US - Iran Conflict 2020

[asianobserve]

Why ballistic missiles and not air strikes. It would have been the cheaper option.

Or they don't trust their airforce to deliver.

Iranian pilots all know how a USAF F-22 inspected one of their G-4s without the poor Iranian pilot knowing it until the F-22 deliberately flew on top of the F-4.... The moment Iranian planes cross the border they're toast.

That's interesting but what kind of weapon was that and there seemed to be no explosion from the incoming missile? Looks like Judas belt for new year fireworks...

That look like a land based CIWS ---- is this video authentic.

U.S. F-22 stealth fighter pilot taunted Iranian F-4 Phantom combat planes over the Persian Gulf

New details about the episode were recently disclosed by Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Welsh who on Sept. 17 not only confirmed that the fighter jets providing HVAAE (High Value Air Asset Escort) were F-22 stealth fighters but also said that:

“He [the Raptor pilot] flew under their aircraft [the F-4s] to check out their weapons load without them knowing that he was there, and then pulled up on their left wing and then called them and said ‘you really ought to go home'”

When it comes to your new found sugar daddy ,sure.

Lo bhailog yha bhi elitist intellectual aa gya ,jo again white daddy k liye kaam karta hai,

Shhhhh don't question them or else intolerance........

I understand you don't like the US but it is not good sport to be personally attacking those who do not share your views. It's not only amateurish but more than me it shows you in a terrible light.

Just discuss on the issues.

Someone here needs to understand, Iran is not Syria or Iraq that you will spank their a** and they will keep on watching. Iran since the seizure of British oil tanker Stena Impero has proved that it don't give a damn to anyone. Now coming to current scenarios, Iran militias bombing US embassy, firing "Ballistic missiles", these are very serious escalation on Iran's part, enough for US to declare a war. No one has the guts to do this. US congress knows how expensive will it be if they go for this war. All the wars US fought since WW2 are not the formal one. If Trump goes for this one, it will be worse than Vietnam even if they have B2, B52, F22 or F35. World will witness the fall of the US supremacy.

Well Look Its Due yo US unethical leanings With religious fundamentalist Regimes
There Diplomacy To have "Yes" Men Regimes And Puppets

The Sole Aim to maintain Hegemony

India & China Both are Ancient Civilizations Which Dominated World For 2000 years In Economics And trade
And We Did Without Subjugation or Plundering of others resources

USA is Just New Player Which Became A Major Player After fall of British empire.And Became Global powerhouse after Fall of USSR in 1991 for 30 yrs

Chinese Risen From there Ashes Once again and Will outpace USA in Economy And Militarily in Next 20 years
India Will Rise In Next half on Century

I Mean Its strange What is US Regime So proud About Dominance of Mere 40-50 years :biggrin2:While We Asians Calmly Maintained for 2 Millenniums Without Detroying World Peace

Okay. How about an utter failure in foreign policy?

Anyway, you backread the posts to get the context of how I said it.

Anyway, back to topic.

So this is the end of the drama? That was rathrr dissppointing. I was expecting more flash and bang from the people closest to Allah....

IRAN SAYS IT HAS CONCLUDED ITS RESPONSE TO U.S. STRIKE, DOES NOT SEEK ESCALATION

After Iran launched a missile attack against air bases in Iraq that housed U.S. and coalition forces, Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammed Javad Zarif tweeted that Iran was finished fighting and was not actively pursuing any kind of escalation to the conflict.

"Iran took & concluded proportionate measures in self-defense under Article 51 of UN Charter targeting base from which cowardly armed attack against our citizens & senior officials were launched," Zarif tweeted. "We do not seek escalation or war, but will defend ourselves against any aggression."

Whatever dude...

Anyway, here are some photos of Iranian missiles used against US and Iraqi military bases in Iraq:

Pieces of missiles are seen at the rural area of Al-Baghdadi town after Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) targeted Ain al-Asad airbase in Iraq, a facility jointly operated by U.S. and Iraqi forces, in Erbil, Iraq on January 08, 2020

Iraqi security forces clear away pieces of shrapnel from the Ain al-Asad airbase after it was struck by ballistic missiles fired by Iran as part of operation 'Martyr Soleimani

Initial reports indicate at least 15 missiles were fired at two American bases in Iraq, though officials said early warning systems sounded alarms at the Ain al-Asad base (pictured) allowing troops to scramble for cover

It would appear that some if not most of the missiles landed on pasture grounds. Good no goats were killed...

You forgot to add Iran informed Iraq of the attack before the launch.

Which system US used to shoot these missiles down?

 

[asianobserve]

Tragically, it appears that the only people the Iranian military killed are civilians and mostly Iranians, and inside Iran!

People stand near the wreckage after a Ukrainian plane carrying 177 passengers crashed near Imam Khomeini airport

Rescue workers in protective suits gather up the bodies of passengers who were killed in the Boeing 737 crash in Iran today

An aerial view of the crash site where rescuers searched the debris this morning with the cause of the crash still unclear

 

[asianobserve]

Which system US used to shoot these missiles down?

It appears the missiles were not shot down. Either these ones in the photos suffered navigational malfunctions or were deliberately aimed at empty grasslands.

 

[asianobserve]

Yes the Iranians did. But they still shot at sacred Iraqi grasslands...

 

[here2where]

As i had previously posted here before today's so-called 'attacks', this is all staged coordinated drama for Iran to walk away with head held high. It looks like all the Iranians managed to do was drop some missiles into fields, kill some inexpensive iraqis and brought down a civilian aircraft while at it.

Instead of all this nonsense, they should have simply done a nuke test. That would have been a stronger and longer lasting response.

And i don't understand the animosity towards asianobserver dude. If he is a non-indian, lets engage in mature debates and read out facts, instead of childish name-calling and meaningless threats.

 

[ezsasa]

If the attacker is giving advance warning to the target, it doesn’t look like intent was to cause damage. Isn’t it?
