:rolleyes:  Might as well give the Nazis credit, too, since a lot of the 'Czech' armaments were Nazi production.

Whoever designed them is irrelevant. The Nazis didn't sell Israel weapons. The Czechs did, and it would be reasonable to assume their Soviet masters had something to do with that.
On the other hand the US was perfectly happy watching how the Arabs enjoyed material superiority thanks to Brit armament and decided to join the embargo.

If socialized medicine is good enough for our military and elderly, it's good enough for me.  :bowler:

If our medicine is an example of what socialized medicine would be, we're all fucked.
I had a good laugh at that one too.  We don't even get to see doctors when we're sick.  We have socialized health care for the military, for veterans, and for indians on reservations and what they all have in common is that the health care is famous for being absolutely craptacular.

You have to ignore the dishonest rhetoric and focus on the House bill which he has already endorsed.  It is as socialist as you could possibly make health care.
They're nationalising all the hospitals and establishing a National Health Service with cradle to grave care free at the point of need? :o :w00t:
Let's bomb Russia!

I don't think you can expect such a rational solution out of the US Congress.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Are you going on anything more than an assumption?

Why'd the Soviets always use the Czechs in the Mid-East?  Nasser's 1955 deal was with Czechoslovakia too :mellow:
