I found that the Swedish Gripen had 66% by 2014.
Here is a very good break down of events at October 7 from the confused perspective of IOF:

They go through Israeli witness statements from an Ynet article and cross examine them with other reporting on friendly Israeli fire. The picture that emerges is one of complete confusion and incompetence.
The Electronic Intifada (Dec 20, 2023) - Israel is lying about the number of its casualties in Gaza:

Hint: Israel only report 15% of casualties.
Is Trisa a lib? Yes. Was he wrong when he said that sanctions will not help protesters? No. These sanctions were sold to the public as a way to help regime change in Iran and he was correct in pointing out that it wouldn’t.
The same with the analysis that Biden’s Gaza policy hurts his chances to win against Trump.
Trista is a Swede/Iranian working in the US. As an foreign policy expert, he is generally critical of the US empire and how stupid its diplomatic efforts are in regards to especially Iran.
I appreciate that he is always factually correct and refrain from spin such as calling Hamas and Hezbollah “terror organizations” which is common elsewhere in the West.
He is also willing to say things we “know” that other “experts” try to avoid. In the above example, he rightly assumes that the assassination was carried out by Israel even though we will likely never have convulsive evidence of that.
When it comes to predictions and the quality of his analysis, he tend to be OK. He often gives personalities and individuals more importance for shaping world events than I’d care for but he is generally pessimistic that the US is going to be successful with its global affairs, diplomatic efforts and wars. I think he’s approach to International Relations is from an academic area studies which makes him less dogmatic.
You know that the reason was the guy holding the camera wanted the woman and the gun to be in frame. It makes sense that they don’t know anything about perspectives.
Israeli military cemetery directors revealed to Israeli media on Sunday that they are burying large numbers of Israeli soldiers killed, especially after the ground invasion of Gaza.

Rights group to prosecute Labour’s Starmer for complicity in Israel’s war crimes in Gaza
International Centre of Justice for Palestinians (ICJP) has today issued UK Labour leader Keir Starmer, Shadow Attorney General for England and Wales Emily Thornberry and Shadow Defence Secretary David Lammy with a notice of intention to prosecute UK politicians for their role in aiding and abetting Israel’s perpetration of war crimes.
Israeli army shooting Hamas’ hostages. Did not allow them to use them as leverage for safe passage to Gaza:
Sorry, I just did a lib-thing but oh boy it felt good! Apparently, the EU Commission is not allowed to represent the EU on any foreign policy stuff according to its charters (Title 2, Article 17, Code of Conduct for the Members of the European Commission). But we have all seen Ursula von der Leyen hug mass murdering Israel as if it was Santa and do all kind of foreign policy stuff.

So I dug up the charter and emailed the Commission with my most lib lawyer voice I could muster and told them that they need to cease and desist their constitutional overstep. Pointed out that in my country, it carries a 2 years prison sentence for not following the expected constraints of a public office.
I’m almost completely sure that nothing happens but let se if “rule based order” also include the rules that they have made for themselves :) (yeah, it won’t but I’ll take any number that is greater than 0%)

Very good breakdown of tactics and equipment Hamas used to stunning effect the first day:

Worse than Auschwitz…
…there is no military solution to Israel’s problem with Gaza, nor to the resistance that naturally emerges as a response to violent apartheid.
This is not Soviet doctrin. It’s more like Hezbolla doctrin. Basically, it is the way you fight if you dont have an airforce and not enough artillary.
BBC doing something good?
