We should toss in some bombers and nukes to go along with them.
Only 19. Hard to swallow.

.”.. Open up your Golden Gate!” Sigh
Paul bolten yesterday explained the why.
First and most important, the palnes will be in the hands of the military. The military is not the Brotherhood.
Secondly, the planes are a continuance of the Oslo accords.
Bolton is saying what most here can’t see....... the military is not the brotherhood. There is not a monolithic population of Islamists. The current demonstrations clearly show that fact.
The moneyed interests and the military will ultimately previl.
Follow the money. The US is not buying anymore tanks right now. Without this contract to send tanks to Egypt, the Abrams Tank Plant in Lima (OH) would virtually shut down. As well as all of their suppliers. If the Lima tank plant and all of their suppliers went out of business then the US would loose this industrial base. Maybe forever. It would be very, very expensive to rebuild it. And don’t forget, Egypt will buy tanks even if they have to buy Russian tanks.
” - - - The “yes” GOP votes are? - - - “
These are the go-along-to-get-along, scratch-my-back, bipartisan cave-in RINOs.
Round One in the 2016 GOP Presidential Nomination Race has begun.
Yup. The always gullible, spineless RINOs are determined to be more like the Democrats so that the Communist Liberal Agenda Media, (CLAM), will like them.
So the Obama administration is hard at work 1) disarming “free” American citizens of small arms, and 2) sending F-16s and Abrams tanks to Egypt, which is ruled by Muslim terrorists.
Makes perfect sense! /s
People still believe this lie, don’t they. The military demonstrated that they are strictly on the side of the Brotherhood by helping them to come to power in the first place. A military not in cahoots with the MB (rather than acting as an appendage of the MB as they do today) would not have allowed their top generals to be replaced by Morsi either. Yet people will still believe this lie even with Captain Obvious hitting them with an uppercut.
The military is not the Brotherhood
They really want the leftist media to like them, even though they are that media’s permanent Emmanuel Goldstein?
...so, your point is that it would be ok to send Abrams to.... I don’t know.... Al Qaeda... so long as that factory is open?
I’m not impressed. You got anything else?
/just ribbing you
That’s the way the pols look at it. Look who voted against it. Closure of these plants would not affect their districts. Politicians always vote in their own self interest.
Who is going to teach them how to fly those planes. Did we not give IRAN F-15s a decade ago but no replacement tires.
Their buds in Russia and China, of course.
“Who is going to teach them how to fly those planes.”
Themselves. They already have F-16s
“Did we not give IRAN F-15s a decade ago but no replacement tires.”
No. We gave them F-14s 30 some years ago under the Shaw. Reagan stopped supporting them. Actually, Carter started the embargo after the hostage taking in early 1980.
Thanks for the info. I did not realize Egypt already had over 200 F-16s so “what’s a few more?” attitude.
How does Iran plan on stopping the Izraeli air force with Tomcats?
