The IDF reveals in Detail , how they Eliminated Taysir Jabari, Palestine Jihad Commander.

The elimination of Taysir Jabari - the bombs penetrated through the seventh floor of a 14-story building"

For many hours, the Air Force worked on finding the best way to eliminate Jabari without harming civilians. Finally, it was decided to launch a relatively small bomb through the seventh floor, so that it would penetrate the sixth floor and explode above Jabari. The Air Force sent seven additional bombs to the scene in accordance with advance planning - a lesson learned from previous attempts at thwarting, from which terrorists managed to escape alive. Within 180 seconds, Abdullah Kadum was also eliminated from the air, and the IDF also attacked Hamas outposts and observation posts.

Kills your so called Messiah, denounces Christianity, doesnt recognize your so called Messiah, does a Pride month in Jerusalem, is Gay but yeah, the Lord will come down from heaven to fight for them in Megiddo? grin Religious people and logic.

The explosions in Crimea were an act of sabotage not missiles. Stop misleading people. If ATACMS are used on any Russian Territory, it will quickly turn into a full blown war with NATO. Even the Ukrainian MOD has come to debunk that it was them. You can check Twitter for it.

I don't believe this. A SU-35 costs 100x what a drone costs... Except maybe multiple drone for a SU-35 flanker?
If the deal pulls through, it would be yet another blow for other Middle East countries.... The likes of Saudi Arabia.
Iran is easily has the most strongest militarily in the region. Their airforce is weak considering they have been under sanctions and haven't been able to purchase from others since they lack the technology to produce reason they sticked with the missiles they produce domestically and produce em en-masse. Now that Russia is willing to sell for them world class aircrafts, their airforce is going to start seeing some transformation.

Meanwhile, they already have a satellite now in the orbit. And no doubt that and this news if true shows that their already competent militarily has already started a transforming for the best. If they're able to build nukes too, which they will, honestly Iran would become a force to reckon with not just in the MD but the world.

Iran don't need SU-25. The fighter can not protect it's sky against the US & Israel. It needs SU-35. Iran showed interest in the SU-35 before the Ukraine war.

I don't think Russia will swap it's SU-35 with Iranian drone. Presently Russia is still riding on it's pride. She is trying to show the world that the war in Ukraine can be fought successfully without any external military assistance. Let see how long they can do this. At a point in the war they stop using their Orlan 10 drone in mass. Probably due to the sanction which made it difficult to get spare parts for thier drones. Recently, it look like, they have found a way around it. Cos they have started using them again in mass.

I believe Iran will outright buy SU-35s and not swap with drones as those birds are very expensive. The media is trying to paint Russia military weak. The LDR and DPR soldiers have their own drones coupled with Russia's Orlan 10. Don't think they need any external support as it has not generate into a full blown war. It is currently a war of Artillery and missile strikes.

Also, there has been 3 shifts in Uralvagonzavod way way before the SMO even started.

Zelensky's office advisor said that Ukraine was not involved in the explosions at the airfield in Crimea

In an interview with the anti-Russian Dozhd channel, M. Podolyak said that Kiev had absolutely nothing to do with the explosions at the airfield in Novofedorivka.

Re: Gov. by olugabbie(m): 10:00pm On Aug 09, 2022
I think to better protect Iranian air space. They need SU-35, MIG-35 & S-400 defense system. The pair of SU-35 & MIG-35 can effectively protect Iranian sky. The SU-35 is equipped with top notch avionics. Although it not equipped with AESA radar (it uses PESA radar-the special PESA radar can detect target up to 350km). MIG-35 on other hand is equipped with AESA radar which can track more targets than the SU-35. But it detection range is less than 350km

So imagine these two aircrafts in a mission to protect Iranian sky under the protection of the S-400 defense system.

Trump ally Rep. Scott Perry says the FBI seized his cellphone one day after Mar-a-Lago raid

Perry, in an exclusive statement, told Fox News on Tuesday that while traveling with his family earlier in the day, he was approached by three FBI agents who handed him a warrant and requested that he turn over his cellphone.

"This morning, while traveling with my family, 3 FBI agents visited me and seized my cell phone. They made no attempt to contact my lawyer, who would have made arrangements for them to have my phone if that was their wish. I’m outraged — though not surprised — that the FBI under the direction of Merrick Garland’s DOJ, would seize the phone of a sitting Member of Congress," Perry said in his statement. "My phone contains info about my legislative and political activities, and personal/private discussions with my wife, family, constituents, and friends. None of this is the government’s business."
