Israel had the ability to hit Moscow, and they made sure the USSR knew it. They had converted Boeing Stratocruisers to tanker aircraft to make sure of it.

____And those lumbering planes would be shot down by SAMS before they entered Soviet airspace.

Wheree do you get these apocalyptio fantasies?



"And they get 2 billion dollars a year for having done so.

__A bargain.

"
A total waste of money, the 50 billion poured down that rat-hole would have equipped our military nicely.

)____Wouldn't have gone into the military, would have been spent on something else.



"Alll this scare-mongering about Israel's imminent annihilation at the hands of a small group ofterrorist fanatics...is, in my ioonion, a cover for what you have openly stated---an expanded Israel, beginning with the annexation of "Judea and Samaria.""

Don't listen to all "this scare-mongering about" extermination camps,

_____The camps were real, your fears about Israel being defeated bu a small band of terrorsts is
out of reality,.



you are just going to be "resettled in the East." Greater Israel does sound nice, perhaps stretching from the Sinai (or Suez if Egypt acts up) to the Litani River. Along the Litani and into Syria as far as the Euphrates. Along the Euphrates, which will form the border with Kurdistan, to the Persian Gulf, and perhaps the southern boundary from Aqaba to Oman, the Hejaz being a radioactive wasteland, the prophets statements about Mecca never falling having been proved false in a blinding flash delivered by a Jericho IRBM based in the Negev. Sweet!

+++mad!

"And those lumbering planes would be shot down by SAMS before they entered Soviet airspace."

The idea of a tanker is not to deliver weapons, but to refuel the aircraft which deliver the weapons. The B377 tanker aircraft had no need to penetrate the Soviet air defense network, they were to refuel the F-4 Phantoms that would do so. Israel has had tankers since 1964:

"Wouldn't have gone into the military, would have been spent on something else."

I will grant you that, 2 billion dollars a year would go nicely to rebuilding our attack force, but the Democrats and RINO's would probably spend it elsewhere. But given the choice to have spent the billions of aid spent on Cairo's sewage system on America instead, I'd rather spend it here.

"The camps were real, your fears about Israel being defeated bu a small band of terrorsts is out of reality,."

Well actually the main threat are other nation states, mainly Pakistan and Iran. But you do make a point, Israel was driven out of Southern Lebanon by Hezbollah, they are leaving Gaza due to Hamas. Their enemy used terror as a strategy against them, they lacked the will to return "the full measure and more," in large part due to the strings that come attached with US.

"Well, we're in BIGGGG trouble because there are a billion of 'em."

Yes, they have a staggering birthrate. For example a 1923 world atlas gives the population of Iraq as 2.8 million, here 80 years later it is 26 million! By contrast the US went from 105 million to nearly 300 million during the same period, including tens of million of immigrants. The RINO's and Democrats feel that the US has an obligation to function as lebensraum for nations that double in population every generation and import a fifth column into America.

Forget it, you cut off the explanation in the previous post. George Santayana was right.
