US refuses to sell refueling jets to 'germ of corruption'

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad referred to Israel on Wednesday as a 'germ of corruption' and promised his people again that it would be wiped out. Meanwhile in Washington the Obama Bush administration refused to sell Israel Boeing 767 refueling jets out of fear that it would encourage Israel to attack Iran. Let's start with Napoleon Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is calling Israel a germ of corruption that will be removed soon in comments posted Wednesday on his presidential Web site.

The post appears to be part of an effort to defuse criticism by hard-liners over recent remarks made by a high-level official, who argued that Iran was a friend of Israel.
Meanwhile, as noted above, Channel 10 (cable television news) reported on Wednesday night that the United States has refused to sell Israel Boeing 767 refueling jets out of fear it will 'encourage' Israel to attack Iran:
During his most recent visit to the US earlier this month, Defense Minister Ehud Barak requested that America sell the IAF several Boeing 767 refueling planes. However, the White House refused, as it was not prepared to seem as though it was aiding a potential attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, the report, which could not be confirmed by The Jerusalem Post, stated.

The IAF has a great need of the planes, as the ones currently used by the air force are extremely old.

Last week, Barak told Army Radio that the US had made it clear it was opposed at the present time to military action against Teheran.

...

Following the report last week, a US State Department spokesman would not comment on what messages the US had given Israel regarding a possible strike on Iran, because they were part of confidential discussions.

He did stress, though, that "the US is committed to Israel's security" and that "the US would defend Israel from any attack from Iran."
How the heck does Clueless Condi's State Department think it is going to 'defend' us? By asking Iran to leave us alone?

This is the state department of the US, which is second only to the arab and islamic world in its raw hatred of Israel and jews. It is well documented that the state department is strongly biased against Israel and jews in general.

This is why Israel must stand alone in all aspects. As my country lacks the political courage and testicular fortitude to do the right thing, and stand by and support the only democracy in the middle east.

Israel is going to have to act with or without U.S approval. Preferably with a U.S understanding but without if there is no other option and find the means to terminate Iran's potential to wipe out the Jewish State.

The US has installed missile batteries in Jordan, Saudia, Egypt, Iraq, Kuwait, and all over the Emirates. Why?

To prevent an Israeli attack against the Iranian sites.

The US has armed the above mentioned Arab countries TO THE TEETH! They have also spent billions of dollars training their forces. Why? Do they fear an Arab on Arab war?

Since 1991, American presidents have promised their Arab friends a "Final solution to the Arab-Israeli Conflict"......they intend to keep their promise.
