Top Guns: Inside the Secret World of the Israeli Air Force

Israel has one of the best air forces in the world, and also one of the most secretive. Correspondent Bob Simon was able to gain unprecedented access to the IAF, Israeli Air Force. In return for access to its planes and personnel, "60 Minutes" had to agree to rigorous censorship. . . we cannot identify the bases we visited, nor the young pilots we interviewed.

why do Israel need such a formidable war machine ? it is supposed to be a peace loving country, instead we in America are financing this war loving country, do Americans know that we are contributing $2 -5 per tax payer to Israel through foreign aid, all they do is to steal our secrets and spy on us to use it for their benefits. We should keep our hard earned tax dollars in our country and spend it on the poor and the needy Americans, they need it more than anybody else.

Israel runs america like it or not- the IDF is just a company fighting for the rothschild agenda and using the unsuspecting jews as much as they use the rest of the planet to deliver the Rothschild's one-world governement he so desires. There is no god in this equation, only money and power. The real origin of the word Nazi comes from Ashkenazi, which means "german" in hebrew. Figure it out if you can get over the lead & fluoride poisoning! Suppression is a tool, the air force is the same as the police force, all operating under the UN (supposedly) control. (which is owned and operated by Rothschild inc. aka: the crown, aka: world bank.) Don't leave some snooty reply which I will never return to this site to read anyway- go ahead and research it for yourself. Just be careful who sponsors your data!

every tax payer in America is contributing $2-5 to Israel through foreign aid, why don't we keep our hard earned tax Dollars to help the poor and the needy Americans at home during this difficult financial time.

All the Palistenians have to do is stop firing at Israel.They fire at Israel and cry foul when the I.D.F. fires back.Just like Al kaida freely bombs all over the world but call everyone else cowards for striking back

Go Israel! At least they have a spine left. We have turned to cowards allowing a king to run us in the ground. Oil is the god of the day while our children suffer.
