| Message | No it is naturally much better to do it the Rightish way and start with namecalling and such things. But it is quite clear, we said that we feel that the current arms system is good and profitable. We sell to states whom the government approve, they need not to be close friends to us, but even if they are not our best friends or allies, they can be trustworthy and good nations to sell arms to, can they not ? |
