The U.S. military is running out of ammunition in its concurrent self-declared conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq (I don’t call them wars because legally, they are not). So where does it go to restock? To Taiwan, of course:
Citing Taiwanese military sources, the United Evening News said Washington had made the request to acquire some 300 million 5.56-millimeter bullets for rifles for an estimated two billion Taiwan dollars (62.5 million US).
Funny how just a few years ago, it was we who sold arms to Taiwan. Who wants to bet we’re not buying it back at a loss?
Oh, and the Bush Administration was caught manufacturing propaganda disguised as journalism, again.
