IDF paratroopers in action

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Paratroopers Brigade recently staged a brigade-level parachute jump, for the first time in more than 15 years. This kind of jump is deemed necessary for any future conflicts far from Israel, when troops might need to be parachuted into enemy territory.

“We are restoring a capability that we once had,” Paratroopers Brigade commander Col. Amir Baram told reporters ahead of the jump which was done from Israel Air Force C-130 Hercules transport aircraft over the Negev Desert.

“We cannot know what will happen in the changing Middle East and every western military which respects itself needs to know how to parachute large forces, bring them back together and then launch an attack,” he added.

    You ask for my thoughts what do they weight ? G-D’s thoughts are much more valuable and much more numerous . Messiah has come Daniel 9. For G-D so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosover shall believe in Him shall not perish but have everlasting Life . The storm is coming the book of revelation tells us about it… who will heed ???
