| The Bush Administration, in mid-financial crisis, approves to give more fighter jets to Israel to bully Iran, Syria, Hezbollah and Hamas. The Pentagon's Defense Security Cooperation Agency has agreed the $15.2 billion-sale of 25 F-35 Joint Strike Fighters for Israel with an option for another 50, amid speculations that Tel Aviv is preparing for an attack on Iran, DEBKAfile's military sources reported. The agency claimed it is vital to US national security interests to assist Israel develop "a strong and ready self-defense capability." The deal was approved after senior Israeli and US officials met in Washington this month and assurances were given that sensitive technologies would not be passed to third parties. Earlier this month, the Pentagon approved up to $330 million in three separate arms deals for Israel and posted its advanced FBX-band radar system to an Israeli Air Force base in the Negev. Israel is the first foreign nation to receive the up-to-the-minute Lockheed Martin F-35 Joint Strike stealth fighter, which will replace the older F-16 fighters and enhance its air-to-air and air-to-ground defenses. |
