sale of weapons / tear gas to dodgy states 13 Years, 2 Months ago

I see the Foreign Office is now trying to make sure that we (the Brits) don't sell any nasty ytear gas etc to Bahrain - in case it gets used on those peaceful protestors.

What do they normally think these States use tear gas (and other weapons) for .... if not for suppressing those who don't agree with their policies ?

GB have sold them thousands of tear gas cannisters in the past, but the foreign office said that they haven't been used during the riots. Apparently. Of course the Bahrain Govt would naturally store them in the weapons cupboard by country of origin and chose not to use the British ones. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Help !
I've been tear-gassed (or shot).

As long as they weren't British bullets or British tear gas, then thats alright then !

(What are they "saving" the British bullets etc for ???)
