I really don't think there are any secrets or weapons of any level that have not been purposely given away/allowed to sneak away to our enemies by Obama.

The Clintons have been in bed with the Chinese since the 90’s.

Someone posted a comment on the youtube that they were bound for South Korea in a legit shipment. No idea.

Saw it. Apparently the missiles were legitimately being sold to South Korea by Germany, not China.

Apparently, those were German Patriot missiles being sold to South Korea, another Patriot user. This was part of an arms deal between the two nations in ‘07. The South Koreans made a screw up with the shipping company, and the the missiles, though South Korean bound, were being routed through Shanghai.

Can’t South Korea buy them direct from Raytheon? Why buy them through Germany?

This is why I love FreepLand...especially when we can correct one another nicely. Thanks, ya’ll.

There have been some really nasty people yelling at each other lately on here.

Oh my gosh man! Our entire government and corporate world have been in bed with the Chi-coms.

Politicians receive campaign cash and perks in return for policy favorable to corporations in regards to China. More campaign cash and perks from corps to help keep politicians in office. See how the game is played?

Putting more into the pockets of the fat cat politicians and the fat cat corporate elites. Round and round it goes.

To hell with America. To hell with national security. To hell with our standard of living. To hell with the American constitution.

Money and power, that's what this is all about. If you believe any different, your naive as hades.

Primary time. If you're not with 'em, you're against 'em. It'll get better again later. At least it did after the primary was settled in '08.

I recall how awful the '08 primary turned out, when even Giuliani would look good by today's standards.

Sort of off the subject but .. I'm an X-Files fan, and it occured to me last night while watching season 3, episode 5 (so many more to see ... mmm ), that the Hitlery seemed to don pantsuits coinciding with Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson).


Now those 999 FBI files and all of the Hitlery's actions seem to fall into place.

She's a wanna'be FBI agent ... which explains her animosity towards LEOs (and others) while in the White house ... such a frustrated bitch.


OK .. I return you to your regularly scheduled program.

As best I figure, it was due to cost. Germany had large stockpiles of Cold War era Patriots left over after the collapse of the Soviet Union, so the South Koreans likely decided to try and get those missiles instead for a lower price.

From what I read (take that with a grain of salt) the guidance package and software was an older model, and not what you could pick off the shelves, brand new from Raytheon.
