To those propagandist out there it is impossible for u.s to cover up anything due to the free press in the United States... I have said this before |

tonididdy:It is not about lives it is about doctrine and psychological warfare. If the pilot was captured it will give Iran bragging right and leverage to negotiate not to talk of the political fallout in the US. The rescue didn't happen in the heart of Iran remember the aircraft was operating in the border region close to Iraq. Iran is a big place almost twice the size of Nigeria of Nigeria and roughly half the size in population so all the pilot need to do is cross the border to friendly border which is not entirely friendly as if the local s that like the US gets him he is also in trouble. The main trouble for the US rescue operation is the locals who wants to collect bounty rather than the main Iranian army. |

CNN, WSJ and others are ever ready to embarrass Trump Administration. I guess if it was a Democrat president, Fox News and others will be on full hating mode Allthelight: |

emmaodet:They have built this myth of invisibility around their military and more especially, around their pilots. So capturing their soldiers easily breaks that myth. It's the same reason they never admit Iran shot down their aircrafts. It's the same thing with Israel and even Ukraine at the beginning of the war. One of the most effective tactics Hezbollah uses to increase Israeli casualties is to ambush an Israeli unit, and then lay another ambush for the Israeli units that attempt to rescue them. They then lay a third ambush for the rescuers that come to rescue the rescuers. |

seunny4lif:It surprises you because you are not following the war with open heart. Did you study the region where the attack happened and how it happened. The aircraft went down around the Iranian border with Iraq so the rescue happened within not forgetting the airman must have try to move away from hostile environment toward friendly side. Secondly Iran is currently not using active radar system that is why the aircrafts don't see the missile coming but the downside is that you can't protect your entire airspace. Protecting the entire airspace is not necessary is Iran large stretch of deserts and mountain. Borders are usually empty so what is the big deal about the rescue and it doesn't even make sense using c-130 for a rescue of one person so now I am thinking about it, I will have to research more the rescue operation. |

tonididdy:Was child's play, you'll be hearing that from the naysayers. He went up a ridge , activated his emergency locator, and started intermittent communication with an encrypted radio. |
| Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by Blakjewelry(m): 7:43am On Apr 05 |
WriterrNg:Something is not right, I have never seen c130 used for rescue operation. Maybe except it was use for one thing and I have seen them use it before and that is air support. They fix something like the Vulcan gatling gun to the c-130 and use it for air support because of it loitering time. It can stay and engage the enemy for extended time not for the rescue operation itself. |

I see the NVBs jubilating over the joke they call a rescue. See how quickly they went from "Iran isn't shooting down US aircraft" to "Iran is shooting down US aircraft but the US can rescue the downed crewmen" 🤡 These ones literally lost so many platforms and mounted casualties in helicopter shootdowns, just because they don't want Iran parading their soldier on tv. Your saving grace is that Iran didn't prepare for this. Shame! |

Pro-Iran gang still dey process shock 😂… dem don try every angle to discredit the American rescue_Pro-Iran analysts be like: ‘yes people were saved but what about the equipment?’ 😭… imagine valuing metal over human life.

update on the rescue first off, as i said yesterday, the colonel in charge of the capture operation should be dishonorably discharged secondly, it is absolutely clear there was no defined protocol for rapid capturing of enemy personnel within iranian territory by the iranian military this is bonkers there must be immediate changes third, there is no clarity on who conducted the capture op it is confirmed that the basij paramilitary was heavily involved and civilians joined in but besides a handful of embedded irgc personnel, there is no word on the artesh this again is bewildering even if the irgc are justified in running the op because they've disproportionately borne the brunt of the war, they needed lots of personnel for the sweep fourth, while the daring rescue op is a positive for the yanks persia did take down or make them lose more manned aircraft from this op than any single operation throughout this war helos, a-10, c-130 lastly, as displeased as i am about the successful rescue i am unperturbed they lost 6 air frames trying to rescue two personnel in the imminent invasion, persia will capture them in their tens to hundreds to thousands depending on the size of the invasion force there'd be no running away or hit and run the one thing persia should watch out for going forward are raids -Lord |

Raynald:you did not comment when the plane was shot down did not comment when they lost a-10 warthog two helos, f-16 did not comment when the lost two more helos and a c-130s now you're commenting because they claim they rescued the pilots with no fatalities story! and the 🤡 is now saying this rescue op proves the probability of success in a ground invasion is over 90% you are so slow 🤣😂😀 how many fpv and shahed drones did iran launch at the pilot and rescuers persia wanted them alive it'll be different in an invasion i hope this rescue emboldens them to invade it will not be an in and out they'll have to stay and their planes and bodies will litter persia just like all their planes during this op -Lord |

amadivv:"Mounted casualties in helicopter shootdowns" are equipment where you come from? |
| Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by LordAdam16: 8:00am On Apr 05 |
amadivv:😂🤣😃 epstein 🤡 say na shock it is disappointing not to capture both pilots but those planes lost are platforms that will not participate in the war permanently and as long as the war continues and hopefully, there is a ground invasion there'll be more opportunities to capture the orcs we waited patiently for 32 days for a crash within persian territory after almost a dozen different crashes outside persian territory we can wait even longer for successful captures -Lord |

⚡"WE GOT HIM! My fellow Americans, over the past several hours, the United States Military pulled off one of the most daring Search and Rescue Operations in U.S. History." President Trump announces an American service member has been rescued from Iran, says the operation was pulled off without any Americans killed or wounded.

Dem dey celebrate Russia equipment losses, e reach their turn dem wan gaslight us to believe say e no matter. Who be mumu? As US don lose more military equipments in 34 days than Russia wey dey fight for 4 years, e good for una eye? Make una better start dey panic because if this war last another 6 months, US go dey beg Ukraine to borrow them equipment. Iran dey burn through US weapons too fast. Not sustainable. |

LordAdam16:The rescue op will embolden Trump to gamble a ground invasion. |

for more color on rescue/capture op while the yanks knew exactly where the pilot was, thanks to his gps beacon the iranians were searching for the pilot so while the iranians had to establish a large semi-circular cordon around the area and then manually comb every square inch while closing in on him the yanks were planning the optimal way to get to the pilot behind enemy lines last night under the cover of darkness, they bombed and fired munitions at a designated stretch of the cordon for a semi-safe flight path to get the rescue team in and out i still think the colonel should be dismissed i know he would have excuses like the availability of a gps scrambler and a plethora of manpads would have made the capture op easier that the region is remote so locating the pilot was several magnitudes harder and there's not a lot of resources to draw from but failure, however understandable, should not be rewarded -Lord |
