1) Sucking up to the US (possibly as per [possibly non-explicit] treaty obligations).
2) If the Pentagon can be bamboozled, what makes you think the furriners' militaries couldn't?
- max_ 5y agoWhat do you mean by "bamboozled"?
- readonthegoapp 5y agoI'm assuming they mean that the Pentagon buys trash regularly. The most expensive trash on the planet. I'd agree with 1) -- 'Sucking up to the US'. Just an extension of the Pentagon system - a way to subsidize the US war industry, with all the lovely benefits (for at least a few Americans, like me/us) that brings.
- CRConrad 5y ago> What do you mean by "bamboozled"? Pretty much what it always means, AFAIK: fooled, hoodwinked, taken in. In this case, persuaded by slick salesmen to buy stuff that isn't as great as the salesmen claim.
