Cold War Vehicle I-D: ‘Bombing-up’ your F-80 Shooting Star in Korea!

Video

Cold War: Approximately 1947 (due to U.S. President Harry Truman’s Truman Doctrine) to 1991 (Operation Desert Storm, collapse of Soviet Union).

Lockheed F-80 Shooting Star, developed at the end of World War Two.

In June 1950, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (north) invaded the Republic of Korea (south) in an attempt to unite the country (something that had been promised at the end of World War Two).  The recently created United Nations essentially declared war and created the United Nations Command, invading Korea in September 1950.  The United Nations Command still operates in South Korea, today.

Date and location not given, very likely to be Kimpo Air Base, 1950.

The F-80 had up to six Browning M3 .50 caliber (12.7mm x 99mm) machine guns.

General Purpose (GP) bombs.

I edited this silent USAF film (by H. E. Reid) showing the re-arming/re-fueling of F-80s on Kimpo, Korea, 19DEC1950:

U.S. DoS halts weapons deliveries to Israel! Says Israel has killed too many civilians!

Video

On 08MAY2024, the U.S. Department of State (DoS) explained why Department of Defense (DoD) weapon shipments to Israel are being temporarily suspended; it is all about Israel’s killing of civilians and the expected invasion of Rafah in The Gaza Strip!

Part-1, the U.S. does not support full invasion:

Part-2, Israel has failed to meet humanitarian demands, U.S. wants Palestinian Authority to take control of Gaza, U.S. say Hamas is an ‘ancient’ movement against Israel even though Hamas is only three and a half decades old:

Part-3, White House continues to whitewash acts of genocide, Biden might adopt Trump’s anti-International Criminal Court policy, claims students’ so-called right to go to school (which there is none) overrides the Right to freedom of expression (1st Amendment):

 

False Flag: ISRAEL BOMBS EX-U.S. BASE IN IRAQ?

International

False Flag? Israel bombs ex-U.S. base in Iraq?

The former U.S. Forward Operating Base (FOB) Kalsu, or  Contingency Operating Station (COS) Kalsu (also incorrectly referred to by the news media as Kalso, the base was named after First Lieutenant James Robert Kalsu) suffered massive explosions, the based was placed under Iraqi control in 2011, an Iraqi government sponsored militia shares the base with Iraqi military troops (many ‘western’ news sources also say Iran supports the same militia).

Arab news media is reporting at least 20 casualties, including civilians.  A Popular Mobilization Force (PMF, aka Al-Hashd Al-Sha’bi, aka Popular Mobilization Units, aka Popular Mobilization Committee) militiaman was killed, six wounded.

So far, there is no mention of the attack by either Iraqi or Iranian news media.  The Iraqi militia PMF claims they have launched a retaliatory drone attack on Israel.  The United States controls the airspace over Iraq, yet U.S. officials essentially said ‘we see nothing, we know nothing’.

A Shite news outlet, called Sabreen News, said the supposed Israeli air-raid destroyed an Iraqi radar installation.

The official Communist Chinese news media reports the Iraqi base was attacked by drones, it also says the Iraqi PMF militia is investigating the cause of the explosions and will retaliate if it is determined that it was an attack and not an accident.

In February 2024, the Brookings Institute published an article stating that the PMF was Iran-ifying Iraq.
