wher in the heck do those mid-east protesters get those foreign flags they burn?


i mean, is there a 'flags of the western world' store on every street corner or what? there seems to be no shortage of them...



or is it "flags of the ifadel world"?

"Made in the U.S." flags are hard enough to come by here in my area of the country that I would suspect they come from China.

The same American flag that is $9.99 at WallyWorld made in China is $35.00 as ordered through my local Army Navy store. I have found websites online that are a bit cheaper, but I like to buy local when I can to support my local tax base.

And yes, I have a flag flying that was made in the U.S.

As for who is supplying them to the protesters, I am not sure. If the demonstration was here in the U.S., I would be able to name several organizations that would supply flags to a demonstration.

is there a shopping list for protester's?

items to get:

1 american flag
gasoline
matches
7.62x54 rounds for my AK-47
1 banner to wave with 'americans out of iraq' misspelled

i doubt those people just go to their local wallyworld or get 'em from amazon.com, you know?

That wasn't the point I was making, but I get your point.

My point was that someone is laying out a bit of cash or dinars to buy those flags for the demonstrations.

i've always had the sneaking suspision that the were provided by the same cameramen who film the burning flags and protests. i'm pretty sure the protesters bring their own Ak's to fire into the air, though.

That firing into the air always amazed me, where do they think the bullets goes? I say, let them celebrate and firing their Ak's into the air and they will pretty much lose the war by themself eventually. Half the injured civilian footage aired in the news to make US troops look bad were probably people hit by falling bullets from protesters with Ak's.

You know what? Thats something I've also been wondering. Perhaps they send a guy to America.

"Hello I vould like to buy a American flag and a lighter."

"...may I ask what for?"

"...hello I vould like to buy a American flag and a lighter.

Like the first reply to this thread noted, China. The Chinese probalby got a 1,000,000 worker/nation work program working on everything that every nation on the planet needs. Everything from Ab toners to zippers. Flags just happen to fall under "F".
