Slaves to money
This post requires setting the mood, so before we start, let's go to the videotape.Once again, Israel let money take precedence over wise policy on Tuesday. On the same day that Russian President Dmitry Medvedev was in Jericho declaring Russian support for a 'Palestinian' reichlet (for which 'Israeli officials' declared a Pyrrhic victory because Medvedev 'only' supported "the inalienable right of the Palestinian people to create its own state, which is independent, territorially integral and with a capital in east Jerusalem” and not a return to the June 4, 1967 'borders' in violation of UN Security Council Resolution 242), the money-deprived (ha!) Israeli government delivered 12 more unmanned aerial vehicles to the Russians at a cost of $400 million.
Israeli Aerospace Industries (IAI) has delivered a dozen unmanned aerial vehicles to Russia under a $400 million contract, as part of an Israeli effort to encourage the Russians not to provide Iran and Syria with advanced weapons systems that could threaten the Jewish state. [Encourage? How about at least an explicit commitment even though it would likely not be honored in the breach? CiJ].What could go wrong?
“It is reasonable… to argue that Israel viewed UAV sales and joint military technology activity as a means of bringing influence to bear on Moscow,” Jane’s Defense Weekly observed.
The delivery stemmed from an April 2009 contract that marked Russia’s first purchase of a foreign weapons system. As part of the deal, IAI trained some 50 Russian pilots at its main facility near Tel Aviv.
“Israel is the world’s leading exporter of drones, with more than 1,000 sold in 42 countries,” said Jacques Chemia, chief engineer of IAI’s UAV division.

Jews play to the worst anti-Semitic stereotype: love of money over their own interests. You can take as the old saying has it, the Jew out of the Ghetto but you can't take the Ghetto out of the Jew. Servility and stupidity among the Jews are traits that will crop up in some of them from time to time.
What could go wrong indeed
