Translation

POLITICO: Iran has obtained advanced air defense systems and laser systems from China!

Iran seeks to disrupt enemy radars, engage in electronic warfare, and surprise Israeli fighter jets in the upcoming war

I couldn't find any article or mention from politico claiming this, so it's likely fake or extreme world play

Just interesting it's coming from state news?

Two strikes but four fires

Remains a very difficult threat to counter.

Looks like 25-year strategic deal will go ahead.

Very interesting video which talks about the Israeli Golden Horizon "Aeroballistic Stealth Glider"

Natenyahu referenced this missile in one of his speeches, and described it as "the most advanced offensive weapon on the planet" and, "none of the superpowers have" in reference to China, Russia and the United States

Israel likely used this missile against Iran in 2024 and 2025

There is a chance that Israel couldn't achieve total air supremacy over the Iranian capitals, and instead relied on PGM's / Stand Off munition to do the bulk of their strikes

This would be consistent with the US approach, having arguably better intelligence and tech at hand (and a weaker enemy) . Relied on expensive JSOWs and Tomahawks to strike Yemeni capitals, fearing SHORAD ambushes.

This was already known, as well as plenty of evidence that many of the drones were launched from within Iran by Israeli agents.

In Yemen, the environment was still contested; the Americans were unable to effectively suppress the Yemeni IADS network.

The case of Iran is different because Israel managed to neutralize the Iranian IADS network via cyberattacks, kinetic attacks, and suppression. Furthermore, the IAF has already posted photos of F-16s and F-15s during the attack on Iran carrying medium-range PGMs, implying that the IAF did not fully resort to the use of long-range munitions.

...

OK I am now convinced that Khamenei is either an Israeli asset or a useful idiot, either explaining why he is still alive. He is hindering Iran's nuclear program. The old man has far outlived his welcome. He needs to go.

Khamenei's predecessor, Khomenei, instigated the 1979 Revolution while living in exile in ... France. Here, in suburban Paris, he was freely and openly preaching and advocating for the revolution.

Some people have alleged from day 1 that the whole revolutionary movement was a Western plot.
