A better policy would be to abide by U.S. arms export laws like the Arms Export Control Act that requires that U.S. arms transfers are used only for self-defense, and the Foreign Assistance Act that bars military aid and arms sales to countries that engage in patterns of systematic human rights abuses (like Columbia, Uzbekistan, Georgia, Nigeria and other "new" allies in our war on terrorism).
