Botragelad:Tell me who spin more lies than America and zionist terrorist? Even Americans don't believe their government lies anymore, majority of Americans don't support this war hence why they protested few weeks back. |

Botragelad:All talks and nonsense. Iran captured US soldiers years ago, what did your darling US do? |

Botragelad:Took the whole risk for one personel, they are inside Iran and it would be shameful if IRGC shouldn't capture them |

“U.S. rescues missing crew member in Iran after fighter jet shot down “WE GOT HIM!” President Donald Trump posted Sunday just after midnight, announcing the safe return of the missing airman and those who risked their lives to save him. U.S. forces have rescued the missing crew member of a fighter jet that was shot down over Iran, and all personnel involved in the rescue have returned safely, President Donald Trump announced early Sunday, bringing to a close the most perilous moment yet for troops in the war. “WE GOT HIM!” the president said in a post on Truth Social just after midnight, describing the operation as one of the most “daring” search-and-rescue operations in U.S. history. The airman, a weapons system officer of the two-seater fighter aircraft, was in enemy territory for about two days in unforgiving terrain as Iranian forces and militiamen drew nearer. The airman was injured, Trump said, but is expected to recover. The intense search-and-rescue operation launched Friday after the Air Force F-15E jet crashed and both crew members ejected. The pilot was quickly found and recovered alive, triggering an extensive mission to locate the weapons officer that involved dozens of aircraft, Trump said, along with Special Operations troops and other personnel trained to operate in dangerous environments to rescue fellow service members. The operation was high risk, with U.S. C-130s and rescue helicopters flying low and slow over Iran’s mountainous terrain to locate the missing airman. As the search was ongoing, Iranian television broadcast a statement offering a reward for the recovery of the downed crew members. Another broadcast called on residents to “target” any Americans they found. IRIB, the state broadcaster, said on social media that “many people” had gone to the crash site and that the Iranian military had “called on the people NOT TO LET anyone mistreat the pilot.” Around the same time that the fighter jet was shot down on Friday, an A-10 Thunderbolt II attack plane was struck by incoming fire from Iran. Before ejecting, the pilot was able to get the aircraft to Kuwaiti airspace and was also rescued Friday.

In addition, two of the rescue helicopters that had been searching for the missing F-15 crew member took ground fire by Iran during the operation. Some of the service members on board were injured, but all returned safely to base, U.S. officials earlier told The Washington Post. They spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media. The incident marked the first known instance of an American crewed aircraft being brought down inside hostile territory since the U.S.-Israeli war in Iran began five weeks ago. Combat search-and-rescue operations are some of the riskiest missions carried out by the U.S. military. Aircrews and recovery personnel are on constant standby for such operations, which involve rushing into rapidly evolving and chaotic environments.

Both Iran and the US shared the honour. US got their airman. Iran destroyed 2 black hawk helicopters and two C 130 transport planes |

Jo franchasng:In fact,I read the full details about the search it was really audacious.This is what differeciates men from boys and superpower from minion power.The airman hid himself in the crevice of the mountain until the rescue team came for him.24- hour watch was kept on him from Pentagon office after being tracked until he was finally rescued. |

For just one Air Force Officer,see risks!! Now is how a country should show love,care and reward for those on line of duty for the nation. But somewhere in an African country,a certain Brigadier General Uba was seen in a video captured by some riffraff Islamic terrorists begging for rescue but nobody cares about undertaking this kind risk American undertake for their own officers to rescue Uba. |

Botragelad:Remember they also came to Nigeria to rescue the US citizen abducted by boko haram in the northern Nigeria and neutralised all the terrorists ? I respect the US defence. |

Originalsly:The reward put out was before US rescued him yesterday. News of the reward have been out some days back. But US were the first to get to him. So they can now shove their reward down their incompetent ahss You no dey follow the news? |
| Re: Second US Crew Member From Downed Jet Recovered by arantess: 12:15pm On Apr 05 |

wildkat:For that, you will have to show small sign of cleverness and good reasoning |
| Re: Second US Crew Member From Downed Jet Recovered by LeeSmart: 12:46pm On Apr 05 |
Originalsly:If Al jazeera that is sympathetic to the Iranian regime will make a post telling you that the both airmen have been rescued why should you that knows nothing be saying other wise? Even the governor of the certain southwestern province in which the incident happened acknowledged that the US actually came in and rescued their personnel leaving wide trail of destruction (even fars news confirmed it). I don't know why you guys will be using religion to be sentimental about this. |
| Re: Second US Crew Member From Downed Jet Recovered by LeeSmart: 12:49pm On Apr 05 |
ReturnMan:What is this one saying? This incident we are talking about happened just barely two days ago. It's seems most of you guys have no access to the Internet or cable network or maybe you're only arguing from the point of religion. |

Iran were anxiously looking for a human trophy 😂 |
| Re: Second US Crew Member From Downed Jet Recovered by Montana23: 1:21pm On Apr 05 |
I know it really hurt, it can't be quick decisive like your father Trump have claimed..Iran is no regular, so tiye e...Allahu akbar Gerhards: |
| Re: Second US Crew Member From Downed Jet Recovered by Originalsly: 1:42pm On Apr 05 |
LeeSmart:Wasn't updated at the time of posting....early a.m. indeed rescued. Don't follow Al Jazeera ... and don't have religious or other sentiments ... just be objective. On the rescue effort US lost two helicopters and either one or two planes. No word on the fate of those who were on board.. Thanks for the response....keeps things current and in perspective.

| Re: Second US Crew Member From Downed Jet Recovered by LeeSmart: 1:59pm On Apr 05 |
Originalsly:Owkay good then👍, i thought you're one of those boys who would just come on here and start posting false narrative for the wider public thinking we ain't informed over here. They would do it with a heavy touch of religion to it, reasons why we the defenders of our faith (Christianity) counter them aggressively. No vex if i been respond to you aggressively sir🙏. Hope we're good? |
| Re: Second US Crew Member From Downed Jet Recovered by Originalsly: 2:08pm On Apr 05 |
LeeSmart:Hmmm ....responded aggressively?!...not at all! ,... I do welcome constructive criticisms. If you said nothing ... many would leave thinking my comment was the present position on ground. Views need to be challenged respectfully...after all ....this is a discussion forum. |

America will never leave non of their own behind, facts, . It's only America that will do so, no country on earth, maybe Israel |
| Re: Second US Crew Member From Downed Jet Recovered by Emaprince: 2:52pm On Apr 05 |
Originalsly:Be like you rented your senses out true true. The picture you posted...is it the missing pilot or what has it to do with Iranian war?

| Re: Second US Crew Member From Downed Jet Recovered by udemzyudex(m): 2:52pm On Apr 05 |
US should allow Israel handle the air, Israel have been fighting for years have mastered the act. |

madridguy:Let start from the two headline of the news.. . US said they have rescue the🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Is somerhing not fishing there Check the telegraph.uk own to.. No direct assurance but presume |
| Re: Second US Crew Member From Downed Jet Recovered by salem1996: 3:01pm On Apr 05 |
Botragelad:Remind that guy arguing with you that the main goal was never regime change, it was about nuclear weapons to not be developed. If it were regime change, same way this airman was rescued, it won't take long for US to literly enter Iran and handpicked whoever they want to and leave. |

, now, connect it with what I said earlier " The Iranian government said they won't say anything about the second pilot since the US government are not telling the truth about the first pilot".
