#3 Make it an either or.

You get the S-400, or you get F-35s. Your choice.

Personally I would let them get the S-400 since Israel has proven they can use their F-35s to completely dismantle Syrian "advanced" Russian made air defenses.

#4 ...'Blackmail' is such an ugly word.

I prefer 'extortion'.
