All empires die due to arrogance, here you have it
It is weird to hear a guest outside of Iran being asked how the people in Iran feel when there are numerous live stream videos of thousands of Iranians on the streets waving their flags and photos of leaders who were killed.
The Obliterated Obliterating the Obliterator
We need adults back in the room with Trump and his cabinet. Clearly
Most likely one of the pilots is shielded by the Iranian opposition and figuring out a way to get them across the border. He must be 100s of miles away from the search zone so that the IRGC doesn't capture him. There is no other explanation why he can't be found either by IRGC or by the Americans
Why is Germany still helping this war with its bases?
where is the remainder of the wreckage? missing pilot would maybe be near?
From an Iranian viewpoint, and legally speaking, Iran is fighting against a far stronger agressor who illegally attacked them – if they survive would be an amazing achievement. The US publicly threaten with war crimes, such as bombing water supplies. So many factors, including earlier actions by the regime in Iran, makes jt very unlikely that they'll adhere to the rules of war – so for the sake of the pilot, hopefully the rescue team finds him before the Iranians.
That pilot would wish he die instead… its gonna end reaĺly horribly for him if he was found by iran
The Amercians are doing so much winning they, they had to give Iran a point… Golden Nuggets response
So Iran still has the nuclear material and can still build the bomb, now has no sanctions and can impose taxes over other countries oil transport… this is how I call success, go go trumpet
US criminal pilot soon is getting captured ( serial killers)
The host of the live stream misspoke at 26:50 and meant to say "the Strait of Hormuz is still closed to most ships." Apologies!
stupendous
Trump:
1st week, we are winning
2nd week, we have won
3rd week, we need help in Hormuz
Now, where is the missing pilot?
QUOTABLE QUOTES:
"If you can't win an impossible war then just say 'I have won' and post it on social media" – DON TZU (The art of winning easily) 😂
You forgot that an A10 was also shot down.
Why are you guys so pro-Iranian?
Remember what the US did after they sank an Iranian ship?
My question is "When will the European leadership stop blaming the victim, Iran, for this war and start blaming and demanding change from the aggressors, the US and Israel?" The threat of a European boycott on all US and Israeli products would go a long way in ending this war and the continual Israeli directed economic aggression against Iran.
DJT doesn't understand that every time he says he wants to make a deal with Iran he's showing weakness. Business deals are different matter but You westerners need to understand that here in The East, especially when you are at war with someone, only the loosing party seeks or wishes for a deal. So Iranians and others are laughing at DJT. I believe the US can smash Iranians to pieces but their prestige is being smashed into pieces by the Iranians right now.
israel would put the hanibal directive
US have come to understand that, war is not fought in books or at the military parade but on the battle field. Regardless of how advanced your technology is, anything can happen.
israel wasn`t mentioned a single time in this report lmao
Long live Iran!
Your station has never been that concerned and sad about killing of Iranian schoolgirls by american carpet bombers. DW, you're so biased, or is it cowardness?
Trump won every moment, a drunk king!
DW hopes the pilot is captured by Iran.
just keep the strait closed, period.
8:33 It was a Iranian villager with a Persian Mauser. There's also footage of Iranian police trying to engage, but I've not seen any military servicemen attempting to engage with small arms. A Blackhawk did suffer damage and an A-10 was downed over the Persian Gulf, per NYT.
Love you to the moon with no way back. Trump has a sewer problem.
Why does everyone keep calling the pilot as a potential hostage when he would be a POW?
Trump's hate brings us together. Stop fighting.
