And they were accidentally labelled fireworks? Just like Fast and Furious was a botched operation? Sure, sure, sure...

[thesaleboat]

Yesterday it was said that they were being shipped to South Korea?!

[yobid]

I met a German girl from England who went school in France and we danced the Mississippi at a Alpa Cappa dance.

I wasn’t me.

[Portcall24]

The o had directed they be shipped to China so Customs could find out where they eventually were headed. ATF had advocated sending them directly to the drug cartel in Mexico but were overruled.

And the beat goes on...

How did these get out of our inventory in the first place?

[Red Badger]

Sounds like a regular fun day at the UN.....................None dare call it treason.......................

What did Obama know,and when did he stop knowing it...

This story just doesn’t make any sense.

A shipping container doesn’t have a description of what’s inside of it on the outside.

Obviously, the shipping company knows who the shipper, consingee and notify party is. Vessels aren’t just loaded with unknown containers and then discharge them wherever.

The author’s fascination with the vessel’s flag, crew, owner, and ports of lading and unlading indicates to me that he’s not very familiar with maritime cargo.

Under normal circumstances, I’d think that was a fringe comment. These days..., not so much.

Ya just never know.

I tend to doubt it, but I sure wouldn’t talk about it in absolutes.

I first confused guanidine with guanine, the nucleic acid. Guanidine is derived from guano. More better lining through chemistry!

[neverdem]

More better lining through chemistry!

Oh my peepers!

More better living through chemistry!

Hell, that cat was probably out of the bag when the Israelis sold Patriot technology to the Chinese when Clinton was President.

It's all about "sharing." It's good to "share," isn't it?

[null and void]

a Ukrainian crew, which ended up spending a good deal of time answering questions from stern officials with lots of vowels in their names.

Had only the crew been Kosavar. They could have redistributed the vowels, just to be fair...

[meatloaf]

I've always been a big supporter of sharing. Playing catch is an example.

[GeronL]

This story keeps changing.

South Korea is not China.

Which is it?

[GeronL]

What did Obama know,and when did he stop knowing it...

That's a great line. Someone should suggest this to the talk radio hosts and GOP candidates.

... but I still blame the French.

[Dudoight]

Thanks for the laugh.

The real question is WHO sold these missiles to China?

[DTogo]

Iran gets a drone and China gets Patriot missiles.

Merry Kwanza from Mordor-on-the-Potomac!

[X-spurt]

The “real” story ain’t changing, the party posting thread changed it to China. Also the original story said nothing about shipment being labeled “fireworks”.

The German military said they legally sold them to South Korea. Its the Finns and neverdem that are all fussed up over nothing.
