What we heard about a major American ground invasion of Iran turned out to be false. It was actually a desperate two-day operation to rescue a downed pilot, one that cost the US five warplanes and two helicopters.
Despite being called the world’s most advanced army, American forces relied heavily on specialized HOOK3 and CSEL radios to survive in Iran’s remote mountainous terrain. Iran’s special commandos, supported by air force, army, and police units, put up fierce resistance. The intense battle continued until 3:30 a.m., during which Iranian forces shot down the aircraft one after another.
The heavy losses reportedly triggered mass resignations at the Pentagon, with around a hundred personnel reportedly walking away.
Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi delivered a sharp rebuke: “Where are your ground troops? Are you too afraid to come? Or can’t you return after losing your planes? Should we send one to pick you up?”
This humiliating defeat has clearly shattered American confidence. Fear has now entered their soldiers’ hearts — and once fear takes hold on the battlefield, defeat becomes inevitable.
Iran’s missile strikes continue unabated. Meanwhile, Israel has launched attacks on targets in Kuwait and Bahrain, hitting military and oil facilities.
No matter what Trump tries, it won’t change the reality on the ground. The myth of American military supremacy has been broken.
Our heartfelt prayers and support remain with Iran.
