Obama To Announce Sale Of F-15 Fighter Jets
The Obama administration will announce a big sale of F-15 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia. The deal will deliver 84 new planes. Plus, 70 existing planes will receive upgrades. The deal is worth nearly $30 billion. Sources tell the Associated Press, the plan is to bolster Saudi military strength as Iran grows more belligerent. Last year, Congress approved an administration bid to sell a total of $60 billion worth of gear. Besides F-15s, Saudi Arabia will get helicopters, missiles, bombs and delivery systems — even night vision goggles.

same country of people that attacked us on 9/11
Capitalism trumping common sense....this is the same country that officially --- OFFICIALLY! --- preaches and condones the murder of non-believers. Most of the 9/11 killers came from that country. Wow.
Obama is an idiot - doesn't he know that these same people will turn around and use these same weapons against us if they deem necessary, they have already done so - OMG he is so antiAmerican.
