Its Cheney's World We Just Live In It... Pt. I

Here is another story that makes little sense. We are selling 20,000,000,000.00 Dollars worth of advanced weapons to countries all over the Middle East.

Who makes these deals?!?

Well here are some bits from the McClatchy Story.

...it would include selling Saudi Arabia advanced weapons known as Joint Direct Attack Munitions, or JDAMs. JDAMs convert simple gravity bombs into accurate "smart" weapons.

Israel protested the proposed sale when word of it first leaked in April.

SO...

Israel has asked for access to the Air Force's most advanced fighter jet, the F-22 Raptor, and its stealth technology, which makes the aircraft more difficult to see on radar.


...

The weapons sales, however, are almost certain to be criticized by democracy and human rights advocates.


Dear Mr. Cheney, please count me in as a critizee, who doesn't like what he sees.

Constant H/T to the McClatchy Gang. When do you guys bring a newspaper into San Antonio?
