Report: In 1st, US refuelers to take part in major Israeli drill for strike on Iran
The Times of Israel ^ | May 17, 2022 | Emanuel Fabian

Posted on 05/23/2022 9:05:47 PM PDT by Angelino97

The United States will participate in Israel’s largescale drill simulating a strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities as part of the broader Chariots of Fire exercise later this month, Channel 13 reported on Tuesday evening.

According to the unsourced report, the US Air Force will serve as a complementary force, with refueling planes drilling with Israeli fighter jets as they simulate entering Iranian territory and carrying out repeated strikes.

The unprecedented Israel- US aerial collaboration in a drill simulating a strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities is seen as a potential message to Iran amid long-stalled negotiations in Vienna over a return to the 2015 nuclear deal, a possibility Israel has repeatedly voiced its objection to, warning it would lead to “a more violent, more volatile Middle East.”

Iran doesn’t have many friends. Soon they’ll have nukes. Nip in the bud time. Don’t know our involvement. Can’t we give Israel the tankers?

I'm sure Israel has tankers. But they'd rather we were more actively involved.

IAE, it's not our war. Or shouldn't be.

Iran isn’t the only eschatological death cult.

???

People lose me when they start dragging Bible prophecy into discussions of contemporary geopolitics.

“Ukraine, Taiwan, Iran ... none are our problem. But the Neocons insist on making all of them our business.”

Iran is our problem. There are only two things that can destroy society and cause a global confrontation between the powers that want to destroy individual liberty. One is the repeal of the second amendment and the other is the destruction of Israel. If both of those happen, the final war on man will be between the Communists and the Muslims, with the rest of us watching on as slaves to authoritarianism.

* I don't see how the destruction of any foreign country would destroy U.S. society or "individual liberty" in the U.S.

* While the Second Amendment is important to our liberty, there is much that is equally important, such as the First Amendment, control of our borders, sound money (i.e., avoiding Weimer style inflation), a moral people, etc.

Judgment on Elam. Glad you posted that. In case anyone doesn’t know Elam falls within the borders of modern day Iran/Persia.

Not sure if you noticed, but the first amendment is pretty much shot. Say what you want and you go to prison, unless you are a liberal.

The destruction of the Jewish State means that radical Islam will be unchecked.

And that's a significant loss of liberty. We need to rectify that.

Operational Security, which means what you shared ought not to have been known to anyone, let alone put out in the media. This entire post ought to be deleted right now.

This was reported in The Times of Israel. I found it linked at ZeroHedge.

I'm sure they get far more readers than FR.

The Times of Israel probably got their info from a press release. So it seems the Israeli government is not trying to hide it.
