Erez,
While I’m kinda puzzled why you made a thread about the IDF/AF getting a new commander (let’s be honest….who really does care?), I must applaud your reaction to kfadrat……with the emphasis in that screen name being “rat.”

Well, the point of this thread was just for your general knowledge… when people would like to talk about Israel’s Air Force in the future, they might want to know who is the commander.
As for kfarrat, he is just an instrument in his own country’s propaganda.

Besides, if you don’t think Kfadrat is worth of any attention (after all, he’s Syrian and Arab and Muslem and whatever), then it would be nice if you shut up about him. In second AND third person postings, inch’allah.

In my opinion, he will always worthy of attention, but only when he will talk aviation here, inch’allah.

Well unfortunately it got a tail and as usual the defence mechanism is ready. Let us be straight even if it is an aviation forum and I am not an arab (and not even a fan of them). I very much like the IAF and do say that Israel should be recognized and left alone… etc. etc. But using high tech weapons to kill occupied people that should have the same rights… But only get the getto’s, there lebensraum is erased and their children and women treated as criminals and shot in open… What is missing.. Concentration camps… Nope. Only the gass chambers cause most of the pelestinians have seen prisons more then once. For what? I find the Zionistic ideas of putting jewish people above everything like nazism. So if you still think that the Palestinains are the bad guys that are that stupid that they throw rock to receive rockets in return or are that low that they blow themselfs inside busses. Do think about how bad the condition is where they are pushed in. It is so simple to say thatunderstand why the dog bites you if you put it in a very small chamber and give no food and water and kick it every few seconds. On the other hand defending that jews were treated bad during ww2 and getting cash from big forms… Tsss…. It may be not a aviation topic but somehow I tend to believe that we should think why Israel is allowed to have WMD a lot of high tech arms and still able to use their forces to terrorize (and thatis inclusive the AIR FORCE so it is aviation topic) the Palestinians and even eradicate their houses… In a western world after seing only Israeli side we should not start being pushy about the aviation part… If yuo gut the guts mr Erez… There are more then a few Israeli pilots who said the same (again aviation related). And do not come up with sponsering terrorism or being anti Israel… I am the last one being that.

As for the so called aviation related issues you brought here, Israel’s Air Force has the role of eliminating all people who are a threat to Israel, and doing that with the least amount of losses in civilian lives.
Let’s take for example the recent elimination of the old and sick person with the moderate view – Ahmed Yasin.
This creature has been teaching thousands of people this moderate view:
Palestine must be all over Israel, not next to Israel.
Now these thousands of people are joining Hamas, and become terrorists.
That’s what we call here cutting the head of the snake.
Now not only that we made sure this creature will never teach others his way and thus reducing the amount of terrorists who want to harm Israel, we have saved thousands of people in the Palestinian, that without the elimination of this person would have been finding their death either by making suicide bombings or while the IDF would have been fighting them.
Another succesful operation by the Israeli Air Force.
And that’s all I’ll say about it.

Here, I got the info about him on the IDF website. Sorry for the rest of you guys, it’s in Hebrew:(
And to Munir all I can say is this:
Ruch min un!:D
