Apparently we're giving 20 F16's and 200 tanks to Egypt... Then they actually feel the need to elaborate on the effectiveness of F16's...

Why is there a voice that says we never would have let them go unless we could shut them down.

Too bad we don't want to shut them down.

Fast and Furious on a grand scale? They want to track and see how long before a terrorist uses one against us?

Actually they are hoping they will sell them to Iran. Then we can detonate the nuke that is hidden in one of them and scream WMD and jihad their ass.

F16s are f16s, but are we sure the tanks are M1A1s? (Seriously doubt we'd give them a2s). They could be M60s for all we know.

Egypt and Jordan has been stabilizing forces in the middle east for a long time. After the change in leadership we are showing that we are going to continue treating Egypt as a stabilizing force. I see it as the right way to go.

Now if we'd given these to Lebanon of Libya I'd be wondering WTF :)
