War in Iran : Trump's latest misadventure

It wasn’t covert, but incredibly overt with A10’s gunning down iranians forces and etc.

Not sure what the Israelis are supposed to do covertly. The only mission that matters is the nuclear one with the HEU and that is far more precarious and probably time consuming.

I meant the Israeli’s can do the covert operations inside Iran now. Not that this operation was anything covert.

Maybe, maybe not. But I don’t see what they would risk with special forces and for which purpose. If there is a target, why not kill it ? Capture is super complicated. The nuclear mission also seem to call for the capabilities of the US and not the lesser capabilities of Israel, I suspect.

Sorry, but I can’t stand this LLM text, whatever factual points they have.

Impressive in very many ways. They landed several transport planes and helos right in front of the Iranians, who might never again get the chance to cause a mass casualty event of US forces like they had here. It clearly of course shows their military weakness.
Admirable ethically too in terms of not leaving anyone behind.
However, the cost of this op, blowing up your own planes and etc…

Alright so let me try to piece this together:

  1. F-15 gets shot down and pilots eject
  2. Search and rescue is activated
  3. A Forward Operating Base was set up inside Iran at some point.
  4. Both sides scramble to find the crew
  5. American plane and helicopters take fire
  6. An A-10 takes damage and crashes en route back to base (?)
  7. Pilot found, the weapons officer found later (much later)
  8. In departing the FoB, American assets are destroyed by themselves as they are apparently unable to leave (?)

Summary - Air crew rescued, no additional serious casualties. Serious loss in material from the moment that F-15 took off to the time the FoB was evacuated.

Executive Summary - Hollywood film companies, directors and actors have just had a collective orgasm.

Yes, and “hundreds” of special forces were deployed on the ground when I posted the video of the search, I read.

For some reason, they were landing special forces this morning too.

I share these thoughts. Material losses of aircraft should not be focused on a lot, because this particular operation was a smashing success that probably will incentivise Trump to get more daring in terms of deploying infantry inside Iran and maybe capture and hold ground.

(US has a massive surplus of these aircrafts, losing a few means very little, the military technical issue the US has is lack of munitions, not aircrafts and platforms). But the US is really, really hard pressed when it comes to advanced munitions.

I seem to have misplaced a post again above. Will delete and remove.

Anyway, this is on topic

So Israel, despite its vicious and indiscriminate destruction, is unable to subdue a seriously degraded Hezbollah without a supply-line? Excellent.

Extremely surprised that this is your take away from that post. It should be seen as a warning that Israeli leaders are not stupid, not as an indication of the strenght of Hezbollah, which is despised by everyone in Lebanon outside the Shia community these days.

Do you really not understand how dangerous this is for Lebanon as a country ? It’s not a game where your favorite group or what not fight Israel in a barren land, it is a country being destoyed because Hezbollah wants to wage war on own land. Maybe have more compasson for lebanese instead of cheering for fucking Hezbollah Shia jihadists who instigated this disaster. Without Hezbollah entering the war on the side of Iran, betraying Lebanon as it did so, this would not be happening and everyone knows that if they want to know it.
Israel is a mad dog unleashed with nothing that fetters it politically at the moment, and around mad dogs you are careful, you don’t provoke them. If you do, well then you are irresponsible. You certainly don’t do it unless you have to and you certainly do not provoke an invasion which could destroy your country (unless you are not a Lebanese resistance group, but so attached to Iran’s Revolutionary Guards that you are de facto a proxy and so must sacrifice your own country to their diktats).

It should be obvious to you by the many reports I have posted previously that Israel seeks to occupy Lebanon up to the Litani, but do not want to occupy Beirut and the large urban areas. So the cynical bastards are attempting to bargain Mt. Hermon and maybe give it back if Syria will take care of north Lebanon. Nothing about this is “excellent”. What the fuck is wrong with you, Ifthikar ?
