Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

[Oldenwisdom...قول بزرگ]

Land invasion

This rescue is anything but a glimpse... a sustained long war will become untenable if the losses started mounting and each one had to be rescued this way.

Remember this was done to avoid the ensuing optics, generated by the invasion that seeks to keep the aura... a billion could have been dispensed right here to save face.
Ones with an aura problem seldom get their boots dirty... and do it only if they absolutely must!

Interesting enough; the propaganda outlet ISW is reporting that April 4th, Israel destroyed a S-300 position in Tehran province.

The combined force has continued to degrade Iranian air defense capabilities to maintain air dominance in Iran. The IDF struck an S-300 surface-to-air (SAM) air defense site in Kahrizak, Tehran Province, on April 4.

Which makes me believe that video we saw two days ago of an “Iranian BM” being launched inside Tehran was probably another S-300 launcher or AD system, indicating that Tehran still has some AD systems left

Propaganda value my friend, Mr. Trump doesn't care about the single pilot or airman, there are confirmed reports of 100s of US casualties on US bases all around the GCC all for the sake of Netanyahu, but Trump doesn't even acknowledge or honor their sacrifice, he doesn't care.

Last report I saw, which was a day or so ago, was 350 or 360 US service personnel have been injured to date.

I would say that President Trump absolutely cares a lot more about US servicemen and women than his immediate predecessor did.

You should tell that to the Iranians who put out those AI generated vids.

Still better than Trump who claimed US obliterated Iran's military yet still can't find the exit.

The latest news is that we found him.

yes, we are in the other thread over here https://defencepk.com/forums/forums/us-defence.67/

Sure. So, where is that Iranian 'stealth' fighter?

Lots of conflicting reports on how they found the pilot:



But Babak is a Mossad propaganda mouthpiece

Barak makes ship up,

1. US source told me
2. Senior official told me
3. Two officials told me

Most of the times he is making shit up by himself for propaganda.

You keep saying “deep” inside Iran.

Lordegan is like 200KM from Iraqi border. It’s also apart of the Zargos mountain chain. You act like he fell in middle of Isfahan and hid in a trash can.

What do you consider to be deep inside Iran? At approximately 124 miles inside the country, that would be deep enough to most people.

Only source for now and the one pic of a c-130 burning.

Behind enemy lines part 2 in the making...

Like I said, seems like Iran tried given its resources and the remote region.

"Military age males" meaning they killed whoever happened to be around that pilot, regardless of whether anyone knew anything. A lot of innocent people were slaughtered and more expensive planes were lost so that Trump could have a Hollywood ending.

I get the disappointment as this is a tactical loss for Iran but bear in mind how expensive this rescue of a single pilot in a remote area was in an overall un-necessary and optional war.

How does it matter to US "winning" too much?

Nitpicking on smaller issues, to distract from the larger issues at hand. Typical American.

Guys, the euphoria of this operation will probably be forgotten in a week or two when oil prices go to 150 dollars

Also dont forget. Iran might get a 2nd chance of this. And a third and fourth...
Iranian airdefence seem to be adapting to the battlefield in real time, and its not inconceivable a few more jets will be taken out.

Regardless, it wont change the equation.

The Christians on this day of Easter are fighting a war for the Jews that crucified their God (according to their own sources )

Make it make sense

Jews rejected prophet Isa as Messiah, they beleived Messiah has not yet appeared and will not return..... and shame on Christians Fighting a War for Israel.

This makes it clear. Iran was simply launching drones and missiles at fixed targets indicated by Chinese and Russian satellites.
It has been exposed that they completely lack the real operational capability to intercept an enemy that changes position and invades on a changing battlefield.
They committed a major blunder by easily losing an air base in a crucial region that produces 90% of their crude oil, and allowing it to be used as a forward base.
Iran wasted two days without even realizing that the base had been seized.
It goes without saying what will happen when the US military starts a ground battle.
