Apparently, profiting from war doesn’t bother these people of "peace" and "love". But then, has history given us a reason to think it ever did?

“The U.S. insisted that imports of the aging rifles could cause problems such as firearm accidents. It was also worried the weapons could be smuggled to terrorists, gangs or other people with bad intentions,” the official told The Korea Times.
Given the nature of the firearms (aging and becoming dilapidated), the crowd they appeal to (responsible gun collectors), and the opportunity to engage in FREE TRADE with a country we wanted to be ‘just like us’ …. what the hell is Obama’s problem?
Don’t tell me "oh…it wasn’t Obama, but rather someone else in his Admin…." b/c that’s bs…you all know the buck stops with the POTUS on such issues.
Why would Obama deprive people like me the opportunity to add an American-made and -used M1 Carbine to my collection? I’d like to hear from all the Obamanots who claim he is ‘pro-gun’ (or at least not anti-gun) too…
@FLSwampBoy: No references with your assertions? How about the one where Obama and Eric Holder have been seeking a new assualt weapons ban? … and get this… the reason = "it would help cut down on the flow of guns going across the border into Mexico" ~ Eric Holder
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=6960824&page=1
Assertions without references are rhetorical.
@furi0usfungus: "Hitting the streets" …where did that ad hominem come from? Propaganda? These weapons would not be sold to citizens directly, but rather to licensed FFL dealers who undergo rigorous background checks….and not the NICS crap either.
@Truth seeker: When you can jump OUT of the "the Govt knows what’s best for us" pool, we will begin to talk. LOL….what would a terrorist do with a dilapidated gun?! This is my point…these are merely collectors items!!!!!!!!
@prekinpdx: Good points…. except they don’t align with the reasons the US Govt gave to decline the exchange. …as I quoted. You’re reasons would be much more valid, yes, but the govt listed the aforementioned as their reasoning (according to sources, of course). Good answer though, thanks!
lol @ EviL Liberal: "old Russian rifles" and M-1 Carbines and Garands are not one of the same. ….I take it you’re not a collector.

I guess Army generals from the old Bush Republican party have been putting bible verses on guns to the middle east. see http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/us-military-weapons-inscribed-secret-jesus-bible-codes/story?id=9575794
Has anyone seen if this stuff is on planes, ships, bombs and other stuff? Are they are Christian government now?

Just wondering what the general consensus is here in politics.
Obviously I believe that it makes it far more difficult to convince the rest of the world that we aren’t trying to impose our religion on the rest of the world. What say you?

U.S. Military Weapons Inscribed With Secret ‘Jesus’ Bible Codes
http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/us-military-weapons-inscribed-secret-jesus-bible-codes/story?id=9575794
Coded references to New Testament Bible passages about Jesus Christ are inscribed on high-powered rifle sights provided to the United States military by a Michigan company, an ABC News investigation has found.
The sights are used by U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan and in the training of Iraqi and Afghan soldiers. The maker of the sights, Trijicon, has a 0 million multi-year contract to provide up to 800,000 sights to the Marine Corps, and additional contracts to provide sights to the U.S. Army.
U.S. military rules specifically prohibit the proselytizing of any religion in Iraq or Afghanistan and were drawn up in order to prevent criticism that the U.S. was embarked on a religious "Crusade" in its war against al Qaeda and Iraqi insurgents.
How do you think this goes down in Muslim countrues and is this just not further evidence that Bush started holy wars in Iraq and Afghanistan?

The US military is using weapons that contain references to Bible verses. Yet, the warmongers continue to pretend that their War isn’t a Crusade. Besides the fact that this flagrantly violates that part of the 1st Amendment that has to do with the Separation of Church and State, this also surely is a flagrant violation of the teachings of the Prince of Peace. Jesus taught his followers to "turn the other cheek" and that their loyalty should be to the Kingdom of Heaven, not to the kingdoms of this world.
However, for the heretical form of "Christianity" practiced by the "Christian" Right, the War on Islam is obviously a Crusade. This is just the latest evidence of this fact. The "Christian" Right has certainly perverted Christianity at least as badly as Osama bin Laden has perverted Islam.

This is illegal and shameful, and this gun company should be fired. Also, the weapons need to be removed from military circulation. There is no question it’s a violation of the Constitution.

It’s here in this ABC News story:

Violation of church & state anybody? There are a whole lot of people in the military who either aren’t religious or belong to a different religion, yet they put their lives on the line like everyone else. Supposedly, they are fighting for a country that doesn’t try to push any one religion on people and doesn’t persecute religious minorities.

Is this evidence that the US is just participating in another chapter of the Holy Crusades? Because that’s what the terrorists seem to believe.
