Two U.S. Service Members Killed In Jordan And Another Is Missing, CENTOM Says by Kuginzi(op): 6:43pm On Jul 18

Two U.S. service were killed Friday while defending against an Iranian ballistic missile and drone attack in Jordan, and another service member is missing, U.S. Central Command said Saturday.

CENTOM said the troops were killed in action on July 17 as U.S. and partner forces responded to the attack. It did not specify where in Jordan the attack occurred or provide additional details about the circumstances.

Four other American service members were medically evacuated to hospitals in Jordan but have since been discharged, CENTCOM said. Other personnel who were evaluated for minor injuries have returned to duty.

CENTCOM said it was withholding the identities of the two service members killed until 24 hours after their families have been notified.

Meanwhile Israeli soldiers are enjoying their life in Israel while America continue to bleed for Israel. To the last American soldier.

Iran has put two in a box ⚰️⚰️

But nothing is new! Americans have been dying for Israel since the US was created in stolen lands and territories through war and genocides.

You must be comedian. Cos this your comment can only pass as premium comedy.

If Iran knew israel was a baby being fed by US. They should started shooting at them na.

Iran knows it'd start loosing generals the moment it draws Israel in.

Nigeria that does not even have a 3rd generation aircraft jet. I wish you Goodluck facing Israel.

Biodun556:

What a logic. Is US attacking from Jordan, Kuwait, or Bahrain huh

I even doubt they are attacking from Qatar.

Yet most of US refuelling is coming from Israel which means Isreal is more a legitimate target than Jordan or the Arab countries.

The US attacks are almost entirely coming from naval asset off the Omani coast.

What is going on here is that Iran understands the US is unwilling to wage this war and lose soldiers as it can't explain american losses to its people. But they know Israelis don't have that problem. 90% of Israeli society is willing to go to war with Iran. Therefore Israel can tolerate even upwards of 1000 casualty. In its six day war with Egypt, Syria, Iraq and Jordan Israel lost 1000 people though it took close to 20,000 casualties from its enemies and yet won the war.

When the US and Israel joined to attack Iran, it was the US calming Israel. The Israelis did more damage and assassinated a lot of key people in Iran. And guess what, the new Iranian leaders don't want to die either. They've learnt it as far back as Farackhideh that when Israel wants to kill someone in Iran it's a matter of time.

I was thinking whether they'd be foolish enough to shoot at Israel. But obviously they are not yet foolish enough.

OH THEY HAVE FINALLY ADMITTED IT, AND THEY HAVE REDUCED THE NUMBER FROM 20 TO 2, AT THE END TRUTH WILL COME OUT

AMERICA NEVER SEE ANYTHING YET. THEIR SHAKARA DON PUSH THEM TO ENTER IRAN ONE CHANCE.

IF AND WHEN THIS WAR ENDS, AMERICA WILL BE INCAPACITATED AND AFRAID TO FIGHT AGAIN 😅🤣. THEY JUST PICK FIGHT WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE EAGER TO GO TO HEAVEN AND ARE DETERMINE TO TAKE THEIR REVENGE.
STRAITS OF HORMUZ HAS ALWAYS AND WILL ALWAYS BELONG TO IRAN AND THERE IS NOTHING AMERICA CAN DO ABOUT IT.
THE MAIN PROBLEM AMERICA IS HAVING IN IRAN IS THAT UNLIKE VENEZUELA, IRANIAN POLITICIANS/MILITARY ARE NOT MOTIVATED BY MONEY OR WEALTH AND CAN'T BE BRIBED BY MATERIAL THINGS TO TOPPLED THEIR GOVERNMENT,THAT IS THEY ARE RELIGIOUS IDEOLOGUES AND THEY HAVE MEANS (DRONE AND MISSILES) OF HITTING BACK AT AMERICANS.
IRAN WILL SURELY GET NUKES TO PRESERVED THEIR STATEHOOD, IT IS A MUST AND IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME. IF AMERICA/ISREAL THINKS THAT IRAN IS AFRAID OF THEIR NUCLEAR BLACKMAIL THEN THEY ARE MISTAKEN. AMERICA SHOULD NOT BE BOTHERED ABOUT CHINA/RUSSIA SUPPORT FOR IRAN IN EVENT OF THEIR NUKES STRIKE ON IRAN (PUTIN & XI ARE TOO AFRAID TO ENGAGED AND THEY HAVE SO MUCH TO LOSE), INSTEAD THEY SHOULD BE WORRIED ABOUT NORTH KOREA GIVING HALVE OF THEIR NUKES TO IRAN AND BELIEVE ME, IRAN WILL NOT EVEN HESITATE FOR A SECOND BEFORE USING IT ON ISREAL AND "IF THEY CAN" ON AMERICA.

THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS WAR THAT HAS ONLY ONE OUTCOME AND THAT IS "AMERICAN DEFEAT IN MIDDLE EAST AND THE END OF THEIR GLOBAL EMPIRE/PETROL DOLLAR SYSTEM" FURTHER ESCALATION WILL LEAD TO A MORE GRAVED CONSEQUENCES FOR EVERYONE IN THE MIDDLE EAST.

FOR ALL THE MILITARY ANALYSIS I HAVE SEEN, NO ONE HAS BE ABLE TO CONVINCINGLY EXPLAINED HOW AMERICA CAN INVADE IRAN AND DESTROYED THEIR GOVERNMENT WITHOUT GETTING DECIMATED/DESTROYED BY IRANIAN MILITARY. INSTEAD, THEY ARE ALL SAYING THAT AMERICA SHOULD CARPET BOMB POWER PLANTS, REFINERIES, BUILDINGS AND ANYTHING THEY SEE MOVING AS IF AIR POWER HAS EVER WON A WAR.
THIS WAR WAS DOOMED TO FAILED FROM THE GET GO.

You see this war, na America waka alone enter, but at the end, na United Nations go beg Iran make them leave America alone.

Never start what you can't finish.

As for the death of the former supreme leader, Iranians will surely avenged it, either now or in 10years time and it wouldn't be the government of Iran that does it but instead it will be a religious fanatic lone-wolf who will take it upon himself as religious duty to avenged for his religious leader

Iran has the right to defend itself

Counting the scoreline

USA still leading

O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there;
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

Isreal and America underestimated irans ballistic capabilities and they are paying dearly for it. They are just waiting for the Arab world to join the fight so they can withdraw. But Iran is not the last of their kind.

Iran is very afraid of Israel because Israel has a PhD in elimination of leaders. Iran doesn't want to go near them. They haven't yet recovered from the attack they encounter with Israel. Iran prefer dealing with the US than Israel. Imagine that Israel is closer to them than all the countries they are attaching recently, but they can't throw even a knockout to her.
