I AM A SUPPORTER OF ISRAEL, BUT THEIR BILLION DEAL ON JETS FROM ITALY CRANKS ME . WHY NOT BUY AMERICAN.

I dont think they like us much.

Are where are the Israelis getting the billion $$$ to buy those Italian jets???

You get three guesses, and the first two don't count.

They only take the $6 billion a year, they have no intentions of ever giving back.

no linky you stinky

whats the point of them giving you your aid money back ... lol

I don't understand them sometimes, they were shopping between South Korea and Italy and chose Italy. Has Obamas rejection of them cause this. We could use the work here in America and it would give us something back for all we give them.

Perhaps they are worried about the supply of spare parts being ongoing?

yeah we give them billions in foreign aid and they spend it in italy
we literally support Israel, ungreatful

Linky my ass, I don't even know how to link, so just watch the news scroll on Fox News.

I know, that is what pisses me off.

That is exactly my point, with our true unemployment, some say well over 20%, I think they should do business with us first.

You've learned a valuable lesson about the khazers (Psa 80:13), OP.

Wizdum comes to us all eventually.

Obama has already refused to sell them parts. They need to have alternate available.

Sounds like Italy makes better planes than the US!

I doubt Obama has anything to do with it. They probably liked the nice red leather interior vs the cheap american plastic interior. Plus the wood grain finish.

I guess you are right, I heard yesterday where he is not going to replace and munitions used if Israel attacks Iran. I am not Jewish but I do believe in their right to exist, and I am starting to believe Obama doesn't.

LOL, how true.

No that is not the case, we make the best in the world with out any question.

We're in the process of trying to figure what is going to replace our own aging fleet of T-38's which are 60's era planes...I don't really think we've developed a new trainer in the last few decades.

Not really sure if the whole dedicated "trainer" route is one we really do anymore....we have a whole more of a variety of fighter aircraft than most countries do....so we may just go to those instead, not really sure.

Actually,that's the entire point.

Yes the T-38s are really neat trainers too, used them when I was in. I don't know if we are still doing the trainer thing either, since we have so many fighters sitting around, and the more sophisticated simulators in use today.
