"That does not mean that I and all of them are "stupid, stupid" or "imbeciles." "
Then you have been very selective in your looking - nothing new there.
No, it does not make them 'imbeciles'; their approach, which appears to be a "what if" one makes them naive. It also suggests a degree of ignorance as to the nature of the regime in Syria.
"We are also seeing increasing evidence of torture"
"Increasing evidence" has been available since the Amnesty report was published, so to suggest supplying non lethal weapons to such a regime is airy-fairy idealism.
You have been given that information yet you continue to defend yor appalling suggestion that such equipment could be sold - that makes you an imbecile and a supporter of war crimes by suggesting selling equipment to a regime actually in the process of slaughtering their own people
