טרם יצאנו לקשר חוץ. 
בדיוק מנסה להבין מי אמון על זה.,
התשובה היחידה שהם קיבלו כרגע זה מניר שקיבל מנתבג.

Hey all,

Were still working on the exception rule.

The only alternate base we can offer, that can support a 777 will be Nevatim. Ramon will probably have the same restrictions.

All the best,

Subject: Army weapons to JC20

Benzi,

Army participants in JC20 will be caring individual weapons on the Boeing
777 main body flight currently scheduled to arrive early on 25 Feb at Ben
Gurion Air Port.  Nir Yogev is telling me that we cannot carry weapon when
landing at Ben Gurion and must create them. We are  unable to crate the
weapons and must carry them.

Also, I contacted the US Air Force logistics office in Tel Aviv to make sure
that we are following the correct process. They explained that the Israeli
MOD and the Port Authority security will not allow the weapons to be carried
at Ben Gurion.

I need help getting approval to carry the weapons into country. We either
need an exception to carry the weapon on Ben Gurion or to move where we land
to a location that will allow us to carry the weapons off the plane.

Thank you,
