Obey Bewbies, bash countries here!

Perspectives on our world and our universe, how it works, what is happening, and why it happens. Whether by a hidden hand or natural laws, we come together to hash it out, and perhaps provide a little bit of education and enlightenment for others. This is a place for civil discussion. Please keep it that way.
Forum rules
1) Remain civil. Respect others' rights to their viewpoints, even if you believe them to be completely wrong.
2) Sourcing your information is highly recommended. Plagiarism will get you banned.
3) Please create a new thread for a new topic, even if you think it might not get a lot of responses. Do not create mega-threads.
4) If you think the subject of a thread is not important enough to merit a post, simply avoid posting in it. If enough people agree, it will fall off the page soon enough.

Including the US. :shock: I'm not kidding - aside from torching the breach, you can get M60D's, Cheiftans from England(about $25K last I looked), And Leopard Mk1's from Canada.

You got me.

There's a brisk trade in personal armored vehicles. A buddy sold his Armored Assault Vehicle late last year - made $12K on the sale over what he paid for it.

We could up until a few years ago. Enviromental issues, tanks and APCs draw lots and lots of gas and they just spit it right out again.
"Find out just what people will submit to, and you have found the exact amount of injustice and wrongdoing which will be imposed on them; and these will continue until they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."
-- Frederick Douglas, 1857
