I have doubts about that video - as I understand it, Nevatim is a vast place based in the Negev desert and not surrounded by trees and urban architecture.

However I do think it was significantly damaged in the strike.

Well, for a start, why don't you talk like an adult instead of calling people "bitches" and saying things like "tuck nuts", and talking about the only solidarity in the Muslim world being about gang rape.

If you want to have an adult conversation about the goings on in the Middle East, sure. But if you make comments like this then you will get comments like mine back.

Do you understand the balance it takes for a country to not get bombed back to the stone age by the US? Do you think it's as easy as just bombing back and there not be any consequences? Hez are an armed militia, not a military. They can't send fighter jets over and bomb Israel, they don't integrated AD etc..

You are talking like an extremely naive person.

Here in Europe the Elites are planning a "sky shield". The basis is the Iron Dome. It will cost endless amounts of money. But, as Iran has shown, it will not give any security. And this was "only" Iran, the intended enemy would be Russia, a much more dangerous animal. But any political party rejecting this waste of money is "right wing" (even if they are social democrats) and in the crosshair of all the MSM. In the near future, we will hear a lot of success against the Iranian rockets - otherwise all this big money for the military industrial complex, all this seats on the board of this companies for politicians voted out of office will be gone.

This "bullshit" is what would be expected a state should do in a situation when there's a risk to the leadership. Head of Mossad is not a member of the line of succession despite being de facto a political position.

BTW Bibi was seen visibly shaking before. That's not a new thing. With the amount of cr*p he's been producing lately, it would be surprising if he could remain calm. Maybe he should ask the greenshirt of Kiev for a sample of his meds.

My personal theory is a bit more cynical.

TPTB controlling Bibi (who is hawkish enough by himself, but I still believe there are other forces behind him) are trying to ensure that whatever happens to the current leadership, there is still someone in a powerful position they can use to push for more of their holy war.

I have just asked the same question, above. I recall reading that they said they did NOT warn the US, but had "consulted" with Russia. I read that in a Russia source.

Robert Lindsay's avatar

It's probably true. Putin just happened to show up in Iran the day before the missile attack. I'm sure he was informed and gave them the head's up. He's also given them S-300's and S-400's and apparently SU-35's. Iran has developed their own major AA gun that is apparently even superior to an S-400. He also gave it their top of the line electronic warfare system. I don't know what they told him, but Putin showing up the day before is telling. I'm certain he was told of the attack but I would not call that forewarning. I'm certain that Russia did not tell the US or Israel about Iran's plans.

It looks like US and Israeli intelligence caught wind of the attack 3-4 hours before it happened and told the media. It also looks like the US had no idea when the attack was going to take place as they said it would be 12-24 hours and then it started several minutes after they said that. Why would Iran forewarn Israel and the US. They weren't playing with this attack. This is Iran putting on their big boy pants!

There are zero reports of Israel scrambling aircraft. No reports of takeoffs from these fields during the attack. Israel received no warning.

I have seen a satellite photo of the Netavim Base. There is a row of 20 F-35's. Five of them appear to be completely obliterated. So half the fleet was not scrambled at all. And Iran took out at least five jets. Furthermore, the day before the attack if you looked up that base on the Net, the general information link gave normal operating hours and days. The day after the attack that was changed to "Permanently closed." So one way or another Netavim is history. Israel's not using it anymore.

Well considering the intensity of Israeli air operations recently and the F 35 being very maintenance needy, 60 maintenance hours for every hour of operation, the Iranian operation was well timed to catch much of the IDF air force undergoing maintenance unable to move. Two things should be observed going forward; If the intensity of IDF air operations decline or if the full scale IDF invasion of Lebanon is cancelled as the IDF will not take on Hezbollah without air cover as that would be suicide.

If it was intended, it would be very clever to provoke a major invasion with tanks, transport, etc.; then to destroy the assembled equipment with missiles.

Not exactly novel - Rommel warned Berlin of exactly that danger in 1944 when he was ordered to mass his armour and hit the Normandy invasion beaches. He pointed out that the Allied air forces would simply fry the lot in one convenient batch.

1944 was not 1940. Still less is 2024 1940.

The visibility of the attack also works towards other objectives. It further increases the rate of emigration from Israel. It further damages what it left of their tourist industry.

But, most importantly, it is extremely attractive PR for the global south and Muslim majority countries in particular. This, if one is thinking as a civilization, is an expansion of the sphere of influence.
