the philippines, an ally of the US, is not getting enough military assistance, if you compare it to the aid US gives to israel(F15,F16),egypt (500 plus M1A1 tanks), we have long standing relations with them, fought with them during world war 2, why can't we even have their obsolete F5 Tigers, OV10 Broncos, M113 APCS, Huey and 500MD helicopters, they could be rusting in some storage depot, if we are to aquire these, afew upgrade of israeli technology is sufficient enough to counter the conventional forces of the chinese threat |
