Declassified footage shows US boots on the ground in Iran

 

New details reveal the scale and material cost of an operation to recover two American airmen shot down near Isfahan

 

More than 90 US service members ultimately deployed on the ground, while several hundred personnel were in the air and several thousand supported the operation, CENTCOM commander Adm. Brad Cooper told CBS’ 60 Minutes. He described them as the first acknowledged US “boots on the ground” in Iran in 46 years.

 

The two-seat F-15E, valued by CBS at about $30 million, was brought down on April 3 by an Iranian shoulder-fired missile costing roughly $100,000 while carrying out a strike on facilities linked to Tehran’s missile and drone programs south of Isfahan. Its crew, identified only by their mission call signs “Alpha” and “Bravo,” ejected and landed about five miles apart.

 

Alpha, the pilot, was recovered several hours later after the US sent 21 aircraft into Iran. American helicopters came under fire during the extraction, and one was hit by small-arms fire, wounding crew members. An A-10 involved in the search was also hit, forcing its pilot to eject after leaving Iranian airspace.

Anon's were right straight away…..as always - Netanyahu to be he scapegoat to protect the elite

 

Netanyahu ‘concealed’ warnings of Oct. 7 Hamas attack – former IDF chief

 

Dan Halutz has laid ultimate responsibility for the deadly security failure on the Israeli prime minister

 

Former Israel Defense Forces (IDF) chief of staff Dan Halutz has accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of concealing warnings ahead of the October 7 attack and laid ultimate responsibility for the deadly security failure on him.

 

Halutz was responding to a Haaretz report alleging that UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed warned Netanyahu about a major operation being planned by Hamas ten days before the incursion. Netanyahu reportedly downplayed the threat and did not alert Israel’s security chiefs.

 

Netanyahu’s office called the report an “absolute lie,” while the UAE neither confirmed nor denied the allegation.

 

In an interview aired by Israeli radio station 103FM on Sunday, Halutz said he believed the reported conversation had indeed occurred and claimed there were multiple indications that Netanyahu knew more than he disclosed.

 

What could be simpler for the Emirati prince than to say there was no conversation if there was no conversation?… There are so many supporting reasons to understand that the man knew far more than he told those responsible for solving the problems afterward. Because he was incapable of solving the problems. He knew and concealed it,” Halutz said.

 

“I don’t know how to get inside the mind of this psychopath. What goes through his head? Only he knows,” he added when asked why Netanyahu had allegedly failed to act.

 

According to Haaretz, Israel’s internal security agency Shin Bet received a separate warning that then-Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar was preparing an “earthquake” and a “terrifying operation,” and Netanyahu was briefed on it. During a subsequent security assessment, the agency warned that Israel was “on a collision course” and recommended either significant offensive action or stronger defenses around Gaza and the West Bank, but no decision was made.
