And just how do you promote peace with people that have sworn to annihilate you? With barbaric and violent people one can only promote peace through strength. It has not been Israel who has been threatening other countries with destruction because of religious views, doctrine, and hate. It is the weak Chamberlain wishful false peace thinkers that usually bring upon their people destruction. Sooner or later you have to face bullies if you want to make them stop. Begging for mercy from evil people only makes it worse because they thrive on fear and pain. Anyone who is not willing to protect their families and country from those who wish it harm are just cowards. One should pray that the enemies reconsider and want peace but one must also be ready to fight if they insist on harming you and your loved ones. Even a chicken defends its chicks.
32. Another very expensive Military System
tom dee ,   savannah Ga USA   (07.29.12)
I see our Congress and Senators are giving away another very expensive Military system while unwilling to provide relief to our wounded veterans. Someone should tell our elected ones that the IDF was not been in combat since 1973 while our youth has not been at peace since Dec 7th 1941

Bluegrass Picker ,   Afula   (07.29.12)
get your streetmap of Amman now, it's only a matter of time before we turn it into the capital of Palestine. You can have a visa to visit us on this side of the river, no problemo. The Saudi-Hashemite's american in-laws will probably set him up nicely somewhere in Michigan amongst all the other Arab immigrants.
34. refueling jets
S.W.P. ,   San Diego,USA   (07.29.12)
What,with all the money Israel gets from the US they can't design and build a Refueling Jet own their own.I have to say I'm more than tired of all that the US citizens have to give Israel.It's way past time for Israel to stand on it's own.

36. To rub salt in the wound, the 'isreali-firster"
American Vet   (07.29.12)
in congress will rule that the equipment is "surplus" there by israel "buys" (with our money) at a deeply discounted price. isreal-firster will say they spent the money in the US. No the American taxpers got screwed again.
37. PRAY FOR ROMNEY'S SAFETY

38. Empty gesture; urgency of acquisition isnt in 3 years...
hippocrates ,   earth   (07.29.12)
its NOW. Obama has sold 30 billion to ausid arabia alone and simiolar amounts to the rest of the arab world and turkey. he has upset the startegic balance and continues to do so by dictating to israel and micromanaging how Israel defends its peope. Hands off obama maybe cairo will invite you back for another "historic" speech now that egypt is in the hands of the brotherhood of islam. Good job Hussein Obama. Now its time for Romney!
39. US gov is an abortion
2cents ,   US   (07.29.12)
The US gives billions to Isreal n says Isreal bought arms from the US. pffft. The US is giving away arms for free. The US doesnt have a penny, every cent is borrowed, so every expense u multiply by at least 3 cuz that what the real cost is w interest till its paid. The US has the 2nd worst child poverty rate out of 35 developed nations. The US gov is an absolute certifiable abortion.
40. too little, too late
Larry ,   Los Angeles   (07.30.12)
