I know what I wrote] The IDF intelegence deny that happened as the CIA asked them not to disclose it. The world was afraid that Nixon had gone off the deep end and would use SAC Bombers already airborn 24 hours a day and fire the misiles in the Silos at the Russians as he warned them he would if they did what you say. There is no declasified information on Russian Pilots flying missions for the Arab side to this day. There are of course the rhumors that it happened but no IAF pilot, no Arab Pilot, and no Soviet Pilot has come forward about such to this day. Stop inventing stories and reporting unprovable things. Bottom [snip. Lost patience to correct what's below after the line above. ] Despite your baseless claims, it had LONG SINCE beed declassified and appeared in books and papers. The book "The sky is not the limit" had been printed in 1990 and it includes this battle description, so the declassification came before 1990. Out of the 5 downed MiG-21s 3 were downed by Mirage-IIICJ and two by F-4E. The pilots of Mirages we Asher Snir, "Avik", Yiftah Spector and the pilots of F-4Es we Aviem Sela and Avihu Ben-Nun. Find the pilots and ask them :-) or do some "googling". You'll also probably get it at "http://www.iaf.org.il/" somewhere under "history". Unfortunately I can't access it at home - the site designers so heavily "optimized for MS IE" that my Netscape can't show it correctly. ************************************************** ************************** ** * Arie Kazachin, Israel, e-mail: * ************************************************** ************************** ** NOTE: before replying, leave only letters in my domain-name.

I found it for you. This is what was written in the old IAF site: http://www.iaf.org.il/iaf/doa_iis.dl...3.3.6.3.3.html One of the best known dogfights of the Israeli-Egyptian War of Attrition was the encounter with MiG-21's flown by Soviet pilots. On the afternoon hours of June 30th 1970, Israeli Phantoms attacked an Egyptian radar installation at Suhuna, near the Gulf of Suez, with other Phantoms and Mirages providing air cover. Soon enough, 6 quartets of Egyptian MiG-21's, flown by Soviet pilots, were scrambled against the Israelis. In a matter of seconds, the scene was that of a massive air brawl, which resulted in 5 MiG's being shot down - 3 by Mirages and 2 by Phantoms - Last week the IAF launched a new site and at least for now there isn't an English section in it. Here you can find confirmation for the downed soveit pilots story (in Hebrew): http://www.iaf.org.il/Templates/Airc...ntPageNumber=2 http://www.iaf.org.il/Templates/Airc...ntPageNumber=2 That was the issue that you posed and not what planes were involved. Is that why you simply snipped out your previous words and said you knew what you posted. Should I put back those quotes I retain the posts I download for the highest number of days one can enter in that option on OE, I think that is 9,999 days. My sent copies of all posts is automaticaly kept and I could find it there as well till I decide it is too old to bother keeping usually about 2 years for most posts and 3 for business emails sent out from here. I Also if I deem it important enough flag the sent message and my cleanup is done by a 2 rules in OE. Rule Sent CLean 1: In SENT folder if Message is flagged Stop executing message rules. Rule Sent CLean 2: In SENT folder if message older than 742 days Delete Message stop executing rules. Real easy to keep long enough and self clean every time I run OE. So I unlike you do know what I responded to and you seem to forgotten. As to 1990 My MS is is Comp Sci, but I hold an associates in Visual arts (NY School of Vissual Arts) and a BA in History. Every professor would have called 1990 still recently. The book was written and published (I do have a copy of it) in 1990, the source is documented and if you check the documentation out, the second step of researching a topic. That is one reads it in a footnoted or endnoted source and then goes to the source that the author used. You would find it was infact declasified only the prior year 1989. A source is in Historical Terms considered new or recent till it has had 20 years of reviewing for any mistakes by other historians. Now that would take that off the "recently" list in 2009 not before as I was taught. There are books out on the Battle of Britain written 10 years after the war using documents that were declasified rigfht after the War. Later many mistakes as to pertant facts still came out that proved the conculusions of those Historians wrong. I.E. the exact fighter capacity of the RAF at the time of the Munich Conference. The first set of documents indicated 20 times the number of fighters then were really there and usefull. That document came out just after the end of the war. 15 years later a military historian after talking with mechanics at various air fields at that time, found a flaw in how the numbers were generated. The document counted old WW I Biplanes and unarmed trainers as if they were viable fighters. Planes being scrapped at that time were also counted by the orders of the Air Marshal of the time. He believed their were Nazi Agents that had access to the documents and wanted them to think Britain was a lot better armed and ready than it was. That is why any good historian will 'think of anything available for less than 20 years as recent. Real good researching Historians usually leave anything of the last 20 years as "current events" as it is too knew to uncover the historical parts of it other then at the most trivial levels.' - Dr. Buchsbaumb U. Of Prague and Pace University after 1969. I used to have some of his books and attended 3 of his classes. He escaped from Hiltler and worked in British Intellegence during WWII and returned to his home in 1945 taught at Prague and during that famous spring of freedom published 2 books he had hidden from the Communists then as they fell to the Warsaw Pack was away on a lecture in London. He and his wife stayed out of that country and came to the USA. Apon my return and finishing Physical Rehab for the wounds in action in '67 I attended that school (Pace U) at their Pleasantville Campus (Westchester County NY) where he was teaching. He was one of my proffessors and my advisor. He gave "F" on papers that had too many sources under 20 years old. No topic that came into being during that 20 year window was ever accepted. I will abide by his definition of recent not yours, thank you. -- MattA ?subject=HepatitusC-Objectives Matt's Hep-C Story web pages are back at a home.
