"Lull, the fact that you can't differentiate between your actual anti-Semitism and Troung's reasonable arguments (although I happen to disagree with him on some of it) is sad."
Well as long as you think it is reasonable even though you don't agree
Never minded if people agreed or didn't with me as long as they think I am reasonable and remain reasonable themselves
"It pisses me off when Israel sells to countries like China, although I have no problem with weapons sales to India."
For the time being America's relations with India are getting better so thats fine but China is a future enemy which is actively threatening a democratic nation. Selling to India and Singapore is one thing but open sales to a rouge state like Burma and an enemy like China is totally different. Israel also sold weapons to South Africa when the rest of the world put them under sanctions, the South African R-4 assault rifle is the Galil. Even France put them under sanctions
I'm just saying for a nation which should be enlightened on HR issues to keep friends like that...
"Aswell, how a country governs itself should be taken into account. After all, the US will not apply sanctions on France or any Western democracy, no matter who they sell weapons to."
Well France has sanctioned people (Libya, South Africa, Iraq for a few) and followed through on sanctions.
