Perhaps he's O.K. with tanks, artillery, various missiles, mortars, but not, absolutely no handguns or scary black rifles.

Just what I'd expect from a self-centered, elitist , rules don't apply to me and I always know what's best jerk. You and I can't fly there but he has no problem. Just like landing his helicopter at his home in violation of all sorts of laws and regulations.
He's a perfect candidate for POTUS based on the present occupant's attributes.

Ummm, you can still fly into Israel if you want to with El Al and others. It's only the US-flagged carriers that have been told that they can't fly into Ben Gurion Airport by the FAA. And while some other national carriers may decide to stop flying, El Al will be the last airline to give that up.

I bet Shekels to bagels that he supports Israel's collective right of national defense, not the right of individual Israelis to defend themselves from philistines.

You are right. I saw where he flew El Al. Still doesn't change my opinion of him, though. I think before Israel gave up that ability there would be some molecular changes to the silica in the area of their enemies.

Maybe we can persuade the Israelis to keep him?

From what I have read, the Israelis are not any better about this than New York or the other eastern states. You would think it otherwise, but no. I think this gets obscured by the pictures of the IDF gals and guys carrying their rifles off base/on leave (altho I notice there never seems to be a magazine in in the photo), and some places where there are armed school teachers and settlers after some nasty incidents. However, from what I can glean private citizens must get "may issue" permits, and these fairly rare.

Perhaps they can put Bloomberg in a Hamas tunnel and have him smother infiltrators with overwhelming amounts of hot air.


ETA: WRT my first point: Knesset tightens gun control with no opposition You would think they would know better, but still too much socialism in the political bloodstream, I guess. Sigh.
