Acshully, a) is a possibility, just not in the sense of anything the GER
gummint condoned. A lot of guys like Schaab (misspelled him as Schwab

GER export regulations are fairly strict where weapons are concerned, which
is why the Saudis never got German tanks. However, business being business,
the mighty buck rules for a lot of people. Hope they get nailed, if they
