"Nightmare from the movies": Was this the real target of the Flydubai plane?

Prof. Yaniv Erlich hypothesizes that the attempted takeover of a Flydubai plane was intended to target a strategic American base in Jordan, rather than a random crash or hijacking. Erlich links this to a report of an Iranian attack attempt on a base in Britain, warning of a broader plot to harm Israel and the US.

Prof. Yaniv Erlich has raised an unusual hypothesis regarding the purpose of the incident on the Flydubai flight to Israel. According to him, the location where the incident began, at a cruising altitude of about 33,000 feet over a desert area, raises questions. Erlich dismisses scenarios of a random crash or hijacking, and suggests that the real target was the Muwaffaq Salti base in Jordan, which hosts an American presence. He links this to a report of an Iranian attack attempt on the RAF Fairford base in Britain, and warns of a broader plot to target strategic bases of the US and Israel. Erlich notes that the incident was prevented thanks to luck and the courage of civilians.
