How Obama’s perfidy led to the marriage of an Israeli missile with an American gunship.
”Israel meticulously limited collateral damage by utilizing precision weapons. Among the precision weapons employed by Israel was the Hellfire. Israel’s Hellfire attrition rate was high and so the Israelis turned to the Pentagon and military-to-military channels to resupply their depleted Hellfire stocks. The Pentagon obliged but once Barack Obama caught wind of what was going on, he suspended the transfer of missiles. This was part of the Obama administration’s orchestrated plot to undermine Israel in time of war and exert maximum pressure on the Jewish State to accept a cease fire agreement, with terms dictated by Hamas, Turkey and Qatar.
In addition to the suspension of Hellfire missile deliveries, Obama ordered the State Department to issue a travel advisory against Israel. The following day, his Federal Aviation Administration issued a directive prohibiting U.S. carriers from flying to or from Israel’s Ben Gurion International Airport after a single desultory rocket launched by Hamas fell harmlessly about a mile south of the airport. These insidious directives were collectively designed to inflict economic harm on Israel and hamper its military efforts.
Obama’s nefarious scheming failed to convince a resolute Benjamin Netanyahu, who pressed the counter-insurgency opffensive until Hamas cried uncle. But following the campaign, appropriate lessons were drawn. Israel understood that it could not rely on the illogical whims of an unreliable president and decided that it would find a replacement for the Hellfire. Israeli defense officials approached Raphael and asked the company to mate the Spike NLOS to the Apache platform. Raphael obliged and soon after, Israeli Apaches were photographed equipped with the Spike’s NLOS variant.
Necessity is the mother of all invention. Israel’s genocidal enemies have compelled the Jewish State to be smart and resourceful. Forbes Magazine recently credited Israel with producing three of the most influential weapon systems of the past decade -- the Stuxnet cyber warfare virus (jointly produced the U.S.) the Iron Dome anti-rocket system and the Trophy Active Protection System, which is currently deployed on U.S. M1-A2 tanks as well as Israeli Merkava IV tanks.
Obama was certainly no friend of Israel’s, but Israel has Obama’s monstrous betrayal to thank for the successful integration of the Spike NLOS to the AH-64 Apache platform. ”

Obama withheld aid to a long-time ally who was WILLING TO PAY for it and nary a word was said.
Trump held up a payment for, what, two weeks and is getting impeached over a phone call....
Factually correct?
