Pass the popcorn please. Wish I could deploy to Israel and help defend their border but I don’t see my Commander in Chief authorizing that anytime soon
David
Thank you for your service!
David - Thanks for your support but Israel has never asked anybody or any foreign force to defend them against attacks, time and time again. Israelis will defend themselves but appreciate US assistance in terms of MORAL SUPPORT, weapons systems and know how. The current Commander & Chief seems to be able to field his golf bag and cart and little more let alone a Company of soldiers... and so far he is renigging on the moral support issue as well.
Thank you for your service David!
I am seriously concerned that Obama will give a shoot-down order if Israel must fly over Iraq.
You and other soldiers could do a lot by figuring out who would, and would not, obey the same or similar orders.
I too wish I could join up with the IDF to help them in any way I could, but they may be hesitant to work with us any longer. They are a noble people who’s honor and bravery were evident in every person, man or woman, boy or girl I ever encountered while detailed there.
When I worked with them in the early 80’s they loved and trusted American servicemen and other Government employees detailed to the IDF and other Governmental services. I feel sad about the heartbreak they must feel of their staunchest allies deserting them in such perilous times.
My heart goes out to the Israeli people. It’s funny how history can be rewritten by liars and haters in such a short span of time to once again place them as villains #1 on the world stage.
I can fly us both there, David. 'Course, we'll have to steal a plane first .................. FRegards
