Israeli F-35 Briefing Slides and the M.E. Question

Here are some F-35 briefing slides from last year that were used to amaze Israeli journos. Undoubtedly, some or all of these slides (except the last one) were used to show decision makers at all levels of the Israeli F-35 deal.

What is interesting is the last slide from another F-35 brief that was in 2007 which had nothing to do with Israel. I mean literally. Think of it. The last slide shows all the potential F-35 customers worldwide for the life of the program, and the most important one, Israel,  is left out. Imagine that. So when will Saudi Arabia, UAE, Jordan, Bahrain, Kuwait and Egypt get theirs?
