of the age, Britain, the descendant of the tribe of Ephraim, would act like “a silly dove without sense” (Hosea 7:11).
