"JoeSpareBedroom" wrote in message ... We once sold weapons to Iran to help "protect" us. We gave weapons to the Taliban. We sell weapons to Pakistan. It's all very stupid when viewed in the context of history, which our current president seems to know nothing about. Lots of things seem "stupid" in the Monday morning quarterbacking of history. You have to remember that previous policies and actions were based on the conditions at that time and the inertia of foreign relationships don't change overnight. Eisboch Right now is not Monday morning. Conditions do not warrant selling more weapons to Saudi Arabia, many of whose citizens are as crazy and ****ed off as OBL, and are just aching for a shot at the royal family. If I'm not mistaken, Congress has to approve the sale. Surely the Democrat controlled Congress will have the same smarts you do. -- John H Apparently, they don't. It would be interesting to take a look at their corporate contributors. "The arms sale, which Congress has 30 days to review, would amount to $20 billion worth of weapons, including precision-guided bombs. It is "a pretty big package, lots of pieces," national security adviser Stephen Hadley told reporters on Air Force One." http://tinyurl.com/2gjepn Would it be better if they bought the weapons from the Russians or the Chinese? Then you'd be bitching about outsourcing more weapons building jobs. Loss of jobs does not justify selling weapons to the country we know is our primary enemy in the war on Islamic terrorists. Go back to sleep, John. Would it be better if they bought the weapons from the Russians or the Chinese? Are you too much a pansy to answer the question you skipped? -- John H Yes, it would be better. Then, we would have yet another reason to place their country under totally new management, permanently, including their oil wells, and execute every member of the royal family. On television. With the Russians or Chinese backing them? Did you put your head in the sand there? -- John H I wasn't in the military and I have more confidence in our military than you do. Did you penis fall off earlier this evening, little john? Our military take on their military? Is a nuclear war your answer to the problem? Your personal attacks aren't becoming, but they're the norm when your comments approach the high side of stupid. -- John H The bottom line is that you don't sell weapons to enemies. Period. |
