[net.politics] Sweeden, and Selling them the rope...

The reason I posted the article about Sweeden shooting
down our missles was not to condemm Sweeden - they have
every right to do what they want to do.

However, I think it is inexcusable that we would spend
all this money on Defense and then sell the other side
the weapons and the technology to make our defenses
useless, all in the name of profit.  That's like a football 
team giving its opponent team all its game plans in
advance!

I'm all for countries asserting their independence and
"neutrality", but let's not shoot ourselves in the foot!
