Ok, I get it. Hussein won’t stop his good buddies bombing Israel but to look good, he’ll send over foam to put out the fires.
When I read the article title, I thought Zero was sending Nerf toys to Israel to defend itself with. ;)
o.k. this from a posting on the original site: THE REST OF THE STORY... (read that the obamanation does NOTHING to help any Christian or Jew). his black heart is in bed with the muslims
The full story stated, in part, “the fire retardant Israel needs is not one that the FDNY uses in New York, and (Mayor Bloomberg) had the FDNY reach out to the United States Forestry Service, which does use Fire Troll 931 to fight forest fires.” I know you can’t look a gift horse in the mouth, but The US Forest Service quit using Fire Trol chemicals in about 2004, but does allow for the use of whatever Fire Trol chemicals remained in inventory. This looks like a way for the USFS to get a lot of credit for being a great, caring agency while getting rid of inventory that it doesn’t want. A US company with a long record of working with the USFS (and who employs 3 ex senior USFS retirees including one from the USFS lab and who’s combined career with the USFS exceeds 100 years) came up with a patent for a “safe” gum thickened retardant and the USFS changed the spec for retardant to be able to use the “safe” retardant. Coincidentally, by changing the specification, which matched the new patented retardant, the USFS’s action resulted in Fire Trol, who had 75% of the US retardant market, being totally shut out of the US market because it couldn’t meet the specification and is no longer on the US Forest Service Qualified Product List. With this old inventory gone, the new guys will have to replace 45 tons of it.
