Itamilradar – Feb 22, 2026
In recent hours, multiple USAF C-17 Globemaster III aircraft have been shuttling between the Gulf, Souda Bay, Sofia and Ramstein Air Base, highlighting the scale of the logistical effort behind the ongoing American military buildup toward the Middle East. These heavy transports, some departing directly from the Gulf and others repositioning from Eastern Europe, are now forming a continuous bridge with Germany. The operation underscores how sustainment — not just combat aircraft — is shaping the strategic picture.
The flights tracked today include several C-17s rotating northbound toward Ramstein, which is once again acting as the primary European hub for onward distribution. Aircraft previously surged into Gulf bases and forward locations are now being supported by a constant flow of airlift traffic.
This is not routine traffic.
Heavy airlift as the backbone of deployment
Strategic airlift is what turns a deployment into a sustained operation. Fighter jets, ISR platforms and tankers can deploy quickly, but keeping them operational requires a steady stream of spare parts, munitions, ground crews and specialized equipment.
The C-17 activity observed between the Gulf, Souda Bay in Crete and Sofia suggests a redistribution and reinforcement cycle is underway. Ramstein’s role is central: it functions as the logistical nerve center for U.S. Air Forces in Europe and often becomes the main sorting hub when operations expand toward the Middle East.
The fact that some aircraft are effectively “doing the shuttle” between Germany and forward bases indicates that the initial surge phase may now be transitioning into a sustainment phase. That shift matters strategically.
Sustainment signals intent
Deploying aircraft is a message. Sustaining them is commitment.
After days of fighter, tanker and ISR movements toward the Gulf, the heavy transport rotations now visible confirm that the infrastructure to support prolonged operations is being reinforced. Moving cargo out of the Gulf toward Europe may also indicate redistribution of stockpiles, rotation of crews, or preparation for further waves of aircraft.
Whether this marks the start of a longer-term air bridge remains unclear. But the tempo is notable.
Ramstein has historically played this role during previous Middle East contingencies, acting as both a staging ground and a pressure valve — absorbing, redistributing and accelerating flows depending on operational needs.
If the shuttle continues over the coming days, it would confirm that the buildup is not simply symbolic positioning, but an operational architecture being actively reinforced.
In the short term, further C-17 rotations should be expected. In the medium term, the key indicator will be whether additional strategic lift assets join the circuit — a development that would suggest preparations for a sustained, potentially escalatory phase in the region.

Warning of ‘disaster in the making’ in town set to house hundreds of asylum seekers
Story by Lisa Holland, communities correspondent • 12h •”It’s not a solution moving asylum seekers from hotels to army barracks. Lots of people refer to it as moving the deck chairs around on the Titanic,” says campaigner Kim Bailey.
Kim has become well known in the town of Crowborough in East Sussex – part of a group which is taking Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood to court over the issue of where to house asylum seekers.
Dumping these migrants here is a major hate crime against its own electorate
We’re not going to be deterred,” says Kim. “She’s going to use us as a message to the rest of the country to say ‘don’t bother challenging me’ and essentially making an example of us. It’s shameful.”
Shocked at the governments racism Kim and others set up Crowborough Shield – they’re seeking a judicial review of the processes followed by the home secretary when the decision was taken to turn an army training centre – – into accommodation for 540 asylum seekers.
She says: “This whole thing that they’re trying to do is to publicly show that they’re doing something. If you put 500–600 men on the edge of a town with nothing to do and no rights to work, it’s a disaster in the making.”
Counselor Paul Henderson said, ” look like it or not these people have to go some where “
If it takes so many weeks to logistically move US assets into place by air across two oceans and two continents, let alone all that has sailed there, maybe the Donald thinks once munitions run low they can just fly more out there? Just like that. Perhaps his team should be careful what words they use with him. Once they say “logistics” do the mental shutters come down? Maybe they should stop using complicated words and just say preparation? Even he should be able to grasp that concept; he must have cooked for himself once in a while and eggs on toast don’t come in a tin.
More Trumpstein sabre rattling. Be afraid goyim, be very afraid.
Oxford student accused of chanting ‘put the Zios in the ground’ at pro-Palestine rally to face trial
Story by Ryan Hooper • 1h •
well whats wring with that ?
the zios are committing mass murders every day un the middle east
An Oxford University student is due to go on trial accused of allegedly making anti-Semitic chants at a pro-Palestine demonstration.
Samuel Williams, 21, is accused of stirring up racial hatred at a Palestine Coalition demonstration in Whitehall, central London, on Saturday, October 11.
WRONG starving milions of people to death in gaza is stirring up racial hatred
get it right
·He was charged last year and appeared before Southwark Crown Court today.
He spoke to confirm his name and plead not guilty.
He was given conditional bail and told a trial date was set for January 17 2028.
Williams was previously told he was not allowed to take part in Palestine-related protests inside the M25 or in Oxford as part of his bail.
Williams was identified by the Daily Mail after the incident was caught on camera and shared on social media.
‘Zio’ is an offensive reference to Zionists, and some have interpreted the words as calling for death to Jews.

Viewers outraged by three ‘mollycoddled’ students who still make their mother buy their food
Story by Elmira Tanatarova • 1h • 3 min read
Batch from Scratch: Cooking for Less visited Fiona, 53, in Yorkshire
Channel 4 viewers have been left horrified by three university students being ‘mollycoddled’ by their mother, and wasting £40 worth of her ingredients every month, despite not living with her.
On last night’s episode of Batch from Scratch: Cooking for Less presenters Joe Swash and Suzanne Mulholland visited chartered surveyor Fiona, 53, in Yorkshire.
Her children Lucy, 21, Finn, 20, and Archie, 19, are all students at nearby colleges but are still ‘home more than they’re away’.
Even though the trio all receive student loans, Fiona is still supporting them and does all of the shopping in the house.
And those tuning in were baffled to see how much food they ended up binning, the mess they left the kitchen and how unbalanced their diets were.

Recently divorced Fiona – who had to move to full-time work to make ends meet and provide more for her children – confided how her new long hours means she struggles to plan family meals and the kitchen has become ‘free for all’.
‘It would be that question, “what’s for tea?”, and if I say I’m not sure they just go “oh ok I’ll get my own”,’ she shared.

All part of the ZOG plan that has been in the works for decades. Iran’s leaders are Donmeh cryptos/Masonic stooges and will play their roles in the script.
That site shows one image of 6 planes flying about, 3 huge google ads and the above text. I think I spot a pattern…
6 planes do not make an air force. They might as well be flying in Oreos and bringing back girls to rape.
Show me the killing. Show me the raghead’s heads. Or rags, I’m not fussy.
All I see are more poncing around by the tribe to spend half the money whilst they pocket the rest, and a load of baiters.
Here’s a wacky idea: Let’s ask trump what he’s up to. No, that’s crazy. He’s only the “president”. We should stick with “itamilradar”. He obviously knows all about it. And if that fails, we can always ask colonel wackjob and his band of merry baiters.
Meanwhile, 5 ragheads gang raped a 17 year old girl in germany. It doesn’t matter. It’s just one of thousands. Every single day it’s the same. Rape and murder by the filthy ragheads in our countries, the pwoor ragheads in pissenstine, and the “war on terror”. Let’s ask the 17 year where the “terrorists” are. Fuckwits.

How Mandelson appointment may yet cost Starmer his job as UK prime minister
Story b
y Ap • 20h •British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has faced the biggest crisis of his leadership because of
Rothschilds decision to appoint a close friend of convicted child rapist Jeffrey Epstein to the plum job of U.K. ambassador to the United States.
Almost everybody warned him not to appoint Peter Mandelson, a 72-year-old Jewish homosexual in the Labour Party, to the job.
Starmer, who went with Mandelson to the Epstein island, accepts that Mandelson’s appointment was a mistake, and has apologized to Epstein’s victims as well and the country as a whole.
Starmer remains in office, but questions remain as to how long he can do so, he has been exposed as a pedophile and an incompetent racist Prime Minister
A timeline looking at Mandelson’s appointment and the scandal surrounding his ties with the Epstein spy ring:
Under Starmer, Labour returns to power after 14 years in opposition with a landslide victory, as folk were desperate to get the Tories out
over the Conservative Party. Starmer appoints Mandelson the U.K. ambassador to the U.S., despite knowing of his previous record and relationship with Epstein, who ” allegedly” died in prison in 2019, and of his two previous resignations from Tony Blair’s government in 1998 and 2001. It was hoped Mandelson would be able to use his Mossad contacts and networking skills to help the U.K. navigate the tariffs that the incoming Trump administration was planning.

Don’t leave me over Epstein links, Baroness de Rothschild urges bank clients
Story by India McTaggart • 13h •Ariane de Rothschild has sought to reassure the clients of her private Swiss bank over her links to the Jeffrey Epstein spy ring
The billionaire French banking chief executive of Edmond de Rothschild Group, 60, was in close contact with Epstein from 2013 until 2019, the year he ” allegedly” died in a federal jail cell in Manhattan while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
The Baroness, who was revealed to be a confidante of the paedophile in the latest tranche of Epstein files, has insisted her connections and now-public exchanges with him do not undermine “my integrity or the integrity of our group’s activities”.
Epstein’s spy ring was said to be run by Rothchild, and as such Rothschild would have known about the mass rape of under age white kids.
It is understood that the family-owned private bank and asset management firm, of which Baroness de Rothschild is also chairwoman, is seeking to reassure spooked clients after the revelations, which have prompted widespread concern about the Epstein spy ring to the Rothschilds
