Thank You American Jews: U.S. blocking Israeli access to U.S. fighter-jets

The Obama administration has imposed obstacles on Israeli efforts to procure U.S.-origin fighter-jets. Over the last few months, the administration has rejected a series of Israeli requests regarding modifications of the F-35. They included Israeli electronic warfare systems and acquisition of U.S. software codes that would allow Israel to repair the aircraft's central computer. The U.S. refusal meant that the Israel Air Force would be forced to send the F-35 to the United States for any repairs, a process that could take months.

The sources said the State Department has been delaying Israeli requests for pre-export licenses required for an examination of the new generation F-15. The sources said the administration has not approved the new F-15 for the Foreign Military Sales program. They said this could prevent Israel from using U.S. military aid to purchase the aircraft from Boeing. "This is a legal issue," a source said. "The F-15SE might not qualify for FMS."

Thank you American Jews for voting in this monstrosity.
