There is no "joining" of military forces. Just technical coordination of systems. NATO does this through Standardization Agreements (STANAGs). Israel is not part of NATO, so this is a unique arrangement
It is not true that Israel is banning US fuel tankers because of financial costs. The restriction is a logistical and capacity-driven measure to protect commercial aviation operations, not a financial penalty or a halt to military cooperation.
Capacity Limits: Israeli Transportation Minister Miri Regev capped US refueling tankers at 20 aircraft at Ben Gurion Airport to prevent the displacement of civilian flights.
Commercial Impact: The Israel Airports Authority warned that the presence of dozens of military aircraft was forcing the airport to operate at one-third capacity, risking the cancellation of up to 50,000 commercial flight tickets during the peak summer travel season.
Relocation, Not Ban: The remaining US aircraft are not being banned from Israel entirely; they are being directed to land at Israeli Air Force bases instead.
Military Continuity: Despite the logistical dispute, US Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed that the tankers remain vital for regional operations, and the disagreement centers on basing logistics rather than a reduction in US-Israel military support or a refusal to fund the operations.

Transportation Minister Miri Regev cautions that Israel will not allow more than 20 US refueling tankers to be parked at Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport.
“Hundreds of thousands of plane tickets were bought by Israelis to fly and enjoy their summer vacation,” says Regev. “We promised that we will enable commercial flights and we will not cancel a single ticket because of American refueling planes.”
“Therefore I have given instructions that we will not allow any US refueling tankers to land at Ben Gurion Airport beyond the agreed number of 20 planes and the remaining planes will land at Air Force bases,” Regev adds.

The directive comes after the Israel Airports Authority warned that unless more US aircraft are removed from the country’s main international air gateway, as many as 50,000 flight tickets could be at risk of cancellation in the coming weeks.
The monthslong presence of US military aircraft at Ben Gurion Airport amid the Iran war has been preventing a full return to normal commercial flight operations, while also driving up operational costs for local airlines.
They didn't sink it, they attacked it time after time, including killing 35 sailors, using their gunboats to shoot US sailors in the water, Our Gubment was complicit in sending help to the sailors, under President Johnson's orders, the same President Johnson who used a thunderstorm to attack North Vietnam and escalate the Vietnam war, the same President Johnson who gave the Israelis the nuclear bomb 3 months after the assassination of President Kennedy,Kennedy refused Israel the bomb. Hum, just a coincidence. What a fuking shit show we've been experiencing
Fuk them.
Don't fuel any of their planes for starters.
Tell them to goto Ben Gurion.
This the same military that wanted to join up with the US military.
Incorrect description of the proposal.
Show us what you're talking.

The same military that sank the USS Liberty.
Yep, that one.

Sure.. I see what they are doing here.
"Just pass the NDAA act! When our Militaries are merged, this won't be a problem anymore." 😐
Would not merge the militaries. You need to learn more about it. It may be similar to a NATO STANAG.
