The Middle East Forum cordially invites you to a webinar:
What Was That About F-35s? Demystifying Israel's Qualitative Military Edge
with Shoshana Bryen
After much discussion, Israel’s government agreed not to oppose the United Arab Emirates’ purchase of advanced F-35 war planes in return for unspecified upgrades to Israel’s arsenal. This controversy brings new attention to the issue of Israel’s Qualitative Military Edge (QME) guaranteed by American law. Will further peace treaties bring about an arms race, with countries recognizing Israel accessing advanced weapons, which in turn gets Israel even more? Does Israel’s expanding normalization with Arab states have hidden implications?
