    I would prefer that Israel produce the majority of it's military weapons systems in Israel. Israeli technology, Israeli workforce, Israeli money. Hopefully with the newly found oil and gas reserves discovered, it will happen. I would love to see Israel pay back the financial aid given to her so that there couldn't be any more negative posts about "sucking us dry," "my hard-earned tax dollars," etc. Go ask Jordan and Egypt how many billions of dollars they've been paid in US taxpayer dollars since their peace treaties with Israel were signed; all without the same restrictions that Israel has. Maybe these countries that currently supply Israel with military hardware won't/can't hold spare parts over Israel's heads. Foreign policy dictated by spare parts when Israel has to defend herself against terrorists buried in rat holes up against schools, hospitals, and mosques firing mortars and missles at Israeli civilians.
