So, you are an Israeli gun-runner w/ an
obsolete, over-priced missile no one wants to buy.
Even the Israeli Air Force Doesn't want it.
You will lose millions of the U.S. Welfare $$$s
you put into it's development.

What to do, what to do???

Just get on your U.S. welfare $$$-subsidized
air line, EL AL, and fly to Washington D.C..
Buy yourself one of the 20 + U.S.A.F. colonels who
double as lobbyists for U.S. defense contractors.

Send him up to Capitol Hill to tell the crooked politicians
(in private, of course) that the U.S.A.F. wants the AGM-142.
Make sure he reminds the politicians of all the $$$
the Zionist lobby dumped into their campaigns.
And of all the Zionist voters in their states.

Next thing you know, the U.S.A.F. is the proud owner of
a bomb that costs 100 times more than it's competitors.

The thing almost upset Pres. Bush's coalition w/
the Arabs during Gulf War. The U.S.A.F. flew
a load of them into a Saudi Arabian air field.

America using Israeli missiles to kill Arabs
would have been a major slap in the face.
Commanders ordered them out
of country as soon as they found out.

Millions of $$$s for junk we couldn't even use.

Just one of the screw ups that the media
didn't allow us to hear about.

It apparently wasn't any more useful over Kosovo.

Internet rumor had it that several were dropped but failed to work.

Apparently the Israelis forgot to program them properly
and they did not accept the targeting signals.
