Potentially, because of the promise of being able to unleash a far more devastating weapon if they wait for its development to be completed.

Lack of finish?

They (radicals, NOT muslims) are an illogical breed...once they have the anihilation button, the rest of their weapons become irrelevant. Why kill a few hundred when in time they can kill hundreds of thousands?

I, along with you and everyone else, do not know exactly what the future holds. That being said though, I do not and cannot put anything past them...nor can you.

It seems as though you want to give them the benefit of the doubt.....which I fully understand but cant any more...because that worked out well 8 years ago and beyond didnt it?

they changed the rules...no one else.

The only benefit of the doubt I'm giving anyone is that they (meaning the people that run the show in Iran) are not quite as hell-bent for certain death as you seem to think they are.

Is anyone else getting a sense of deja vu here?

"Nation X in the middle east is stockpiling weapons and gearing up to kill us all and we have to stop them now now NOW".

Those guys weren't from Iran.

If you say so...they seem to say otherwise with both their actions and their words. Yes you are correct...I should doubt their will to kill. Or not.

So what? Their beliefs are identical...no? I mean the actual leader of Iran has openly expressed the complete and utter anihilation of Israel...should I believe him or not?

Well this isn't really going anywhere.

I don't think the kooks running Iran are leadfooting it towards a nuke so they can blow up Israel, and therefore kill themselves and everyone else in their own country.

They talk a big game, but if everyone who talks a big game was taken seriously we'd all be dead.

That's not true. Anyone who's "beliefs were identical" with the crazies on those airplanes would be out there doing crazy stuff. They'd be walking the walk.

You know, I wonder what Chinese equipment is made out of too. You gotta wonder if it's all made to the same "strict" quality control standards as the rest of their products....as in "hey, this LOOKS like a kevlar vest, and it's half the price!!!! It''ll do!!!!"

I've worked on US military contracts before for steel products, and their QC documentation is some of the strictest codes I've ever worked with. I've also bought (and still buy) a lot of steel from China, and it's hit and miss at best.

Not saying it's going to decide a US/China showdown, but from what I've seen of their products it's probably going to reduce their effectiveness.

I get what you're saying, and I think the Western militaries have an edge in technology. However, Chinese mentality would have them keeping the best stuff for themselves, and export the crap
China has a large army, and it would not be realistic to expect every unit to have the best stuff. However, there are units in every branch of the military that is "favoured" and they'll be the ones to recieve the absolute best in everything.
