    indeed. i find it interesting how many people jump on the "well, the US used to blah, blah, blah" wagon.

    so that makes what china is doing right? not by a long shot.

    supplying weapons to folks involved in conflicts around the world might've come back and bitten us, might've been wrong but still doesn't excuse what china is doing. period.

    morality doesn't work on a sliding scale. if it was wrong for the US, france, whoever to do it in the past, it is equally wrong for china.

    It's the worldwide pastime. Instead of people actually working to change their own miserable lives for the better, it's more fun to point a finger and blame something for it.

    Of course, it's wrong. The point is that the original article is only giving half the story. Were you so shocked to find that Chinese-manufactured weapons were finding their way into Iran? Were you equally as shocked to see photos of Donald Rumsfeld with Saddam Hussein?
