Vile obscenity in this morning’s L.A. Times:
"The entire region has tremendous opportunities… as the slowdown comes, you’ll see the companies become more aggressive in the international market."
That’s a VP from Lockheed Martin, at an arms show in Singapore, expressing his excitement about selling weapons of death into the Asia/Pacific region.
The biggest American companies — Boeing Co., Lockheed Martin Corp. and Northrop Grumman Corp. — had the largest exhibits here and rented the most lavish chalets, as generals and government ministers sipped champagne and watched aerial displays of weaponry.
Sipping champagne while contemplating which bomber to buy.
Obscenity.
