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

[Master Chief]

This is the wreckage from a breakup, which basically belongs to the category of an aircraft exploding in mid-air and crashing as a result. If it were blown into this state using explosives on purpose, it would take at least one ton of explosives, and they'd need to be placed in the right spots.

Who said it was only bombed with explosives? I thought it was struck from the air as well after the personnel were extracted.

Personally, the US account is entirely believable.

I would imagine the C130 became stuck or unable to safely take off ("stuck" in the context of this doesn't necessarily mean it was sinking in mud!). I would further speculate that 2 helis became stricken due to small arms ground fire and so were rolled into the explosion box manually or with movement aids (presumably they come prepared for such circumstances in CSAR missions).

Then with all assets together, they place their bombs, evacuate on other aircraft, and follow up with an airstrike. Just my speculation, but I do believe that Iranian ground fire was limited to some small arms fire in this case.

The us deep state and military should get rid of him and send him to jail . That's how we do things in Pakistan

Yes but in Pakistan they care mostly for the country's interests, in the u.s. however they care for another state

If Iranians have the "Kachaa" of US Pilot then where did he go?

 

[UKBengali]

Somehow the U.S. was able to land several large planes near Esfahan

Then had time to bring in new planes as well

don't be surprised if Trump now authorises commando raids into IRGC-ASF SSM bases. if they can send hundreds of special forces 40km south of Esfahan without being detected for hours, they can already reach dozens of SSM bases easily.

Difference is that at least the most important Iranian SSM bases would not be used to protected by Iranian commandos.

The difference is that the US knew where to go to get their missing pilot better than Iran. With SSM bases, Iran would just be waiting for US to come to them.

**** Iranians, faking bots..fak u alll...How come u missed that baddie...cuteeee

that could have been best prize ever for Iranians. white folks in USA would've burnt to death.

Oh mannnnnn

You gotta be kidding here. Pvt Jessica Lynch of West Virgina was a pow in Iraq in 2003. But this story reflects that Hollywood style story.

Former prisoner of war Jessica Lynch shares her story of resilience | ASU News

When Jessica Lynch stood behind the podium on Monday at the Paul C. Helmick Center on ASU's Tempe campus, she didn't look like someone who’s been through war. Petite, soft-spoken, with a teacher’s warmth in her smile, she greeted the crowd with a touch of humor.“It’s such an honor to be here...

How do we know that no americans were killed or severely wounded in this alleged "rescue operation". Are we supposed to believe the epstein media?

Their are already reports of casualties amongst the Americans

Iranian Military f*cd up. US landed 2-C 130s ,that they needed to drop off the vehicles and equipment that was used to search and rescue and to fight. Regarding the C-130s I doubt they expected them to get airborne again.-Essentially crash landing them according to some reports like I said to get heavy machinery in and then abandoning/ blowing up the whole equipment on the way out.


The Iranian authorities response was insane, encouraged local population to go and capture this pilot. Those who were driving for the pilot got totally annihilated by C130 fire. And Mq9 reapers airstrikes . There are shocking reports coming out that the Americans airstrikes cleared the whole area of villages to reduce the threat to this rescue.

Sure, sounds like a very American narrative, and right now Iran seems to be more accurate when giving out info. US Centcom not even admitted to that destroyed E-3 yet....

 

[Master Chief]

The ground looks dry, solid sandy, no mud, unlikely those cargo planes got stuck by landing. Because they are expensive I don’t think the US special forces destroyed them for fun,
so the possibility (1) those planes were damaged by missiles or gun shots.
(2) they carried something, left them behind, destroying the evidence.

(3) they simply couldn't take off again.

Second Mf rescued and recovered by US ?? I just woke up please give me some good news.
That would be shameful for Iran if he leaves alive.

disappointing but not shameful. considering the number of planes and helicopters damaged or completely destroyed since the F0-15 was shot down.

as said the area is rugged and very hard to travel even with vehicles due to remoteness. consider Pakistani/ Afghan Tribal belt.

Americans and Israelis bragged about destroying Iranian air defence and with that "destroyed weapons" Iranians managed to shoot down F-15 and a good number of helicopters and planes that came to help with rescue efforts.

please consider this what the Iranian forces are up against. when even surviving the aggression was a big achievement itself.
there are not many examples of such resilience and dedication.

pray that Israel, Americans and their GCC allies are humiliated and humbled more in the coming days.

Maybe the Aircrafts were DAMAGED by Iranians to the point they were not airworthy or feared so. This utter destruction seen in photos and videos is indeed consequence of US completely destroying them so they wouldn't be captured by Iran. Some truth on both sides of the story.

1. No information on the fate of the crews of the C-130s. Unverified reports of a C-295 around the area. Apparently, there's a video of it too but I haven't been able to find it.
2. Unverified reports of another F-15 shot down near Tehran. Let's see what they can do this time.

US Media badly lied

"Stuck in the mud"

"Firefights with commandos"

its a plane crash site (hercules that crashed after missile hit) , several aircraft sent to the site got struck too.




no firefights happened too as hollywood media falsely claimed

That was pretty big, I have not seen an impact this large in israel, at least until now. This tops them all.
