Fine by me. Whatever we give to Israel has a funny way of going to China.

2. You mean like Israeli-designed fuel tanks for the F-16I/Block52+ going to the improved F-16 Block 60, we sold to the UAE?

The issue is not about Israel getting the F-35, but whether it can modify it with Israeli avionics and weapons. Besides with China supporting Irans nuclear program and selling the J-10 to Pakistan as well as offering it to the Arab countries, I don't see a redux. Last time I checked, Israel stole the Harpy drones it had sold to China, on the pretext of an upgrade.
