It is not US policy to block sales made by other nations. I have posted a list of the Nations that France sold F-1s to. And most of them were not allowed to purchase US weapons at the time. The US is not overly picky about who we sell to, but we do not supply advanced weapons to despots. My link is in the quote contained in my Last post. The full text can be found at Globalsecurity’s web site. Mr Pike is well known for posting facts that the US would have rather kept out of the public eye. Now I would like to see your link showing US involvement in the French arms sales.
