New data from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute showed that transfers of major conventional weapons rose by 22 percent in 2005-2009, compared to the previous five-year period.

The U.S. remains the biggest arms supplier, accounting for 30 percent of weapons exports, while China and India are the biggest importers of conventional weapons

Overall, China remains a relatively small player in global arms exports, which average around $380 million per year, compared to more than $7 billion for the U.S.

Yes it does!

Just learned that 51% of all US taxes are spent to "security"... I think even third reich cant match with its numbers, not even close. Fourt reich, or after Soviet Union we can say its now 5th reich by numbers - and it makes all bigger and better... Corporate Fasicm is back!

We are right in the middle of arms race, fueled by Banksters imperialism in ME, and with this never ending 911 - war against terrorism. But it just cant hold with debt and thefts, so I think its counted years ago how long this race will hold, and with what kind of army in its goals was ment to achieve.

Taking all ME to US/EU/Israeli hands... All debts will vanish, but will the outcome of that war will be like counted in 1999?

I think we are heading to final stage in entering to the next great war. Afterward its so easy to be wise, but time of third reich there was also no Internet and active media which could foresee - Now we just know all before it happens, and see what will happen...

- But what can we do, than just follow how everything goes to pieces?

There is nothing above top secret in here, and it takes hope away. Its so sad.

Here is it... Reality. Must see.

Dam i need a gun but here in the UK its five years minimum just for possession

When martial law comes i doubt there will be much we here can do but play along or die,

Personally id rather die.
