Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

How long did they last before the Rebels/ISIS blew them up ?

Depends on how many TOW missiles the CIA hands out to their ISIS buddies....

"to the shores of Tripoli Syria.. (bum bum bum bum)"

If it is like Chinese products in this country it will be broken in about 3, 2, ....

[Trumpinator]

Compared to the surplus Soviet stuff the Syrians have these will seem reliable I am sure.

[for-q-clinton]

Not really true anymore. China makes many of the phones on the market that don’t break unless you drop them.

I have known of a country called Syria for all my life.

WTH country is #Syria?

They can simply return it to Wal-Mart for a refund or a replacement.

[alloysteel]

They look like a cheap Chinese knockoff of a Humvee.

You don’t think....

That now China will become our supplier of choice for our military hardware?

Maybe don’t do it as well, but they do it a lot more often.

[Trumpinator]

Good enough for Arabs.

“Syria” is Syria before 2010.

“#Syria” is what`s left of Syria now 2015.

Regardless of whether the equipment is good or bad, why is China sending them to Syria?

[Trumpinator]

I have read of a few of reasons:

A) The Chinese, like the Russians, suspect the Saudis and the Americans secretly back Muslim insurgents around the world to destabilize countries like China, India and Russia. In defending Assad the Chinese are defending the concept of the nation state order and against uprisings.

B) Other theory I hear is that if the Gulf pipeline goes through, that will mean the Europeans will be getting the oil resources China needs because selling to Europe would become easier. By blocking a Gulf pipeline to Syria the Chinese can still guarantee oil will flow to them from the Persian Gulf.

C) All The Above.

[RoosterRedux]

why is China sending them to Syria?

Saudi oil.

Other than wiping Israel and the U.S. off the map, that's Iran's goal.

China and Russia and Iran will build up their armies under the ruse of stabilizing Syria and once Syria is stable, they will turn their attention to Saudi.

I don’t see a picture?
