Israel has the 2nd strongest Air Force in the world

The reason the Israeli pilots beat ours in simulated combat is that the best Israeli pilots LEAD. Israel doesn't care if they are 18 or 38, 2nd Lt's or Lt Colonels. They know it's "war to the knife."

Our "Blue," Pentagon Air Force won't let our "Green," combat Air Force run this way.

In 2001, it took about a month to get the "Blues" out of the way so that the "Greens" could win Afghanistan for us.

With a chronic water problem, Israel is never going to give that up.

The water shortage is likely to ease as the Leviathan gas field comes on line, making Israel a net energy exporter. Israel will have the energy to rely more heavily on desalinization.
