Trump's believers are proof of the old saying: You can fool all the people some of the times, some people all of the time, but you can't fool all the people all of the time.
But even some of those in yellow are now slowly migrating into the last category. :)
Pretty sure the Rafale is made by Dassault (which already has a Montreal office, BTW). Rafael is an Israeli defense builder. As for ITAR, unless I am mistaken, the only ITAR item in the Gripen is the GE gaz turbine. I know it's a redesign matter, but if the US blocks such a sale, then, were I...
Yes. But not "large warehouses" of "materiel". Unless we have a different definition of "materiel". To me, that's always had a connotation of military prefabricated spare parts. The Cape's didn't carry that. They carried raw materials. And the extra stores for them were not that big.

Well, if they did, I completely missed them. I lived onboard CAPE BRETON for two summers in a row in the late 70's. That's where the officer cadets of the naval reserve lived while under training. And I crawled all over that ship and didn't see any "large warehouse". She had the usual stores you...
IMHO, that calls for getting the US ambasssador in to see the minister of foreign affair (whatever they now call her) to be given a formal letter of reprimand to deliver to the president of the US.

But in my book a pardon means you are still a convicted felon, unless the pardon was specifically referenced to a miscarriage of justice.
IIRC, that was the plan but then someone wanted to load them up with Swiss knife mission kits and call them Afloat Logistic Support Ships, which then got confused with the "Big Honking Ships" of a certain general, and at the end of all that confusion, Treasury balked when the first bid from...
Seen. My bad. But the interpretation I have given has been the view of many employers I spoke with. I guess they figure what you do for them is not something that results from or is connected with his military service, which for most reservists is correct.
Yes. That one has always been a big headache for reservists. You are serving in the primary reserve, but your full time job is in research for a pharmaceutical company. So long as it's primary reserve service, you are OK because, when not serving on class A, B or C (i.e. when you are NOT doing...
Actually, I find them closer to these uniforms, of the Galactic Empire:

Who knew that two evil empires could have similar uniforms?
