AMERICANS WHO MADE A DIFFERENCE ..... FOR ISRAEL

Israel had only four warplanes when the War of Independence began (May 1948). The planes were smuggled in from the Czech Republic. They were German Messerschmitt BF-109's from WWII, assembled overnight in Tel Aviv and were never flight tested before their use against the Arabs. The irony was that the Arabs had supported the Nazis and it was Nazi Luftwaffe planes flown by Jews that were instrumental in defeating five Arab armies.
