Any reason they should "TIE UP" Jom?

They cover two completely different aspects of your idiotic and false claim that British weapons were being used to kill civilians in Homs.

The first statement:
IF the ammunition was delivered in 2009, or before all export licences were revoked in 2010, then YOU have no idea whether or not those who would have been trained using that ammunition would be fighting on the side of the regime, or on the side of the rebels. One thing we do know for certain is that those conscripted to serve in the Syrian Army in 2009/2010 - would no longer be serving in 2012.

The second statement:
The newspaper articles that you latched onto to falsely claim that Britain sold weapons to Assad states ONLY that an export licence was issued - NOTHING ELSE. Had ammunition actually been sent I am totally convinced that the newspapers involved would have reported that - can you furnish any reasonably sane explanation as to why they would not do that?

All pretty academic anyway Jom - Standard NATO 7.62x51mm rounds would be of no use to the Syrian Army armed, as they were at that time, with Russian weapons that fire 7.62x39mm ammunition. Probably the most likely reason that no sale took place. I can see that, pdq certainly saw that, and I suppose it registered with any other sentient human being who bothered reading the thread - somehow it hasn't registered with YOU - simply put Jom you cannot fire a cartridge that measures 51mm from a gun that was built and designed to fire a cartridge that measures 39mm - WHY?? Because the former will not fit it is 12 mm too long.
