Granted that Israel arming Red China isn't any different from our arming Jordan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia, but I do wish that Israel would look to embattled Taiwan instead as a customer.

One major difference. In the drone deal under discussion, Israel asked the DOD if they could sell them, and defense said OK. Different administration, I know. Israel doesn't get a say in our sales, four times what we sell to Israel, to her enemies. Who we're commited to keeping in an inferior military position.

Granting all that, I'd still much rather Israel develop a relationship with Taiwa, which is in a very similar position to Israel's. Of course, I am aware that the Republic of China was very, very hostile to Israel for a very long time, but so was the PRC. No need saying that it would also give the Israel-haters one less reason to spew their garbage, because they don't need any.
