    “It cannot be claimed that the UK is not at war, or is only at war in some limited sense Starmer has dreamed up. And certainly not at the same time as a government department is literally posting video evidence to the contrary. This patronising charade has gone on long enough”

  5. #Declassified:

    #starmer's #iran war cover-up

    We visited #RAFfairford in #Gloucestershire on Tuesday to investigate how Donald Trump is using this airbase to bomb Iran.

    Screens had been put up behind the fences to restrict visibility and several roads closed, limiting access to journalists and members of the public.

    However by using a ladder and some ingenuity, we were able to see pallets of 2,000lb bombs being loaded onto American B-1 war planes bound for Iran

  7. There doesn’t appear to be any easing of the #US military built-up targeted against #Iran with more #F22 transiting through UK airfields. But access to #UK facililties is restricted, m ore so with the latest round:

    “The U.K. is blocking U.S. use of two key bases for an attack on Iran, according to a report by The Times. Both Diego Garcia, an island in the Indian Ocean, and RAF Fairford, a base in the U.K., would be important to any American plans to use long-range bombers in a sustained campaign against Iran.”

  15. Extra Flugzeugbau EA-300L, Royal Jordanian Air Force. Originally designed by Walter Extra, a German aerobatic pilot and first flown in 1987, the EA-300 swiftly established a fine reputation on the world aerobatics scene. Rapid acceleration in the dive and crisp control responses marked this out as an excellent aerobatic aircraft. Here we see the Royal Jordanian Falcons, mounted on their EA-300L aircraft performing at the Royal International Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford. #RAFFairford #RIAT #RoyalInternationalAirTattoo #aircraft #aviation #avgeek #aviationphotography #photography #airdisplay #airdisplay #aerobatics #Extraflugzeugbau #WalterExtra #EA300 #RoyalJordanianAirForce #aerobaticdisplayteam #Jordan
