In a previous life, before I decided to abandon a thriving consultancy to apply my training and experience to a systematic review of the Koran, http://boreal.ca/Koran/PPPContent.htm I was asked by a senior government official to include in a cost benefit analysis an estimate of the value of the life of an aboriginal http://boreal.ca/Canadian/WhoKilledCAMS.htm .

I imagine that during the discussions the Honourable Stephen Dion had with his officials, before he signed off on the sale of 15 billion dollars' worth of mobile gun platforms to serial abusers of human rights, it was mentioned that they would be used by Muslims to kill Muslims. Did this factor in their cost benefit analysis of the deal?

I doubt very much had this been a sale of weaponry to a despotic Christian regime to be used against Christians, that it would have been approved.
