America is undoubtedly sensitive to media reports, especially those tied to the Israeli-Arab conflict and the Mideast.
American diplomatic officials stationed in Israel have already released a statement denying any connection to America�s decision to sell F-16 fighter planes to Egypt and the Ilan Grapel prisoner release deal, which took place on Thursday afternoon, 29 Tishrei, just hours before the American announcement.
The statement said �there is no truth to the reports� linking the sale of the advanced fighter jet to Egypt and the deal to release Grapel, who holds both American and Israeli citizenship.
