[Haaretz is Israeli Private Media]
[According to] a senior [IDF] air force officer[…]
[M]ost of the air force’s equipment in the war so far was bought from American companies using U.S. military aid.[…]
With Congress’ approval, the Biden administration has sent over unprecedented emergency military aid of $14 billion, on top of the regular annual U.S. military aid of $3.8 billion. Washington has also sent another $500 million for Israel’s air defense systems – Iron Dome, David’s Sling and Arrow.[…]
The senior air force official told Haaretz that without the Americans’ supply of weapons to the Israel Defense Forces, especially the air force, Israel would have had a hard time sustaining its war for more than a few months.[…]
The Iranians thus made clear [in their attack] that they intended to very seriously damage the Nevatim Air Base in the south, where Israel’s F-35 squadrons are based. Iran also launched a number of surface-to-surface missiles at the Mount Hermon base in the far north as a deception, but they missed the target.
Thus, the air force’s planes and air defense systems inflicted a serious defeat on the Iranians. But this was also done with the vital help of American, British and French planes, and reportedly also from Jordan and Saudi Arabia, and with the coordination of radar and warning systems between Israel and those five countries.[…]
The Arab and wider international cooperation with Israel remains the most important component of the defense of Israel’s skies – and this happened at a time when some government officials were disparaging our friends. This cooperation provided the most important contribution to the Iranian failure. We can safely estimate that many of the interceptions were done by foreign militaries.

I mean no offense or insult to anyone on this post, but as a witness to this event in real time, reeling with shock, anger and sorrow on the day it happened, I just don’t think this is funny.
Please reconsider making jokes about 9/11.
Oh I’ll insult every idiot on this post that thinks it’s “funny” and is “cackling”.
Especially since most of them were children or not even born when all those people were killed.
