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’d cancel that contract for sure!
This should never be with either Air Force One or anything that America has
The military needs to service air force 1. Nobody else should go near it
I wouldn’t trust them even if I was standing there baby sitting them.
Can’t be serious
No way
I feel that any type of service needed to be done it should be done here in the United States of America and no where else cause there is high security information and software aboard Air Force One….
Fire this bunch immediately and use trustworthy Americans who we can entrust our Presidents life to. Lord protect President Trump and all who ride on Air Force One.
I hope that President Donald Trump will change that and have all parts needed for any military aircraft should be made here in America and no where else … Besides we need job’s in America!!
WOW!!! I would think that would equate to the same as entrusting your daughter into the care of a room full known rapists. Common sense would say….”DON’T DO IT”
