Boeing got a yuge deal in Russia too. Via killarys state dept.
There is plenty of good money to be made selling the tools of the trade (apologies to Country Joe).
Thought that i just read somewhere that Iran just made a multi-billion dollar deal with Airbus.
This is crony capitalism at its worst. It's also why so many of the "neo-cons" who polluted the Bush administration and pushed that stupid war in Iraq are supporting Hillary Clinton.
