US Defense contractors must have permission to sell arms to foreign countries. These countries are, in turn, bound by agreements not to resell or share the technology.

So are you saying we should not sell Jets to Israel, who last I heard had one of the best airforces in the world? It takes one of those f-16's less than 15 minutes to cross their country, they need the jets for defense pure and simple.
The whole middle east conflict has been going on for thousands of years. It will never end and the more we poke and prod it the more its going to flame up and burn hotter. There will never be an end to the fight until one side is completely wiped out.
