lets not give em anything and lose one of our strongest allies in the middle east.  especially (keeping it real here folks) war with iran is very likely to happen.  stop think right or wrong here.  this is about iran, plain and simple.  its a pretty smart thing to do when you know there is a shit storm waiting to happen and you have more guns on your side.

EDIT:lol
lol I've so got to find a picture of a Palestinian guy hauling a JDAM around on his back, precision weapons tbh

But I also sometimes wonder what is wrong, considering that next to Israel, the Saudis are probably the best ally out there. Remember where the Gulf War was launched from along with all the sorties.

Screw those un-democratic, sharia law, sand-muslims with a monarchy. They're part of the axis of eve-il I tells ya.

Seriously though, I hate SA. (Saudi Arabia not South Africa). It's annoying how the UK/US treat such countries yet bitch about other countries. Why the fuck do they bitch so much about democracy in the Middle East and in Eastern Asia and Pakistan and fuck knows a shit lot of South American countries. Yet nothing is ever said about SA.

It's all messed up and I can't be arsed getting annoyed over it

I'm sure that there was absolutely no thought into selling weapons to the Saudis, nor was there any political bargain as part of the deal...

Well, having pin point accuracy weapons to drop with low tech aircraft is as senseless as me having a ferrari without gasoline.

The problem is that europe intends to sell eurofighter 2000 to saudi arabia!! So basically they will have airpower equivalent to europe!!

I just hope eventually europe and the US don't get fucked for being stupid, it's not a big deal yet but if we start to see saudi arabia buying aircraft carriers and high tech bombers.

World leaders are just insane.

Not really, but I still wonder how it will turn out, I guess it depends on whoever fires the first shots, even so, the easiest way of getting out of the situation is for saudi arabia taking a neutral standing (if possible)

Imagine this situation. You don't like your neighbour and he doesn't like u. So i say i'm gonna talk to you both and your other neighbours to fix this but in the process i sell some ak-47's around. Am i being honest calling it peace talks? lol It looks more like business talks, and why would i want peace if i can sell a lot more if everyone's angry with each other.

Total bullshit goverments don't want peace

I don't know, but selling weapons while you are supporting peace talks sounds a bit hypocrite.

It is still the national airline.  It is still operated(HQ) out of Buenos Aires.  All you guys do is give the money to Iberia.  Quite sad really when your national airline gives most of its money to a Spanish group.

Marsans not Iberia.  Either way, it's not a state run airline.  Your whole argument went down the toilet.

It belongs to Marsans Group, so get yours out of the arse, m8.  It doesn't belong to Iberia anymore.  You work in the airline industry?  No shit.
