@KeithASiegel @shanaka86 Came here for this comment specifically.

@shanaka86 F22 were not in service in 1991 or 2003

The United States has never deployed F-22 Raptors to Israel. Not during the Gulf Wars. Not during the 2024 strikes that destroyed every Iranian S-300 battery in a single night. Not during the June 2025 twelve-day war that hit three nuclear facilities with fourteen bunker busters. Until this week. Eleven F-22s are now sitting at Ovda Air Base in the Negev. Confirmed by satellite imagery. The first deployment of America’s premier air superiority fighter to Israeli soil in the history of both nations. You need to understand what the F-22 does that no other aircraft can do. It does not bomb targets. It kills the things that protect targets. Its radar cross section is smaller than a marble. It enters defended airspace invisible, maps every radar emission, and either destroys the air defense network or feeds its coordinates to the strike package following behind. In Venezuela, F-22s suppressed Russia’s S-300VM batteries so completely that not a single interceptor missile was launched. The entire Russian-built air defense network went dark without firing a shot. Iran rebuilt portions of its air defense with Russian assistance after the October 2024 strikes. The F-22 deployment to Israel is the answer to whatever Iran rebuilt. Now layer the logistics. 270 plus C-17 and C-5 transport flights to the Middle East since January. Four C-17 Globemasters landed at Nevatim Air Base on Thursday alone. Nevatim is where Israel’s F-35I Adir stealth fleet operates. Fourteen refueling tankers at Ben Gurion. 300 plus US military aircraft now in the CENTCOM theater. This is not a deterrence posture. Deterrence is a carrier offshore and a press statement. 270 transport flights is the logistics tail for sustained high-intensity operations. You build that supply chain when you expect to use it. The pattern is identical to June 2025 but at triple the scale. Then: B-2s from Diego Garcia, B-52s as cruise missile trucks, F-15Es for escort. Now: all of that plus F-22s in Israel for the first time, plus a second carrier, plus forward-deployed F-35s in Jordan, plus tanker fleets staged across three countries. Whatever is being planned is larger than what happened in June. Geneva collapsed Thursday. Iran rejected every demand. Rubio flies to Jerusalem Monday. Ambassador Huckabee told staff to leave today. Beijing told its citizens to evacuate Iran today. And eleven aircraft that exist solely to make air defenses disappear are parked in the desert 200 kilometers from the Iranian border, doing something they have never done in the 21-year operational history of the platform. You do not stage the first-ever F-22 deployment to Israel for deterrence. You stage it for what deterrence failed to prevent.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

@timomalleyND I understand it would take a lot of money to fire Shrewsberry at this point but I’m not sure how you can justify him continuing as head coach.

The Fieldhouse. The Athletic & Convocation Center. The Joyce Center. Purcell Pavilion. Duke 100 ND 56. The worst home loss in program history for Notre Dame. "Let's Go Duke!" chants REIGNING Down at the buzzer.

@AndrewMentock I think they already made them. They are nicknamed the Cowboys and they play their home games in Dallas, Texas.

Thoughts on creating the “Notre Dame of the NFL?” 🤔

Wouldn’t expect anything less from Lou who has been a fighter since he was born! Prayers for Lou and his family.

Clown show program right now. It’s beyond repair. No leadership on the floor because leadership off the floor appears totally checked out. If the scuttlebutt that’s building is at all in the realm of truth (multiple reliable sources) they need to make an announcement ASAP.

@Enquirer Update: it’s been traded for cash considerations.

@financedystop Never buy a cheesesteak from a sub shop. That's on you.

His daughter DoorDashed a cheesesteak from Jersey Mike’s. He’s not impressed, too much bread, not enough steak. The brand was bought by private equity in 2025

@PeteSampson_ Pete, I’m having fun again.

According to 247 Sports, Notre Dame's 29 high school commitments combined with its 7 additions in the transfer portal gives the Irish the No. 1 overall incoming class nationally.

@BradPowers7 Update?

Zero transfer portal signings. Accused of battery. Continued NFL flirtation. Honeymoon officially over.

@PeteSampson_ @Padre___Pio IYKYK 🤣

@Padre___Pio I’ll have a film review later (not really)

As Notre Dame prepares to add portal talent, the Irish are in strong position to get former five-star wide out Quincy Porter from Ohio State, per sources. Played in just four games as a freshman, 4 catches for 59 yards. Good fit (6-4, 210) among available wide outs.

@PeteSampson_ This is getting comical at this point.

Another Notre Dame transfer portal target off the board. Daley visited South Bend this week. He played for Kyle Whittingham at Utah.

Oh, hi there.

@4karmel @PeteSampson_ 🤔 Maybe as frail as the folks who don’t know how to take a joke.

@ArchiveIrish @PeteSampson_ My goodness some of y'all are so unrelentingly frail

Notre Dame hoped to get Strong to campus this week for a visit. Could have been a boundary receiver boost.

@PeteSampson_ I am not having fun, Pete. Your profile said this is supposed to be fun. 🤣

Reserve receiver KK Smith into the portal for Notre Dame. One-time Texas Tech commit.

@GMJ_23 @SlapTheSign Correct. It was reported he turned it down.

@SlapTheSign I could be trippin but I swear it was already out there that he Washington turned down BC?

Notre Dame fans might have to worry about another assistant leaving the Irish this winter Read more: slapthesign.com/notre-dame-foo…
