Reply #58: Now why would the Israelis need bunker-busting bombs? [View All]

[Zerex71]

Think about it. They don't need them for the Palestinian problem. Which country might have bunkers that need busting? And why now? These are the kinds of questions that JOURNALISTS are supposed to be asking, but never do.

Also, just as a point of reference, even though this might be the first time this particular munition has been sold abroad, FMS (foreign military sales) account for quite a huge chunk of change in the defense industry. LockMart and their ilk sell arms to foreign countries all the time. Israel, for example, loves their F-16s.
