Giving F-35 (Air Superiority) to the Saudis, when Israel has 1000 atomic bombs, is not likely to bring Trump the Peace Prize.

Air power is the basis for land power, which is the basis for borders and nations.

But atom bombs also matter.

Iran has bombs on account of the Haqquani family in Pakistan.

USA could be seriously harmed by a balloon borne EMP device that I could build in a week.

A helium filled balloon can get to 10,000 feet long before any jets can be scrambled to shoot it down. A Dupont electronic detonator will respond to a radio signal from 10,000 feet away.

EMP would make the White House and Pentagon fairly useless.

Some of their circuits are clad, most are not.

Most cell phones and computers would go dark.

Most telephone too.

Venezuela has an embassy on Mass Ave. So does Iran. So does China. Big roofs. Helium gas tank only takes 9 square feet.

You can’t get a Peace Prize by Making War More Likely.

You think it takes Einstein to see that, but any 8 year old kid could figure that out.
