I strongly disagree with you that this war is all about making money for the oil and arms industries, but I agree with you that it is absolutely ludicrous that the UK is allowing Iraq to buy sophisticated military equipment at this time.

Thank you. The first saine reply on this thread.

I would certainly question why American corporations like Raytheon and Lockheed Martin are in on this event in Jordan WHILE Hussein's folks are there. I know the article states that the UK arms of Lockheed is there, but all in all it IS an American-based company.

The second question is why is the US Government allowing LH and Raytheon do an exhibit for this event? Shouldn't national security come before defense industry profit?

I don't think that this war is about money and oil, but it's absolutely insane that American companies are considering selling to our enemies.
