Sorry, I'm not familiar with the Cheetahs fleet. But every deal is not the same. You can never make that comparison. You also have to be familiar with the history at the time they were bought and how we were somewhat in a state of war with Israel and the Israelis has the V which they called the Nesher for obvious reasons I already mentioned, and you need to be specifically familiar with what is currently happening between France and Egypt and the additional Rafale deals as well as all the deep sea submarines they're negotiating. Negotiations are about having the upper hand and there is no doubt that they brought out that clause or whatever you want to call it that those aircraft cannot be sold to other countries without France's permission. You also have India.
This is France leveraging Egypt and not Pakistan. I hope you folks understand that. The French contracts are crazy. If you think it's an excuse, then what is that excuse, money? Where's the source for that. If it wasn't for the permission clause, all those modernized Vs would've been on their way to France. The Pakistani CoS was in Egypt several times and we're eager to develop a good relationship with Egypt but there are unfortunate constraints. I know your biased opinion of Egypt so I will be truthful with you, it is very difficult discussing anything related to Egypt because of your extreme hatred of the country.
I bet you if the actually end up making the deal work, you'll bring out some other stuff about how bad condition they're in and work your bias because nothing will ever convince you. You can believe whatever you like. Cheers.
LOL! Boy you really dislike Arabs in general. That was funny, though. "pressure from the bone sawer" LMAO'.
Why would it be out of the realm of possibility that the clause, if there were any written in them for those countries you mentioned actually approved by France? They didn't want Libya to have them when they were planning on bombing the crap out of that poor country at some point, right? Why not get the Lebanese ones as far away from Israel to weaken them even more for their Zionist friends? Australia, completely irrelevant in my opinion. Just having a disagreement discussion with you and I realize your intellectual position is much higher than many here, so it's good to have this conversation. Hopefully the truth comes out and If I as in the wrong, trust me, you won't get more of an admission on being incorrect from this man.
