There may be a price to pay but you can be sure the Saudis will be relieved that Israel has removed the nuclear threat for now |

Iran claims to have shot down a F-35I and captured the female pilot - may be propaganda - IDF denying it at present

About the only thing the strikes on Iran will guarantee is that they will now be going all out to manufacture a nuclear weapon.

I don't think that's an F-15I. Looks like a single seat F-15C. Interesting that it has an air-to-surface capability.

Nowhere near F-15E abilities, but a bit more than USAF F-15C (hardly ever used) are capable of. |

Yes. Reminiscent of a deranged and desperate Hitler's use of the V-weapons on London.

So do we think there’s any truth in the claims that two F35s were shot down last night?
BV |
No.
There's no mention of it on the Press TV homepage, or on Al Jazeera. I would think there'd at least be a story in both of those publications and some pictures if it were true. |

Sky are the first western source (that I have noticed) to mention it. Israel have denied it. It would be very embarrassing if it subsequently turned out to be true. BV |
It was noted on the Guardian's feed yesterday, along with the Israeli denial. One would imagine the Iranians would release some footage of the wreck and/or captured pilot PDQ given its propaganda value, so I reckon if we hear nothing more today it probably is BS.

Iran state media site Fars News Agency posted it and claimed it to be true. We'll see.

I also think it is very unlikely to be true. I just found it interesting that Sky picked it up despite denials from Israel. I was not so surprised by the numerous other sources that carried the story.

"Well he would, wouldn't he?"

While being cross-examined at Ward's trial, when James Burge, the defence counsel, pointed out that Lord Astor denied an affair or even having met her, she dispatched this swiftly with pert humour, "Well he would, wouldn't he?" Often misquoted in other contexts as: "Well he would say that, wouldn't he?",[9] by 1979, this phrase had entered the third edition of the Oxford Dictionary of Quotations, and is occasionally referred to with the abbreviation MRDA ("Mandy Rice-Davies applies"). |
