#1 The begging bowl is moving from Washington to Beijing!

#2 We're taken out of the loop. Instead of the US borrowing money from China to give to the Paks, they can go direct. Works for me.

#3 That expedited fifty -- how expectedly will they fall out of the sky? American military material costs more and arrives less quickly, but won't lose bits on the runway.

#4 'Speed up'= more crashes? :)

After dealing with Chinese suppliers of manufactured goods, I can say I would never, ever fly in a chinese-designed, and Paki-built aircraft. It will crash so much, it will be called the 'Shaheed 1'.

#5 @ trailing wife, don't underestimate. Put it this way, most computer hardware is built in Asia, whilst software developed in the USA. Why does my computer crash but not blow up.

I do agree, but...
