| Ostrich, I don't get many know-it-all hecklers. They are almost all banned. But thank you for your apparent service. Feel free to nitpick with HotAir.com and others who say Soros is heavily invested in a subsidiary of Embraer...

3 days ago – George Soros has a major shareholding in Harbin-Embraer, the Chinese subsidiary of Embraer. Soros is also a major share holder of ...In fact, the HotAir artice sheds MORE light on this topic... Oddly enough, Embraer has been in the news lately. Less than three weeks ago, the Brazilian airplane builder announced that the SEC had begun a probe — for corruption...Corruption? I am SHOCKED that someone dealing with Obama might be accused of corruption! The going rate for kickbacks on contracts in Illinois used to be 5%. I'd bet Brazil offered even better than that, while Beechcraft probably offered Zero zero. It seems that to you, your 'stupidly' friend can do no wrong.      A jet is a jet as far as the Afghans are concerned. Any of them can be retro-fitted with bombs or missles, and Afghans are good at 'retrofitting stuff'. And the US Navy already has its own jets. I 'cc'ed almost everyone on this thread previously, plus others I thought might be interested, but I tried to not address or 'cc' you because you looked like an argumentative jerk. Now you've removed all doubt. Please do not address me again. Afghanistan is a landlocked country that is about 900 miles from the ocean. The 'Navy' does not 'need' these for Afghanistan. Your pal already single-handedly killed OBL, so 'that' war is almost over. (Now, on with the next one). These jets will be given away as a parting gift, so they hardly have to be state of the art. |
