Ahhh the perils pissing off your friends by spying on them and not respecting their privacy.

Chinese Military's Secret to Success: European Engineering

Even Israel is in on the act:

What else can we do to damage our reputation abroad?

Perhaps I missed it but I didn't see any reference to Israel in the posted link article.

Britain, France and Germany were prominently mentioned however.

Countries don't have friends, they have interests.

You were pretty quick adding that second link after I'd already posted there; kudos for effective scrambling.

Why wouldn't they? You think NATO is going to help us in an Asian conflict? This is an important question as the global epicenter is shifting to the Asia-Pacific region.

Sigh.

Are you really?

1. NOTE-theres no "edited" comment on the original post
2. NOTE-I am not the OP

And while I DO edit my comments regularly, its almost always to fix spelling or to add a PS, and that my edit comments reflect that.

PS-I added this ps, does my edit comment show to everyone else? Cause I do see it

Last edited by greywar; 12-30-2013 at 05:47 PM.. Reason: added a PS (2nd edit to move ps to bottom)

Israel has ALWAYS been selling US military techs to Russia and China. They've literally been doing it for decades. They're the single biggest leak we have.

And Britain sold weapons to Jordan who then used them on Israel during their 1967 attacks. So what.


Israel has an economy like everyone else. If they're not selling American tech then who cares. For some reason Israel can do no right. Russia and China are not enemies of the US as the US does Billions in trade with them. But if Israel sells something to them people go nuts. Israel is a high tech country and that's it. What is your allowable list of items Israel is allowed to sell to Russia & China?
