Israel conducted a major aerial military exercise over the eastern Mediterranean Sea this month, a U.S. military official confirmed.
Israel reportedly may have wanted to show it can attack Iran's nuclear program, which includes the Natanz plant.
The June 2 exercise was first reported Friday in The New York Times.
The United States believes that the maneuvers were in part an Israeli effort to send a public message that it has the capability to attack Iran's nuclear program, the official said.
The exercise involved dozens of Israeli warplanes, including F-15s, F-16s and aerial refueling tanker aircraft, the official said. The size and scope of the exercise ensured that the United States and other nations in the region saw it, the official said.

Not to pay too close attention to a map of the world or anything, but won't Israel first need to violate the airspace of Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, or Turkey, to get their aircraft anywhere near Iranian soil?
ReplyDeleteI can see US-occupied Iraq allowing Israeli aggression to pass harmlessly overhead, but I don't envision any others of the Arab League letting the Zionists cruise overhead in the aircraft sold by the US of A.
