A photo attached to a post about a joint Israeli-American Air Force exercise featured the phrase "All units ready", a not-so-subtle nod to the song "Harbu Darbu" by Ness & Stilla. In recent weeks, the US military deployment in the region has grown substantially, against the backdrop of nuclear talks with Iran and the public military threat posed by President Trump.
Sources indicate discussions could include release of up to 11 living hostages held in Gaza and lengthy ceasefire as mediators work toward month-end target.
It's a mistake to view the Iranian nuclear issue as the be-all and end-all. It is merely a symptom of the deeper illness: the existence of a radical regime that promotes terrorism across the Middle East.
Exactly one year after Iran's first attack on Israel in April 2024, the US Air Force published interviews with the American pilots who defended Israeli airspace when more than 300 drones, cruise missiles, and various ballistic missiles were fired toward the country.
The Israeli response follows earlier reports about a Hamas compromise regarding the number of living hostages to be released in the Egyptian proposal.
