  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ก.ค. 2012
  • SOFEX is where the world's leading generals come to buy everything from handguns to laser-guided missile systems. It stands for "Special Operations Forces Exhibition Conference" and it's essentially a trade-show where just about anyone with enough money can buy the most powerful weapons in the world.

      Given with how relations between the two countries are now I'd imagine it would be just a general chat. I'm not sure if they did it yet but they're on the verge of ending the Korean War between the two and I even think they're talking about a Joint Military Cooperation effort. South Korean president just went over to North Korea for the first time since the split for talks.
      Not looking into any backroom shady deals or possible betrayals, on a relation level between the two countries, it couldn't be better.

      @@BullsMahunny Well, not quite. If you look at when nkorea completed theie biggest goal ever and when they started to talk to skorea and the US you will see why the relations seems to improve. Kim is hoping to get Financial aid for the poor poor Citizens of his poor poor country because he now has the ability to reach the US with his nuclear missiles. You can also see this in his reasoning why hed rather meet the skorean president in skorea and not in nkorea: he said "the Infrastructure in nkorea is very bad, the skorean president wouldnt have a pleasant time traveling there" altho he knows the southkorean president would travel by air so he couldnt care less about the roads and trains and whatever, he is just trying to squeze money out of them.

VICE produces excellent visual content, if they left their political polarisation to the left out of it, they would be THE best documentary producer.

    "....Explain how they ended up in insurgents / terrorists hands ...."
    ever heard of captured equipment ? most of the stuff insurgents / terrorists use is captured equipment from the Iraqi military for example ( see ISIS ). I get all the cynism and pretentious talk about something so "hypocritical and wrong" such as "opposing" factions having a nice little chat during an exposition etc, but really don't be so redicilously silly with it.

    • @lkvideos7181
      @lkvideos7181 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      maybe research the facts first before swallowing every crap critical media tries to selll you. As allready stated, the Iraqi army received military equipment from a number of different nations for billions of dollars, including US, China, Russia etc etc etc etc. When ISIS popped up and gave the Iraqis a massive beating, they captured a huge amount of said equipment within the first few weeks since more than half the army was on the run leaving everything behind, including Abrams tanks, humvees, helicopters etc. That is how those weapons ended up in ISIS hands. The other truth of course is that a ton of stuff was most likely effortlesly bought from some arab / islamic countries *wink* *wink* I won't name to prevent flame war but obvious is obvious - those countries, again received their stuff from the nations allready mentioned. Such as US, China, Russia etc. Soviet origin RPGs and ATGM's and in general shit-ton of Soviet equipment got increasingly deployed by FSA for example, which also uses tons of captured equipment such as T-55 and T-72 tanks from the Syrian army. But no, people are ignorent and lazy enough - to put it very mildly and patiently - to assume the West directly sold weapons to ISIS because some of them are running around with captured AR-15 rifles from the Iraqi army. So consequently, the 99% majority of insurgents / terrorists running around with Soviet AKs were all armed by the Russian Federation, going by your logic ....

And how strong the jordan's armed forces are , the same forces that are protecting Syrian refugees from bashar alasad and prevented many terrorist attacks from happening But most importantly they humiliated Israel and kicked it's ass hard back in 1968 . And we're more than ready to do it again .

      Humiliated Israel? are you kidding? Egypt, Syria, Jordan and Iraq all tried to destroy Israel, a tiny little country of less than 3 million people... and they lost... IN SIX DAYS. Israel captured many territories and only 900 Israelis died... 16,000 of the opposing forces died. Israel humiliated the entire middle-east... they beat 4 countries with populations much bigger than them in a few days.

    • @1serhiy

      AlbanZap Are you stupid? the six day war happened over 40 years ago, it has no effect on the situation today. secondly at the time Israel had a very small military, but it was supplemented by massive amounts of american Aid and soldiers, so Its more fair to say the six day war was the middle east vs america. and lets not forget that all these countries where using inferior soviet technology, which isn't even comparable to what is shown in this video.

They don't give a fuck about you, me, America as a whole, they care about controlling Afghanistan. Iran? Not a threat at all to us right now, despite what the right wing media says. And the Iranian people overwhelmingly want better relations with the US. Iraqis themselves were never a threat to America, how the fuck would they have gotten here during the Iraq war in the first place? Where do you think ISIS got their weapons? From America, not that we sold them to ISIS at all, we sold them to the Iraqi military. And unfortunately the Iraqi Air Force and Army ran and left most of their equipment behind when ISIS popped up, so now ISIS have their weapons, vehicles, Iraqi and Syrian oil, money, etc.

    It's fun and games now, but it gets real if you're in a country like syria minding your own bussiness, and one of the rebels is playing with rockets and your family gets killed in front of you. I've seen videos of the reality of war, that changed my mind about guns, I used to love guns, thought they're so cool, but now, I hate guns, I despise them, seeing a real person getting shot several times, sitting out in the open, with his buddies unable to go help him, while he is getting shot, on and on and on, and still living until after many minutes he finally dies in agony in the open like an animal, that makes it real, it's suddenly not a game anymore. But hey, that's the reality we live in, some people are fucked up in the head, we have to defend ourselves from them
