Default Sudan blames Israel for Khartoum arms factory blast

I find it strange Israel is not commenting on the allegations:

Quote:
Speaking to reporters in Khartoum, Sudan's Information Minister Ahmed Belal Osman said: "We think Israel did the bombing.
"We reserve the right to react at a place and time we choose."

The problem is that no one will ever hold Israel accountable. They can do pretty much anything they want.

Just like most of other the countries in the Middle East and North Africa.

It's only a shame that the IDF stopped at one plant considering what Khartoum uses those weapons for. But I'm sure Norinco will be happy to provide replacements until its rebuilt.

Well the gun shop owner which was american probably made out pretty good on the mark up, so have you bothered to look on the back of your computer or that I phone, then you can get back with me about that statement you made. Back in the day the 45 cost me 275 bucks new and back then their wasn't any US manufacture making ak 47s and they don't rust.

What do my morals have to do with yours? Whether I support them or not has nothing to do with whether you should.

Besides unlike computers and phones (btw mine is a panasonic, ie Japanese not Chinese) you have a choice to buy American made firearms and you didn't.

So I ask again, how does it feel to support communism and slave labor? And how does it feel to help put your fellow countrymen out of work?

On Monday we still had summerly 20°C in Düsseldorf, on Sunday temperatures are expected to reach -2°. Tel Aviv has 25° today with hitting 30° on Sunday.
The damned Israelis are stealing our heat!

I don't find it strange at all if they show no proof. They have to bring more to the table than just allegations by an "information minister", for example radar recordings. It is also hard to imagine Israeli fighter jets would go unnoticed by Egypt and Saudi-Arabia. So if Israel did this, they did this in coorporation or at least tolerated by them, something that doesn't fit into the limited view of the "blame Israel for everything"-crew.
