I have no problem selling almost any weapons system to Israel.
As to the F-22, rumors are that Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Japan, Australia and a few others, (Poland, Belgium?) have inquired about buying them

And that is the real trap too. If we sell F-22's to Israel we will have to sell them to the Saudi's. It will be impossible not to. And if we sell them to Australia or Britain it will be impossible not to sell them to Israel.

I'm actually less interested in who we are going to sell them to than I am in how many we are going to buy and deploy ourselves. I think the Obama administration will scale back the purchase or cancel the program outright.

The only ones that you listed that should get them are Japan, and Australia (to help keep China in check).

The only other ones who I think should get them are Israel, and the U.K.

As for the rest of them, they can pound sand especially saudi, egypt, turkey, UAE, etc.
