The enemy of my enemy is not my friend

This past week I watched the movie "Lord Of War" a fictional story that is loosely based on a real Russian arms dealer that has had connection to the united states (even after September 11th). The more I began to dig the more I had to wonder about the ongoing war(s) in Afghanistan/Iraq and the build up of IEDs. The farther down I dug the more disturbed I was not because of where the evidence was leading but the very opposite the lack of anyone knowing where the evidence was coming from. I spent some time reviewing some of the IEDs that were found and was quick to notice they came in all shapes and sizes. Having been in the military I know that each ammunition of this size has its own serial number and can be traced back to the very source of origin. So I focused my search on that, after all I had heard that the U.S. had proof that the bombs were being supplied by Iran not long ago and figured this must be the smoking gun as they said they had. After some digging I found out that not only was everything they said withdrawn by the government in the UK but the US never provided any proof and seem to be very quiet about it now. The more I dug the less I came up with the only story I seem to have found was that a US company may have provided parts to a company in Singapore which is turning around and selling them to someone else who in turn makes IEDs. Conveniently enough this same company also makes ...you guessed it...anti-IED devices. Nothing more could I find anywhere on the outcome of this investigation. Maybe its my paranoid self but anytime something gets quickly snuffed out it usually means there is something going on that the higher powers that be don't want you to know about. Of course if anyone does a little digging they can find that the US is the largest arms dealer in the world and has indiscriminately sold weapons to up and come dictators all over the world. What are the chances that these parts, ammunition and weapons are being sold by companies in the US and are filtering their way back to Afghanistan and Iraq? Could UN laws be subverted just by selling it to a so called legitimate company and if so when the evidence is found how can any company justify continuing to sell these components when they have full knowledge of what they are being used for. In today's world it is not only dangerous but stupid to think that the enemy of your enemy is going to be your friend, in fact history shows us today's friend is tomorrows enemy. Do you think companies would knowingly supply parts for IED to make a profit and keep the war going at the cost of human lives?
