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

[Persian Gulf]

CENTCON: all missiles intercepted

Kuwait airport now:

Kuwait just opened this airport terminal a few days ago, and now it’s destroyed again

They could just tell the U.S. to stop attacking Iran from Kuwaiti territory, but it seems that’s too difficult for them

this happened during the war

Aren't you still at war though

Patriot interceptor malfunctions and commits seppuku

It was always an overrated system. Now also fatigue showing its toll.

 

[SecularNationalist]

Confirmed precise destruction of aircraft hangar at U.S. base in Kuwait plus severe damage to Kuwait airport

CENTCOM: all missiles and drones were intercepted

American systems aren't overrated. This excuse only degrades Iran's technology by claiming the opposition are overrated. The Iranians took all the right lessons from all the US wars from 1991 to 2026, and rightly developed effective counter-measures.

SN: I used to read some Pakistani members here and on Reddit who used to criticize Iran's policy of support to other groups across the Middle East. They used to dishonestly compare the Takfiris b0mbing, beheading, and other atrocities against your average Pakistanis with the Zainubiyon fighters that came back to Pakistan after their tours in Syria (which they were mostly used to guard religious shrines). I wonder who financially backed these arguments where you can't even count on single hand if any of the Shia fighters blowing up marketplaces or committing suicide bombing against their own Muslim populations unlike the Takfiris (creation of UAE, Qatar, Saudis, Is3e1) to destroy millennium of Islamic history that the Iranian allies and forces had preserved.

Kuwait, UAE, and Bahrain are very vulnerable to future Iranian attacks. I don't even consider them as 'nations'. But my guess is that they are unable to ask the Americans to leave. But also consider any major American presence in those countries: They too would be very vulnerable to Iranian attacks and the Iranians would know a war is coming again if there be movements of American naval assets to the region and the American bases in those countries evacuated. In short, the American bases would be a liability to the Americans themselves!

What if the Iraqi PMU's just walk into kuwait n take it..............Its a piece of cake. The entire GCC is just so defenseless its not even funny.

My hunch is that if these guys in the GCC keep allowing the US and Israel repeated access to attack Iran, then invasion is the next step on the escalation ladder.

It'll be a disaster if it reaches that level of escalation.

This is how frustrated and defeated Trump is. He has now resorted to calling Khamenei a homesexual.

Exclusive | Trump predicts meeting with Iran’s probably gay Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei: ‘Getting along quite well’

Trump would have quit this war and moved on a long time ago but is trapped by Netanyahu and AIPAC.

Speaking of 'cake', the older ones remember Iraq 2003 was supposed to be a 'cake walk' or was that some mention of 'yellow cake' ?

"You are serving Israel!" as Rubio got heckled! Plus Rep. DeLauro really grilling Rubio.
Iran, Gaza and Lebanon conflicts are all one conflict and Ms. DeLauro is rightly connecting them.

Not sure if people are aware, but lightening can strike twice. That is some hardluck for any aviator. Lucky that he survived both shoot-downs.

Pilot of fighter jet downed over Iran previously shot down in Kuwaiti incident​

Fighter pilot downed over Iran was previously shot down in Kuwaiti incident, sources say 01:23

The pilot of the F-15E fighter jet downed over Iran was also flying one of the jets shot down at the start of the war by Kuwaiti friendly fire, two people familiar with the incidents tell CBS News.

Just over 30 days after safely ejecting during the friendly fire incident, the pilot was on a mission over Iran when the jet was hit by a surface-to-air missile, prompting a daring rescue operation.

The pilot's dual shootdowns were first reported by national security reporter Sean Naylor in his Substack The High Side.

In the opening days of the war, the pilot was among six aircrew members who safely ejected after three F-15E Strike Eagles were mistakenly shot down by Kuwaiti air defenses — specifically, a Kuwaiti fighter jet — over Kuwait in a friendly fire incident. Remarkably, just weeks later, the pilot was again forced to eject when the F-15E they were flying was shot down by an Iranian missile on April 3.

CBS News previously reported that the pilot, who sustained serious injuries, was rescued after several hours, and the second crew member was rescued after nearly two days in hiding.

"The courage demonstrated by both the pilot and the weapons system officer while isolated and them evading the enemy cannot be overstated," Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dan Caine said during an April briefing at the White House after the two had been rescued.

"Their grit and warfighting tenacity is a direct result of the absolute trust they have in our rescue forces, their training and their will to survive and return," Caine said.

The Pentagon referred questions to U.S. Central Command, which declined to comment.

"It is a highly unusual coincidence," said Retired Air Force Lt. Gen. David Deptula, who is the Dean of the Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies and was the principal attack planner for the air campaign for Operation Desert Storm, during the 1990-1991 Gulf War.


Deptula told CBS News in a phone interview that he couldn't think of a pilot being shot down in separate incidents during the same campaign since potentially as far back as the Vietnam War.

"It's like getting hit by lightning twice," Deptula said.
