Pic of the day.

Apache helicopters of the Israeli and Hellenic Air Forces fly together in a joint aerial exercise. These types of exercises are a central aspect of the Israel-Greece military cooperation.Photo by Israel Air Force.

A couple of things about this photo that the IDF is highlighting as its pic of the day.  First this photo was taken in July of this year.  Is this part of the propaganda effort against Iran?  Second, its hard to miss the Israeli Apache's operating with fuel tanks in the pic.  Lastly what's with all the training with European countries?  They practically have a base in Romania and they're drilling their asses off with the Greeks, but nothing with the French, Germans or UK.  Is there a split in the EU with regards to Israel or is it simply a military issue?  I don't know but will be asking.
