The eagle II is not as good as the Lightning II even though it has a far better power pack.
Israel used the lightning II in july to kill Ismail haniyeh while he was then cavorting in tehran.
It was carried out by a lightning II that could not be detected by Iranian radar.
But the eagle is not invisible and any flight of the plane will always carry the risk of losing the pilot to a SAM strike.
Then what.
Then the mullahs could quickly send some solid-fueled rockets flailing to the bases of the eagle fighters.
But admittedly the eagle is american taxpayers’ money well spent as far as Jerusalem is concerned.

Eagle II is nothing compared to what’s coming in the next few days.
What’s going to happen soon.
In the immediate days ahead, netanyahu filled with hubris, will launch an all-out strike against Iran.
He will expect his all-out attack to fully decapitate Iran, open all the taps to mix Iranian blood with Iranian oil and Iranian nuclear fuel.
But Iran is made of far much sterner stuff than netanyahu can ever anticipate.
The country literally went through hell in the initial stages of the ’80-’88 iran-iraq war and later emerged victorious.
Nothing netanyahu can hurl at iran today can compare with what Saddam Hussein used against Iran in the war.
It was all-out mad-maddening slaughter backed by almost all the Arab states and their backers and the global media.
Today, very unlike in 1980-1988, Iran has very excellently good links with two countries, Russia and north Korea, both in possession of underwater-earthquake tsunami torpedoes.
All Iran needs to do to take handy revenge for coming strike is get hold of an underwater tsunami bomb and…the resulting episode will forever rewrite history for the whole middle east.
Netanyahu look before you leap. Biden no useful guide !

The best way to deal with Iran and their support of Terrorist puppets like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis, is to cut off their money supplies.
Israel does not need heavy bunker busters to destroy Iran’s soft-target energy industry.
Shockwaves will cause turbine generators to explode, and incendiaries are all that’s needed to burn refineries and tank farms to the ground.
Ukrainian drones have been doing this for years in Russia.
Putting Iranians on foot and in the dark is all that’s needed to end the Iranian economy and their support of Terrorism.

Prof, a big relief jerusalem only ‘itching’ to get f-15ex.
Supposing instead it wants a fleet or two of x-37B craft.
That WOULD mean massive flashing of blue lights for a lot of people around the planet.
I’d always like to think spacebombers angwhdre anytime will make ground-based attack jets look like yestweday’s Military toys.
The army space and missile defense command doubtless will not disagree.

With, or WITHOUT greatly vaunted assets like Eagle II, Israel is the enfant terrible of the middle east.
And soon to become enfant terrible extraordinaire of…..the world. In about a decade’s time. Or maybe 1 & 1/2 decades.
What does that mean, or more exactly, what does that entail in the long run.
For the long run, countries like Russia and china could actually find themselves in the crosshairs of the..(enfant terrible extraextraordinaire).
Due to the unmistakable fact today the tail wags the dog.And the dog naturally looks to the tail to harm dear doggie’s enemies.
So, in the future, those countries if not careful or wary, could find themselves sharing the current awful awful fate of Gaza’s people.
How then to confront the terrible dreaded days of tomorrow.
Easy.
Make sure today ya already have a countrywide cottage industry producing and storing all kinds of rocket & missile components and parts.
No such thing ? Kaput for ya !
