This is interesting.
I posted this on the AK forum thread about it.
Some obviously rich Pakistani-American assclown makes a video that proves what exactly? So what, they make guns in the Pakistani Tribal Area. Is that news to anybody? He should be arrested & quickly deported upon entering the U.S. for his obviously pro-Taliban statements. If he loves “His People” so much why doesn’t he stay in Pakistan? I’d bet he is already back in the U.S. enjoying the benefits of our society. These are the same rights the Taliban or any Islamic extremist wants to take away with their cultist views of Islam’s Shara laws.
He is right on one thing though.
Nobody is going to tame the tribal areas. Not without a half million troops and hundreds of billions of dollars. Even then it would be 50/50 at best. Alexander the Great, Britain, and the Russians all failed. These people live to fight. I’m not saying they are any good at it though. It’s an engrained part of their culture. If there weren’t Americans or NATO around, they would be fighting their own government. Take away their government and put them in charge and they would go back to tribal warfare and killing each other. It’s been this way since well before Jesus walked the earth and it will go on long after we are gone. They have no interest what so ever in democracy, human rights, etc. All they want is to live in the fifteenth century with a car & cell phone.
I didn’t like the guy much either, he seemed just a little arrogant.:rolleyes:
couple things struck me about this…
- does he think that making ammunition and guns by hand is so damn unique? arent there probably millions of hand reloaders here in america?
(also, for the record, I saw machines in that video)…plus…there are hand made guns all over this country…they generally cost more…but apparently we should be scolded for our ability to master the assembly line…
-
the prices didnt seem THAT good…i mean, honestly, $50 bucks for that tokarev isnt much more than I would pay, knowing what it was, at a gun show…and AKs for $150…sure thats cheap…I dunno…I just expected Uzis for $20 the way he was talking it up…kind of like how my wife described shopping in Korea…blue jeans? 75 cents…
-
He also isnt familiar with the concept of “total war”…superpowers like Russia in Afghanistan and the US in Vietnam (and in Iraq to a certain extent) “lose” wars because they do not bring their entire arsenal to bear because of the political, environmental, socioeconomic, and geopolitical ramifications…but the fucking truth of the matter is that if we wanted to we could turn the entire damn Khyber pass into glass…it would be good if people remembered that sometimes…I am pretty moderate…in fact at times people on these boards think I am too liberal (im not, trust me, go talk to real liberals, its just when compared to some of you folks i look a bit tame
)…but assclowns like this guy make me think its about time to start distributing Hiroshima films just as a gentle “reminder”…kind of like the hulk…“Don’t make me angry…you wouldn’t like me when I’m angry”…
Someone needs to remind these fucktwits that, by comparison, we are just mildly annoyed at them…wait til you REALLY piss us off
