Israeli-American nabbed in Taliban weapons sting gets 25-year jail term[W:23]

Re: Israeli-American man caught in a sting operation trying to sell weapons to Taliba

Were the weapons to be used as a defense or an offense? I believe in equal playing fields, what I do not believe in is "our" government/media.
Thats not relevant to the law. Now...had he just worked out a deal with the current administration to sell to Al Qaida in Syria he would have been aces...
Bingo.

There's no word in English which adequately describes how stupid that is.
Hypocrisy describes this best in one word.

Really? Explain, in detail, the "hypocrisy." Keep in mind that "hypocrisy" actually has a definition.

You stated that I am stupid for being ok with someone selling weapons to terrorists. If you supported Bush or Obama, you are a hypocrite, because they supplied terrorists with weapons and it was ok. If you state that you do not support neither democrats nor republicans, then obviously I was an idiot for assuming you were, and I apologize in advance.

No, I'm saying "believing in" "even playing fields" -- when it comes to war -- is so stupid that there's no adequate word in the English language to encapsulate it. I don't know how you missed it; I bolded it for you.

You're ok with selling weapons to terrorists?
 
Re: Israeli-American man caught in a sting operation trying to sell weapons to Taliba

I'm glad the guy got a good, stiff sentence instead of just a wink and a slap on the wrist. Every weapon that greedy slut sold to the Taliban went to kill American soldiers and Afghan civilians who wouldn't kowtow to the terrorist masters.

It's amazing to me that everyone reading the OP didn't have exactly the same reaction I had.

When it comes to two dogs fighting, I prefer equal playing fields, you may prefer holocaust one way, yet I am being called an anti Semite, cruel, etc.
 
Re: Israeli-American man caught in a sting operation trying to sell weapons to Taliba

You're ok with selling weapons to terrorists?
I am ok with exterminating terrorists, and I understand that it starts with first identifying them:

And this could be the reason the people think this way about US establishment that you support:

I know. And, once again, it's so stupid that there's no adequate word in the English language to encapsulate it.

It is possible to have that reaction while simultaneously rejecting the agenda of those who wish to use it as a weapon against a people.

I pay attention to various poster's track record, myself.

How is posting articles from accepted mainstream legitimate sources attacking a people?

It is your track record that reveals your hateful agenda, not an individual posting.

If I ever came across that way I Opologies, I usually simply post articles from mainstream sources.

Then there will never been a winner.

Maybe the US can just disarm, and ship all of our weapons to countries who have less.

Then, when we are attacked at home, we can hold up our receipts and claim 'parity'!

Yea, that will work well for us.

Cripe!!!!

I too am at a loss for this drivel.

That is the whole point - there was never MEANT to be a winner if you look at the whole picture. the establishment WANTS people to keep fighting and killing each other, they PROFIT from it, and there is no need to make ME look like the bad guy who supports this.
 
Re: Israeli-American man caught in a sting operation trying to sell weapons to Taliba

It sure seems that way. Agencies and bureaucracies have a way of justifying their existence.

The truth is that the average American has a greater chance of being struck by lightning or killed in an automobile or train accident than he has of being the victim of a "terrist attack".

Why is it that we are told that the rule of law must be suspended to defend against the latter, but not the former?




What 'rule of law' do you need to defend yourself against being struck by lightning?

Quoted for common sense and disbelief.

Lord have mercy.

No help is required, as you are doing an excellent job by yourself.
