No, it was merged is not your merit, as you probably noticed, and did not bother me with extraneous query positions!

Why shouldn't the cargo ship be carrying weapons heading for Syria? Why should Israel be the only one allowed weapons in that region - because they're pro-west (when it suits!)? That makes it okay then, and why do we turn a blind-eye to the fact Israel is a 'secret' nuclear user but then try to ban any other country from using such technology - because we have it, our closest allies have it, and we don't want you to have it?

I'm not anti-semitic, but I just wish Israel would stop whinging about their history and live for the now, and the future for all in relative peace rather than being the spoilt little brat it so often is.

My goodness - I sound rather rantish. [/rant]

Not at all, an entirely sensible effect, the reasons are many political and military strategically possessed which were taken for a long time ago

merit???????
the fact is that it was merged as your cut and paste was a duplication.
Since it was merged then clearly there was substance.

Talking of merit, how is your copy and paste with no input habit any better than when you was just posting link after link after link with no input?

But anyway onto the posibility of this ship movement being an example of dodgy countries shipping weapons to dodgy countries to prop up dodgy regimes for their own dodgy political and financial goals.
In the past few days if you look at one of the many hard to find front page news articles which update reguarly, "call me dave" has been doing a tour of some slightly dodgy places, today he says it is wrong for countries to prop up dodgy regimes and help oppress their population and he is sorry his country does it.....its funny that a large proportion of his entourage are arms dealers wanting to sell weapons to the dodgy regimes to prop them up and help oppress their population.

If one of those 6'1" troopers drew his SIG Sauer or H&K 9mm on you, you would think differently...

"was a duplication" I asked for a merger because it would be easier, have your back free if you make a statement.
