Great news but it’s a shame deliveries take so long
In June, I was in Israel, and contacted a FReeper, who is known to be a jet jockey there, to see if I could buy him dinner.

Hold the celebration until it actually happens. If Harris wins, the Israelis will never see those jets.
Good! Maybe they can fight their own wars now and leave us out of the ethno-nationalist ambitions.

You must be forgetting Zionist-American Richard Pearle’s report to Netanyahu titled “A clean break” and then his subsequent address to Congress asking us to attack Iraq or our funding of ISIS to fight a war in Syria or Netanyahu’s address to Congress requesting to attack Iran.
Every middle east war in the past 50 years where we have sent our bravest, young Christian men to die and our money to be wasted has been on Israel’s behalf.
yes, IneligibleHarris seems to be a real communist plant
