Iran war: Iran claims downing of 2 US planes; Hormuz ‘deadline’ looms
- Iran claims the downing of two C-130 planes and two Black Hawk helicopters belonging to the US. State television broadcast footage of wreckage, saying it belonged to one of the planes.
- This claim comes hours after US President Donald Trump says the American officer who went missing in Iran after the downing of his F-15E fighter jet has been rescued and is “now safe and sound”.
- Trump also warns that “all hell” will rain down on Iran if it does not reach a peace deal and reopen the Strait of Hormuz by Monday. Tehran rejects what it calls a “helpless and nervous” ultimatum.
- An Iranian drone attack has hit a storage tank at Bahrain’s main fuel facility, causing a fire, while UAE authorities say Iranian attacks caused multiple fires at a petrochemicals plant.
- Iran says US-Israeli attacks have killed five people and wounded 170 at the Mahshahr Petrochemical Zone and more than 30 universities have been targeted since the beginning of the war.

DeleteIran is too modest.
ReplyDeleteThey have been rumoured to have downed at least 60 US planes by now..
Good thing Hilary didn’t become President. She would have attacked Iran. Strange that she is now crickets, no word of sapot for 47.
ReplyDeleteInteresting how selective the outrage can be.
In 2008, Hillary Clinton said, "I want the Iranians to know that if I am president, we will attack Iran."
Strong words. Very strong words.
But I don't remember people screaming ‘dictatorship" back then. I don't remember nonstop panic posts or calls for impeachment over a statement like this.
We can disagree on policies. We can debate foreign policy all day long. But let's at least be consistent.
If it was acceptable rhetoric then, why is it suddenly the end of democracy now? Consistency matters.

The "downed pilot" was a fake cover story for a failed US military operation to capture Iran’s primary stockpile of highly enriched 60% uranium, roughly 440–970 pounds.
The primary stockpile is located at Isfahan, exactly where the pilot was "lost."
This explains why the US heavily bombed the area while "searching" and why the C-130s were destroyed without loss of life.
The C-130s were hit on the ground while the special forces attempted to secure the material. The entire operation became a massive rescue operation to extract the soldiers.

Evidence for the "Uranium Cover Story"
Location: The rescue took place in the Isfahan region, which is home to one of Iran’s most critical nuclear facilities.
Scale of Force: The sheer volume of aircraft & helicopters lost including heavy lift assets like the C-130J Commando units for a "snatch-and-grab" of enriched uranium stockpiles
The 160th SOAR's helicopters MH-47 Chinook and MH-6 Little Birds that were on site would have extracted the pilot. It makes zero sense to land two C-130J for a pilot extraction.
Instead, they would transport specialized ground units like Delta Force or Navy SEALs (DEVGRU), who are specifically trained for "Pathway Defeat" and the handling of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD).
