Americans don't think deep. There was never an opportunity for China to get on Trump's good side unless China helped him win this election. So for CNN to suggest there was an opportunity means helping Trump win the election. Trump doesn't care about China bullying countries that he's said bad things about them too. He told Abe he hasn't forgotten Pearl Harbor. He told the Governor of Maryland who's married to a Korean how South Koreans are terrible people. He said India was filthy. So which country is CNN referring to unless they're just blindly using the typical automatic anti-China propaganda hiding behind other countries' problems with China and not how it's really about how the US has a problem with China going back to when it was unabashedly about race only? In short CNN is saying bad Sino-US relations is China's fault... as usual.

Israel has a history of selling US tech to China

Are they going to restart production or will they be selling off existing US inventory? Seems fishy either way.

I can maybe see the US doing a sale if it is already restarting F22 production for themselves to counter the J20, but I just don’t see the US doing that for a foreign sale, and I cannot see the Israelis being able to afford to fund the restart of F22 production themselves for a few dozen aircraft. The per unit price would be astronomical if they did that.

The burden could be shared between Israel and Japan. Japan did try to acquire F-22 before starting their F-X project. So the U.S. could potentially force Japan to abandon F-X and instead buy F-22 with Israel.
