Note:
This is news that should be revealed to Americans on both the TV networks and newspapers. It is a demonstration that the United States military and Israeli Defense Forces training exercises are a partnership between Israel and the U.S. Why isn't this information given to the American public? Could it be that the main stream media, under the Obama Administration, prefers to have the American people that we are at "odds" with Israel?
Israel is the one ally in the entire Middle East that is a democracy, and rather than continue an on-going media blitz about Abbas and the "poor" Palestinians, it would do all of us some good to see more positive news between Israel and America.
