Stain's homegrown aerospace technology. Not sure if this is what they intend to sell Chavez.

We are not at war with them now. But he is a guy we should keep a close eye on. Right now he is Castro the Lite version. But he has been getting rather cozy with China and Russia.

Not sure what aircraft Stain wants to sell Chavez, but if they do not have American components, not sure what value they have.

I think what you mean to say is you don't have a clue

10 CN-295 light transports

2 CN-235 MPA patrol aircraft

Useful little aircraft, but only would worry about them

Exactly. Watch and be prepared to deal with the problems before they become problems.

Yes, but the brokeback image was totally uncalled for!

I have been around long enough not to be concerned about a brokeback ostrich humper claiming I am clueless. FR is all about informing those less informed, without copping an elitist attitude.

FYI. Even if you don't ping me when you flame me, I can still see your post.

I agree.

And Ostrich Boy, your flame was uncalled for. What did he do to you?

It was not a flame. If you have something constructive add, go ahead. Calling me clueless when I admitted I didn't know the facts is not useful.

I concede that my terse attitude may have been uncalled for as a response to operation clinton cleanup's original #27, in itself

However in the light of the subsequent posts where he and another poster made ill-informed speculation on the details, decideded the anything the Spanish made would be crap anyway, and whatever it was, the manly us of A could and should blow them away - there comes a point where "You haven't a clue" is justified.

It's a tinpot dictator buying a dozen light tarnsports/patrol aircraft - end of story.

It's just the socialist, anti-American government of Spain supporting the socialist, anti-American and soon to be Stalinist government of Venezuela.

You should have posted that in the first place, thus not revealing your animosity towards the "manly us of A".

No animosity. just the observation that there is too much bluster on this thread.

OK not really by you. I should have recognised you were led astray by bad company and posted my original to someone else.

That is the nature of FreeReepblic... Public discourse is not pretty or factual, but sure beats no information at all. It's up to the end user to decide what is important.
