HacheNoire:My friend US is NOT Iran where govt can suppress news. Their reporters are all over everything and they are NOT pro US govt, and NO ONE censures what they publish! The video posted above says this is an accident that can also happen durring peace time. Happened in FRIENDLY airspace. Not due to any fire, friendly or not. You can be sure US media reporters will dig up everything AND publish it - especially if it embarrasses their govt!  5 Likes

Here is a refined and rephrased version of your text, structured to enhance its impact and clarity: "It is imperative that the U.S. maintains its narrative denying that these aircraft were struck by Iranian missiles. With this being the fourth military aircraft officially acknowledged as downed by the U.S. military, it's clear that Iran is systematically eroding the myth of American military invincibility. Consider the reality: a nation that has endured severe sanctions for 47 years is now posing significant challenges to the world's most formidable military. Iran has effectively asserted its authority by barring both U.S. military and civilian vessels from transiting the Strait of Hormuz, destroyed the US 5th fleet naval base in Bahrain, and struck every single US military base in the Middle East and also destroyed several early warning radar systems which cost billions of dollars. Furthermore, we must acknowledge that Iran is effectively engaging, on its own, the two most powerful military forces in the world. 1 Like

Bbb007:It was shot down. It then crashed and collided with another refueller which they quickly scrambled to Occupied Palestine for emergency landing as Iraq is now too hot for them. That is two refuellers out of operation at once; one permanently and the other may take weeks or months to fix. Two aircraft involved in the crash are US KC-135 Stratotanker refuelling aircraft. US has about 5 in total in the Middle East; one destroyed completely, another in bad shape and update on the remaining are classified. The US refuelling aircraft always accompany the jets sent to bomb Iran so they can refuel the bomber jets because the distance is much from Occupied Palestine to Iran. Refuelling is required for the jets. Even though Iraq has closed its airspace, the US has no regard for Iraq and fly over Iraq airspace. That was where the Iranians ambushed them. All the 6-man crew are presumably dead. 2 Likes

Soldiers dying from illnesses. Aircraft carrier burning for no apparent reason. Aircraft carrier sinking in sewage. Planes crashing without being shot down. Either America is lying, or these unnatural and extraordinary events happening to the American military are acts of divine intervention. 1 Like |
