Which fundamentalist country are you worried about? Are you seriously suggesting that the Taliban -- people without aircraft, missiles, tank divisions, or even socks! -- would invade us? I would much rather spend the billions being earmarked for F-35s on Katimavik, the CBC, Rights and Democracy, a national daycare program and job training. Anne is right. The only thing the F-35 is meant to defend is Canada's War industry. @ Dennis
