POLICY JUSTIFICATION
Israel--JP-8 Aviation Fuel, Diesel Fuel, and Unleaded Gasoline

    The Government of Israel has requested a possible sale of 
864,000,000 gallons of petroleum based products consisting of JP-8 
aviation fuel, diesel fuel and unleaded gasoline. Due to volatility in 
the oil market, this

notification requests a total quantity of these various fuels rather 
than specific quantities of individual fuels. The estimated cost is 
$2.67 billion.
    The United States is committed to the security of Israel, and it is 
vital to U.S. national interests to assist Israel to develop and 
maintain a strong and ready self-defense capability. This proposed sale 
is consistent with those objectives.
    The proposed sale of the JP-8 aviation fuel will enable Israel to 
maintain the operational capability of its aircraft. The diesel fuel 
and unleaded gasoline will be used for Israeli ground vehicles. Israel 
will have no difficulty absorbing this additional fuel into its armed 
forces.
    The proposed sale of these three types of fuel will not alter the 
basic military balance in the region and will provide Israel with the 
necessary flexibility to balance its individual fuel type needs as the 
situation requires.
    The U.S. vendors are unknown at this time due to the competitive 
bid process for the supply source(s). There are no known offset 
agreements proposed in connection with this potential sale.
    Implementation of this proposed sale will not require the 
assignment of any additional U.S. Government or contractor 
representatives to Israel.
    There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a 
result of this proposed sale.
