#1 Meanwhile, the Chicom textbooks STILL ascribe THE TWO KOREAS - yes, SOKORS + NOKORS, that means both of you - as being A DE FACTO PART OF CHINA.

#2 Just one, please. We will use it to appease the NorKs, who will sell it to Iran for $50.

#3 Why not. At least the South Koreans pay for 50% of US basing costs while Germany only pays for 21%.

#5 Global Hawk Complete set £180.00

Now that's a deal, Mike. I'll order a bunch up and resell them to the SKors. Hellfire, I will sell 'em to the Norks through a straw man. I'll make a fortune.

#6 Article: Washington apparently fears a possible transfer of technology, analysts say.

My feeling is that the Koreans probably want to build it as well, which means technology transfers. That was what happened with the F-15K. I doubt we're going to go for that with respect to the Global Hawk. I think we have to assume that anything Korea gets, China may eventually get. Even the F-15's may have been overdoing it.
