Those car-bombs are being freshly manufactured right under our noses, evidently... Demonstrating that car bombers don't require trade protected industrial production. We don't either.

So you want to wind up like Iraq?

You have trouble staying with the discussion. This was about trade protectionism, remember. Iraq didn't get the way it was because of trade protectionism or a lack thereof.

WWII style military production is not required to deal with car bombers, and it is not required to deal with nation states (because of my earlier point that modern warfare of that type is too rapid to ramp up production).

You have not provided any argument contrary to my points. Smart remarks about me "wanting to wind up like Iraq" are not an argument in favor of trade restrictions.
