LONDON, Feb 24 (Reuters) - Iran is close to a deal with China to purchase anti‑ship cruise missiles, according to six people with knowledge of the negotiations, just as the United States deploys a vast naval force near the Iranian coast ahead of possible strikes on the Islamic Republic.
The deal for the Chinese‑made CM‑302 missiles is near completion, though no delivery date has been agreed, the people said. The supersonic missiles have a range of about 290 kilometres and are designed to evade shipborne defences by flying low and fast. Their deployment would significantly enhance Iran’s strike capabilities and pose a threat to U.S. naval forces in the region, two weapons experts said.

Iran has a right to defend itself.[/quote]

We have a right to punch hard before they can.[/quote]

Actually we don’t-  Do people not know this?[/quote]

Keep wringing your hands. This is about survival.

Whose survival? To exist as a sovereign nation, Israel has to take care of its own survival. American taxpayer should not be on the hook for survival of any other country be it countries in Europe, Israel or any others. Our people are filing medical bankruptcies while our treasury is being looted for wars. [/quote]

Yes, and 17% of every dollar spent in the U.S. is spent on medical.  [u]Not every tax dollar. Every dollar.[/u] Higher than any other country in the world by far.

Whose fault is that?  You wanted Uncle Sam to take over one-sixth of the economy with 2,000 page legislative bills written by the DNC.

So don't whine now.  We're living the health insurance  "nirvana"  :roll:  YOU created.[/quote]

You’re right; other countries have the government provide healthcare altogether at a lesser cost.  I’m happy to move to that system.[/quote]

I'm happy to stop you from any more Grand Plans.  You always screw it up and do not take human nature and human character into account.

You want it, YOU pay for it.  All the ponzi scheme entitlements from FDR, LBJ, and Barack Obama are collapsing, albeit slowly. That math was never going to work.[/quote]

I simply want what we happily subsidize for Israeli citizens.

Healthcare funded by government
Sick leave for everyone
Family leave for everyone
Housing supports
Government funded education

You’re happy to subsidize the Israeli way of life, why can’t we have it for ourselves?

Why can't you do this for yourself? Socialism never ends well.[/quote]

american tax payers fund this for Israel- why? why are we borrowing money from China, bankrupting our own citizens to kill Arabs and pay for healthcare, rent, education for Israelis??? why?????[/quote]

Actually, our govt borrows by far the most money from American citizens. Why should govt pay for your healthcare? Don't you work. Do you have insurance? Why is it govt's responsibility to pay your rent? Don't you work. Govt already pays for your education through your property taxes (or rent through which your landlord uses to pay their property taxes). If you want the govt to pay for everything for you then move to a socialist country.[/quote]

So what's it called when the US government pays for everything for another country? A gift? [/quote]
