End The Arms Embargo??

China claims the international arms embargo is political discrimination. France and Germany Agree...and I suppose if you ignore the facts, namely, China is flush with cash from exports while France and Germany have been in an economic recession for years, I'm just being a stick in the mud.

Sure...let's let FR and DE lift the ban.

China said they wouldn't buy inordinate amounts of arms. Just ignore the recent billions spent on Russian fighters, ships and submarines.

Don't worry, the Europeans assure us they'll monitor China's arms purchases, via non-binding code of conduct. Hey! Just like they did with Sadam Hussein during the embargo of Iraq, and the Oil for Food program!
