Bump for decent Islamic news.

I lift a glass to that.
Seeing how Germany is now busy preaching to Israel about non-violence and
France can't hide their longing for a return of the Vichy...I won't be vacationing
anywhere in Continental Europe...maybe ever.

And for un-informed lurkers (as I've said before): The Israeli Air Force has an
agreement with a country that allows them more airspace to "open the throttle" on their jets.

I suspect not one American in a thousand would know that the name of that country is:
Turkey.

Israel also is providing Turkey with upgrades to many of its weapons systems, most notably the F-4 Phantom and F-16s, but other systems also. Israel and Turkey have long standing good relations. Turkey's good relations with Jews go all the way back to when the Spanish kicked most Jews out of Spain, 1492 or thereabouts. Some of the earliest migrations of Jews back to Palistine came via Turkey and/or when Turkey controlled the area.

The U.S. Armed forces have been hiring Turkish labor for years. We had some of their folks in Germany in 1971. LOL! They would really stink up the barracks with their cooking in their rooms.(memories)They also showered in a diaper looking garment.

The U.S., England, Israel, Australia, Turkey. This is the most probable line-up on our side in the upcoming world war. IMO
