[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 1256694, member: 5151"] Re-read the paragraph, slowly: Now, recite the calendar months. Next, check what year this is, and what year last year was. The phrase "last September" refers to the announcement being made in September 2009. In that announcement, the ministry said that the export would begin by the end of 2009. Now, read the next paragraph from the article: In other words, the U.S. has been pressuring South Korea to not export the firearms that were scheduled to begin shipping on or before December 31, 2009. The article is dated August 2010. The timeline is correct. For those who need more clarification: [LIST=1] [*]September 2009: Announcement made that M1's would be exported [*]September 2009-Present: Obama Administration pressures South Korea to not export M1's for "safety issues" [*]December 2009: Planned shipping date passes [*]August 2010: Article published reminding people about the announcement that was made nearly a year ago and pinning the blame in the rightful place [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
