Of course we don't sell weapons to whackos. No-one does.
"WE" only sell weapons to friendly countries, countries which because of their geographical position and beliefs are bulwarks against the rising tide of Communism / Islamic Fundamentalism / Anti-Americanism / Frenchism
Etc...
WE fully understand that such countries (like Nazi Germany, Iraq, Colombia, Iran, Guatemala, Panama, Korea, Vietnam, China) have to curb certain personal freedoms because of the situation they're in, but the leaders aren't really ALL THAT BAD? Are they? And they ARE against the same things we're against, aren't they? So certain countries (at certain times) "
should be supported, and their defence capabilities improved.
It's the right thing to do, isn't it?
