Israeli Defense Ministry: IDF and US Air Force will conduct joint air exercises with simulated strikes on Iran and its regional allies

Representatives of the Israeli Ministry of Defense announced a series of joint air exercises with the US military, during which imitation of attacks on Iran and its regional allies will be carried out, writes The Times of Israel. By regional allies, apparently, pro-Iranian formations in Syria and Yemen are understood.

The IDF said in a statement that air maneuvers to be held over Israeli territory and the Mediterranean Sea will start on November 29.



US and Israeli air force fighters and tankers will take part in the exercises and simulate a number of scenarios related to countering regional threats

- publishes part of the statement of the Israeli military department.

The material indicates that the joint exercises were agreed upon during the trip of the Chief of the General Staff of the Israel Defense Forces, Aviv Kochavi, to the United States last week.

The press service of the IDF said that during his five-day visit to Washington, Kochavi urged representatives of the US Department of Defense of the need to accelerate the development of joint plans to contain the "Iranian threat."

During the discussions, it was agreed that we are now in a position that requires accelerating the development of operational plans and cooperation in the field of deterring Iran and its terrorist allies in the region

- said Kochavi after a visit to Washington.

The Times of Israel recalls that Jerusalem opposes US President Joe Biden's attempts to revive the nuclear agreement between Tehran and world powers that are ready to ease their sanctions against Iran in exchange for the latter's restrictions on its nuclear program.

Recently, however, the aforementioned disagreements have become less relevant as negotiations over the nuclear program have failed.
At the same time, Israel is insisting that the US prepare "contingency" military plans to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. weapons.

The article also says that US President Joe Biden has previously expressed readiness to use military force against Iran if necessary, but still prefers diplomatic methods to resolve the dispute with Tehran.

      If you remember, somewhere in 2020-21, shortly before 2022, the United States and NATO countries also began to conduct simulated nuclear strikes on Russian territory along the entire western border.

      It seems that now the US and Israel have decided to provoke a full-scale war in the Middle East against Iran, simultaneously weakening the Saudis and making them accommodating to increase oil production.

      American jackals are hungry for blood, involving their puppets in this action.

          trying to destroy Iran

          Bullshit. They are trying to destroy the regime of fanatics in Iran, the regime obsessed with the "export of the Islamic revolution" and the genocide of Israel, and not Iran itself.
          Israel and Iran were good friends until militant fanatics came to power and declared Israel an "enemy of Allah", breaking off diplomatic relations and announcing the destruction of Israel for religious reasons as their goal.
          So the current situation is entirely Iran's choice and fault.
          They made an enemy for themselves, from scratch, they created it with their own hands, one might say.
          It is clear that they needed an "external enemy" to consolidate society and redirect social tension outside, so that the people would not rebel under the yoke of extremist theocrats, but they chose the enemy, to put it mildly, unsuccessfully for themselves.
          And surprisingly, it plays into the hands of this very “enemy”, having so frightened the Sunni world that he decided to forget his policy of “opposing the evil Zionists” and massively conclude peace treaties with Israel. And some even enter into military alliances and buy Israeli weapons.

            "cold peace" in the first decade after the Islamic revolution, during which the rupture of diplomatic relations and Iran's belligerent rhetoric against Israel were combined with ongoing behind-the-scenes contacts and the fight against a common enemy in the face of Iraq (including as part of the Iran-Contra deal) ;
            further aggravation of the conflict after 1990, due to changes in the global geopolitical situation, the general deepening of the confrontation between the Islamic and Western worlds, the beginning of the peace process between Israel and neighboring Arab countries and work in Iran on the creation of its own nuclear weapons.

              "cold world" in the first decade

              It was due to the lack of active actions by Iran against Israel. And it persisted until Iran began to organize and sponsor terrorism against the Israelis, the turning point was the terrorist attack against the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires in 1992, organized by the Iranian intelligence services, on the direct orders of the Iranian government. And then Iran unleashed a sluggish proxy war against Israel, with the hands of its puppet Hezbollah. Just like the Yankees today with the hands of x0hlov against the Russian Federation, one on one.

              Which undermined the entire ideological basis of the Iranian explanation of the reason why he wants to destroy Israel.
              And in general, from the point of view of human morality, it is bestiality to condemn others for their desire to make peace and stop shedding blood.

    The history of the Arab-Israeli conflict goes back to the period when the Ottoman Empire collapsed after the First World War. By this time, Arab nationalism already existed, the purpose of which was the creation of independent nation-states in the territories of the Ottoman Empire inhabited by Arabs. At the same time, among the Jews living in Europe, there was Zionism, which was a movement for the creation of a Jewish state in Palestine. The religious and spiritual unity of the Jews in the Diaspora with Palestine survived the centuries, but until the end of the 50th century, only small groups of Jews immigrated and settled there, driven by purely religious feelings. By the end of the XNUMXth century, there were about XNUMX thousand people. But under the influence of Zionist propaganda, the number of immigrants grew. The early Zionist ideologue Ahad Ha'am warned that Jewish settlers should under no circumstances arouse the ire of the locals. However, the influx of Jews into Palestine led to conflicts with the local Arab population.

    In 1917, the British authorities, needing the support of Jews in the First World War, issued the so-called Balfour Declaration, which promised the creation of a Jewish "national home" in Palestine.

    After the end of World War I, in 1919, Zionist leader Chaim Weizmann met with one of the leaders of the Arab nationalists, Emir Faisal, in the hope of cooperation. Faisal signed an agreement with Weizmann, in which he pledged to support the claims of the Zionists in Palestine, on the condition that the Arab plans for national revival be carried out in Syria and Iraq. But this agreement did not matter much.

    The League of Nations decided to place Palestine under the administration of Great Britain in accordance with the system of mandates established by the League. The ways the Zionist Organization promoted a Jewish "national home" in Palestine were mass immigration and land buying, and the refusal to hire Arab laborers to work on Jewish farms and in Jewish settlements. Mass immigration of Jews to Palestine began shortly after the end of the First World War, which led to fierce resistance from the Arabs as early as 1920 and 1921[9].
