How fuckìng dare they, amirite? Bombing those poor souls without a warning and even killing them... They are savages!
Unlike us, who bomb a school and kill some brown kids who were clearly doing terrorist thingies and were a threat because reasons. That was absolutely justified and normal... right?
The warning sirens were expected from the base not to the base. Jfc.
That's so sad... as I said, in the school they bombed, there weren't any sirens.
Oh dear, did you hear that Gaza? 6!
So iran strikes active targets in a warzone during a war and the super duper advanced US forces managed to bomb two schools in the first salvo. Brilliant. Who are the bad guys again?
6 US soldiers killed by a draft dodger trying to get us to stop talking about his friendship with Epstein.
Meanwhile how many Iranian civilians are dead? This should be in every headline discussing dead US war criminals
I don't think it's the friendship he wants people to stop talking about though, i suspect it's all the children he raped.
I wonder if this will inspire American soldiers to stop following illegal orders. ?
Probably not
womp womp
No warning, no siren
Why is this part of the title? It reads to me as making the attack seem more spooky and scary, but is there any other reason I'm missing?
It's a failure of US logistics/preparation. A more competent industrial military would have brought air defense. Starship Troopers was a documentary.
The US doesn't leave personel exposed without anti air. Most bases have Patriot, THAAD and or CIWIS, at the very least an air raid alarm and bunkers.
Cry me a red white and blue river.
"If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood
Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs,
Obscene as cancer,
Bitter as the cud
Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues,–
My friend, you would not tell with such high zest
To children ardent for some desperate glory,
The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est
Pro patria mori."
These “soldiers” deserve to die for the ~~country~~ capitalists they chose to “protect”
Suckers and losers for sure.
Nice.
No warning, no siren
And at the same time morons have spend the last few years of war in Ukraine to hallucinate about the new transparent battle field that makes so many systems obsolete...
And this exact type of trust me bro idiot is in charge of the US military now.
Good, may they continue to fail upward until the AmeriKKKan Empire collapses
Wait are Israel and the US sending warnings and sirens ahead of their bombs?
Or is this CNN writer just discovering what bombings at wartime look like.
Bombable locations often have air raid sirens to alert personnel to seek shelter.
A "tactical operation center that was fortified" ought to have such a thing, whereas a "makeshift operations center at a civilian port in Kuwait" is much less likely to.
The lack of warning speaks to the lies and poor planning of hegseth and other regime goons.
How dare anybody oppose our war crimes!
Word on the street is American should be suffering. Regardless of the Iran war.
