#1 Giving the Egyptians this stuff is absolute madness. My first question is: who is the threat that Egypt needs such advanced systems for? If Israel loses the edge it has, then it only has nukes. If the Mubarak regime falls, for some reason, then who takes over the equipment? We are just bribing Egypt to not be overly hostile to Israel with $2 BN in foreign aid every year. This is absolutely nuts. Especially with 1000 jihadi nutcases who promised to be good (with fingers crossed behind their backs) just let out of the jug. This is CRAZY!!!
