Note: Here is an Email I received earlier this morning, from a friend living in Israel. I thought what he had to say was something all should hear and with his permission, here is his letter Please note that I have taken the liberty to highlight some of his comments, and that the letter is a translation from Hebrew.
!Shalom
Turkey announced yesterday to Iran, on the subject of Iran's claim against Turkey that Turkey, an American radar sets, on the soil of Turkey: "Turkey will not allow for radar, give warning, ON Iran's missile". It was message from Turkey to Iran.
So I ask the United States: - - What are you doing? Turkey, not your friend - they're Muslims., sharing all that you give her with other Muslim countries. Turkey says the message to Iran, even after Iran is threatening U.S. aircraft carrier . There is nothing rational, ... Why? Why do the United States not react against Turkey, on that Turkey does not make the ban on Iran - they do not make economic sanctions - against Iran. Turkey trades with Iran. Most of the produce of Iran comes to Turkey, and there, it replaces the flag, with "Made in Turkey".
Turkey announced yesterday - to Iran, that Turkey would not allow the U.S. or any country, to attack Iran, from an area of Turkey.
Very ridiculous to me, that the U.S. bases, are in Turkey. Therefore, a reason why the U.S. is limited in giving a reprimand, or looking unhappy, to Turkey?
I will not ask, "Why are not your bases in Israel?" - It's your decision. But we promise, - that Israel is the basis of one single force loyal to the United States. We in Israel, we are "not a military base in the country". We are'one country in a military base." So we are defined , and laugh at how we see ourselves.
You are the U.S., Turkey would give to F35 aircraft, before you are interested, give it to Israel. We do not know - what to tell you about it. Turkey - like our enemy. She threatened a few months ago about a war with us, you remember?
Turkish prime minister this week, met with Hamas leader in the Gaza Strip. Remind you - Hamas is set to a terrorist organization - by the United States own definition. You did not say anything about it and we wonder, why? That you believe that your friend is Turkey?!
Turkey, may one day betray the U.S. and in large. I tell you. Betrayal of Turkey in you, you will be very painful. Turkey with Islam. Do you think that they do not share your technology all the time - to your enemies? ...
I say now, you are arming your enemy. They snake under the tap. They will not let you operate from your base, against the enemies - the best case. In the worst case -they might give Americans a trap, then make my words - in your best English.

I say this, that everything has a consequence. Everything starts from something, but here, it's not just something you do not see, read between the lines of the Turks. They are not a friend. They are not friends. Turkey not only against Israel, known to the world that Israel is like a brother, a state of the U.S. overseas. Here in the area, that want to know what do the U.S., so we are small attempts of this. So they question you, the real tests on Israel. If you like it or not.
Take all my words - and understand that I am a person who cares very much for peace for the United States.

Bee's Note:
Here is one Israeli very concerned about one thing - his loyalty towards the USA and the thought that perhaps the U.S. does not understand the consequences of arming the very enemies of both the U.S. and Israel. He asks, "What are you doing?!" Don't you see that Turkey is wearing the skin of a snake, and is loyal not to the U.S., but to Iran, our enemy sitting in the very Gulf of Homez threatening U.S. naval ships?!
That being said, how many watched or listened later to the speech and announcements made by both BHO and Panetta at yesterday's Pentagon press conference? I wondered if anyone in the Press would ask the right questions, such as the ones being asked by our Israeli friend - none were asked that could possibly explain the down-sizing of our military, while up-grading our enemies!
ADD IT UP! Add up all the "gifts" of taxpayer monies to the Palestinians (not even a state/country); the military equipment and training to the Palestinians, Egypt and Saudi Arabia; the billions to Pakistan, Afghanistan; Iraq; .... all under the guise of humanitarian needs; nation building; etc. given to our "allies", when to accept the hand of friendship from such countries, would they first not have to be of "like-minded" and not just holding their hands out to receive our money, while telling our other, more worrisome enemies that they would prevent the US from attacking those who threatening us?!
Why, when you actually put pen to paper, adding up the BILLIONS of DOLLARS shared with the countries mentioned (above), you can bet it amounts to more than the amount this administration has decided to decrease from the budget of America's Defense Department. And, more than the amount contributed to the hospitals and medical treatment of our own troops.
To Congress and everyone in Washington, DC - your hypocrisy is showing! Your blindness about aiding America's enemies, for the sake of oil, or whatever else it is you think these enemies will give back, is outrageous! They will not give you one night of sleep; not one grain of peace of mind; but they will, when opportunity strikes, give all of us a rocket up our own A##s and by our own weapons! Israelis are not the only only folks attempting to warn us of harm directed our way ... see Allen West's comments (below).
Peace will never be obtained through bribes, military equipment and cash, as long as Islam sees us as their enemies, and according to the teachings of the Koran, we are the enemy of Islam! That is an ideology - not a religion - and time the United States woke up and accepted that bit of history as fact, not fiction.

Allen West: Obama's Defense Cuts 'Dangerous'
"Rep. Allen West says the military cuts outlined by President Barack Obama at the Pentagon Thursday show “incompetence” in understanding the nation’s national security needs and the defense strategy is not “coherent.” The Florida Republican — a former army lieutenant colonel — also told Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren he believes the nation’s military leaders were ignored in the Obama administration’s defining a military direction."
