Uggh, do we have to turn this into a middle east or to be more specific Israeli/Palastinian debate. But I guess with a topic like this it was only a matter of time.
Well, currently the US or Pentagon has threatened to place an arms embargo on Israel when they recently tried to sell weapons technology to China, who they had a diplomatic relationship with since the 1970s. Ironically enough this is going on while the US is now in the process of selling technology themselves, but that is aside from the point.
This leaves the Israeli arms industry no other choice but to heavily depend on US support and them as a customer. However if the IDF starts utilizing
this gun more it would at least convice the US government to start to stop sending heavily discount M16 and M5s.
Those camps are a great program but until things camb down a bit over there, they wouldn't recieve that much coverage let alone be that effective. It is also better for diplomatic reasons if they remain private.
The thing the US government has to down to cut down on support for Israel is rather than look at China as a future enemy sooner, they should see that they share a common interest against a common enemy. And so permit IMI to share some technology with China, the PLA might give them some tech in tern. This also might send a message to the Arab nation that the US is indeed willing to work with them rather than feel like they are forcing to dictate them.
Muslim extremist will always hate the US along with other western nations no matter what we do, it is their agenda. What we can do though is convince people there is another way to get their nation and culture recognition plus prosperity on their own terms that doesn't include irraticating the other. Just as Palastinians should get the message that Israel doesn't want to intrude upon them, should focus on creating their own nation rather than devoting their resoarces to annihilating the other and should come to learn that the terrorist organizations they habor are not for the interests but rather selfishly for their own.
In this situation it is ignorance that breads the hatred, knowledge can help us see past it. At least we share that thought.
