UK sells more arms to China...
Why do our allies arm our enemies...?

I forgot the US does the same...

http://news.scotsman.com/politics.cfm?id=323812005
"THE value of UK arms exports to China has more than trebled to more than £100m in the past three years alone, it emerged last night.

Lantos said Congress was united against "this degree of arrogant, in-your-face sales to a communist dictatorship of advanced military equipment". "

Gettin scarier!

Who is largest procurer of weapons in the world?

Uncle Sugar {formerly known as uncle Sam}

2. That would have been an excellent question to ask Prescott Bush
...back in the 1930's when he was running the bank which bankrolled Nazi Germany in their building of the Nazi war machine right through to 1942. Had FDR not stepped in and stopped Prescott Bush, that bastard would have continued right on selling to the enemy.

5. Don't forget
the failed fascist coup against FDR in '34. Planned by such upstanding citizens as Prescott Bush, Junius Pierpont Morgan (yes, him of the JP Morgan bank, now JP Morgan Chase), and the DuPont familiy (of the DuPont chemicals/biotech comany). All Hitler supporters and fierce opponents of the "communism" of the New Deal.

It only failed because they picked the wrong general for post-coup military dictator: gen. Butler, who ratted on them and thus averted the coup.

6. Second largest supplier to China is Israel, another US ally
Edited on Sat Apr-02-05 06:50 AM by muriel_volestrangler
For years, China's trade has been dominated by Russia. Israel is China's second-largest supplier, and its role has particularly troubled American experts because it specializes in technologically advanced equipment, like drone aircraft.

It's all about profit. That's what Europe's arms manufacturers want, and the EU governments like exports - of any kind. The US doesn't like Israel doing it too, but it still happens. When big European companies get a chance to make profit that US companies don't, they like it even less.

8. US armed Germany in pre WW I Guess who was on the deal??
Why Sam Bush of course with his connections in war dept.

Kevin Phillips wrote of this in book "American Dynasty" ..he outlines the bush family history of treason..and its facts..

His book should be required reading for all who vist DU or any freedom loving forum..


Bush crime family ALWAYS near the crime
NEVER the indicted criminal..


How many times do they tempt fate???


Life is a beach. Lets keep it that way.
