You’re kidding me. It takes years for our government to agree to ship an orange squeezer to another country, but they can get F-16s to Egypt this fast? Something is rotten in Denmark.

Rewarding the Muslim Brotherhood for a job well done...and who exactly is threatening Egypt nowadays? Is there any question that the high tech weapons are meant to be used against Israel? At what point will one reporter force people who voted for this to answer why?

Clueless senators.

"Egypt’s top general warned that the state was in danger of collapse as a result of the violence in three Suez Canal cities, Port Said, Suez and Ismailia. They are now under a one-month state of emergency, which gives the president and the police extraordinary powers and suspends ordinary judicial process as well as most civil rights." NYT

public crucifixions of Christians, child rape, and slavery
........ all paid for by squirming and angry US taxpayers?"
What difference does it make?"

Egypt has never been at war or in conflict with any of these nations except Israel. Why are we sending them F-16s??????

"Mind the Republic Senators who approved this: Boozman, Coats, Cornyn, Crapo, Cruz, Fischer, Grassley, Heller, Lee, Moran, Risch, Roberts, Rubio, Scott, Sessions, Shelby, Thune, and Vitter."

How do all these guys justify approval?

Cruz?

Rubio?

hopefully we have an embeded virus in the avionics that will crash them.

but we have a POS SOS who dealt with the enemy during vietnam and a possible POS SOD who dealt with the enemy in central america.

i used to thing the campy book series WINGMAN was never possible. now parts of it, like a traitorous regime, are coming true each day.
