The President of the United States is likely the most threatened man in the world. As a man who is likely constantly running from impending assassination, it’s surprising that we are just now learning that the Obama Administration entrusts a Middle East company with the servicing of the President’s airplane.
An attack against Air Force One would be an attack on both the President and an Icon of American diplomacy, and is for that reason no doubt an attractive — if once unattainable — target for terrorists around the world.
With this revelation, though, a path to the president through the Middle East has been opened. While the White House is adamant that security measures are in place that would ensure that anyone with contact with the plane is thoroughly vetted, the question remains:
Why allow for the possibility in the first place?
USA Today has the facts on the next page. Check them out:
I DOUGHT THAT THIS IS TRUE I YOU HAVE WATCHE THE VIDEO ON ALL OF AIRFORCE ONE IS AT ALL TIMES HIGH SECURITY US MILTARY PERSONAL ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT WORK ON THEM . THEY HAVE PARTS FLOWN IN AND U.S. REPAIRS THEM. THEY HAVE MAINTANCE DONE MORE OFTEN THEN REQUIRED.
Extra extra Aircforce one expected to blow up
Wtf is wrong with our govt?
Air Force One should only be serviced by Air Force personnel along with Boeing technicians. This is the only way the security can be maintained and although I hate to say also keep Obama’s life safe. With foreign technicians maintaining the aircraft, nobody knows what could be done on the aircraft, such as security breaches much worse than Clinton’s email scandal.
Hmmmm
Pay a foreigner to fix AF One? What an$#%&!@* I guess only good things might happen from this. Let’s cross our fingers.
This is LUNACY at it’s best !
Lol. He’s writing bad checks. Nobody will work with him!
It’s wite house #2 really? That is a command center.
a most obvious act of treason this… that plane once fixed should not be allowed back on American soil.. If they attempt to land it here it should be shot down on site, whether or not the chief dip$#%&!@*is on it or not..
