3rd January 2006
Yes, right!Jordan is rated before Israel!Dear web master,could you please state any world known Jordanian arm-manufacturing companies, outdoing such real Israeli sharks as the IAI,IMI,Rafael,Elbit,El-Op etc?Your data appears somewhat unreliable.Could you explain where is Mother Russia here, one of the world's leading arms exporters/producers?And how come that Spain appears after Qatar?Please, explain.
Sincerely, Asher JDAM.
