It's a G** Damn Arms Race...

For both sides:
FoxNews

This is bad... VERY bad. Bush, instead of solving the problem, is now going to create a frickin' arms race in the Middle East. The LAST thing that the WORLD needs. If I were Britian, Israel, any other Euro country, Russia, China even, I would be calling Bush like crazy and telling him "NO, don't be that damned stupid!" Even though China and Russia can/will profit from it, they don't want a war, especially a World War, to go on (I would hope no one wants that).



The more and more the days progress, the more and more one word comes to mind - draft... Never thought I would say this, but I'm hoping a strong Democrat wins that'll use diplomacy AND force, because this world is getting way out of control and is getting ready to burst...

a strong Democrat...

That's a myth.

Good post......

I'd oppose selling a pocket knife to a boy scout, if little george thought it was a good idea.

Cheers.

One can hold hope though right??? If there is a Republican that fits my criteria, I'll vote for him too... Until then, they are just as rank-&-file and everyone else rigth now.

Get Serious.

There already is an arms race in the Middle East, and Bush didn't start it.

I miss the Iraq-Iran war. Let's bring it back. It at least keeps those crazy bastards busy.

As long as we aren't mixed up in the actual fighting, let them do what they have been doing for the last 1,500 years . . . killing each other off. If we didn't sell them weapons they would just use Russian and Chinese stock.

I was meaning it as an escalation... this is just the tip of the iceberg.

Give them all boomerang-type programmed nuclear weapons and be done with it.

Pls expound.

20 billion $ in arms sales spread over 10 years ain't exactly chicken feed; but, according to what I'm reading, we're currently spending something like 12 billion $ a month in Iraq ??

Where's the iceberg ??

[JuBru]

Tip of the iceberg being not every county in the area has been building up beyond normal... That'll be changing...

O.K.

But, I hardly see how you can blame bush for that. Seems to me that iran is the culprit.

[JuBru]

I'm not blaming him... he's just adding fuel to the flames...

Guess I used the wrong choice of words in that first post.
