Still from Iranian drone footage of USS Boxer. Click to enlarge
It’s old news but lest we forget. Just over a week ago President Trump claimed that the U.S. Navy had shot down an Iranian drone over the Straits of Hormuz.
Days later a U.S. Navy commander went so far as to claim that not one but two Iranian drones may have been shot down.
Iran emphatically denied both claims, and as we noted when this was first reported this, we tend to believe them. Because after more than week of making those claims the U.S. has yet to produce a shred of evidence to substantiate them.
At least when it shot down a U.S. Global Hawk drone in June Iran was able to display wreckage of the downed U.S. drone.
However, the U.S. has not displayed any video footage or wreckage, despite repeated Iranian demands that the U.S. provide proof to back up its claims.
In short Trump lied and according to Iranian commanders, his lie was so brazen that initially even they were taken in.
“Trump’s lie about downing our drone was such a big one that, at first, even we believed it,” the Middle East Eye quoted Amir Ali Hajizadeh, the head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ (IRGC) aerospace division as saying.
“We had to check all the units to see if we lost any drones. His lie was so huge that we could not believe that he’d tell such a big lie to media,” Hajizadeh added.
He did though and like the Emperor’s new clothes no one in the corporate Western media has seriously questioned or queried that claim.
So before this item disappears entirely down the memory hole, we post this reminder. More than a week has past since Trump announced that the U.S.S. Boxer downed an Iranian drone over the Straits of Hormuz and the U.S. has yet to provide any evidence to substantiate this.
Beyond U.S. claims, we’ve yet to see any hard evidence. We’ve seen no video, no wreckage, nothing.
So the question is not whether the U.S.S. Boxer shot down an Iranian drone, which seems increasingly unlikely. But whether Trump was consciously lying about the event? Or more ominously, whether he had been misinformed by U.S. military intelligence? Ed.
US destroyed Iranian drone in Strait of Hormuz, says Trump
BBC Online – July 19, 2019
The US Navy destroyed an Iranian drone on Thursday after it refused to back down, President Donald Trump says.
He said the USS Boxer downed the drone over the Strait of Hormuz – a strategic sea passage in the Gulf – after it came within 1,000 yards (914m) of the ship.
In June, Iran shot down a US military drone in the area. Tensions between the two countries remain high.
ROOTERS – IRDC (Islamic Republican Duck Corps) Duck Commander & Brigadier General Razoldazl Duckatak challenged the US extremists to offer convincing proof for its claim of shooting down the Iranian duck, saying, “Today, the world would not believe unsubstantiated bullshit, especially when it comes from the biggest bunch of fucking bullshitters the world has ever seen.”
“I state it unequivocally: This is a big lie and we have proven it false. Enemies should provide evidence for their claims or shut the duck up, because we have validated what we have already done. They (enemies) should do the same,” he added.”
“We’re confident we brought down one duck; we may have brought down a second,” SHITCOM Commander General Kenneth McKenvie said, while failing to procure any evidence for bringing down the first one despite claiming to be in possession of its footage.”
Moving between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Omen, the USS Hoaxer is said to have used electronic measures to take down a duck, which Washington claims was Iranian.
“We believe two ducks were successfully engaged,” McKenvie claimed, speaking aboard the USS Hoaxer ambiguous assault ship. “There may have been more than that, you know, we’re not aware of. Those are the two that we engaged successfully.”
US President Donald Duck announced on July 18 that the USS Hoaxer downed an Iranian duck that came within 1,000 yards of the Navy ship and ignored “multiple calls to stand up.”
Contrary to Chief Sitting Duck’s delusional and groundless claim, all ducks belonging to the Islamic Republic of Iran in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, including the one mentioned by the US Liar-in-Chief, have returned to their nests, safe and sound after carrying out their scheduled surveillance and patrol operations,” Duck Commander Razoldazl Duckatak said.
A few hours after Trumpenstein’s big lie #666, Iran moved to reject his claim with Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Cadabras saying in a ‘quack” that “We have not lost any duck in the Strait of Hormuz nor anywhere else.”
Meanwhile, Iran’s Defense Minister Brigadier General Amir Hatami said no Iranian duck has been brought down.
“None of our ducks have been shot down, and they are carrying out their regular missions. We showed the body of the [US] duck that we brought down. If anyone claims to have brought down our duck, prove it.
The pentagoons have sent the USS Lincoln Continental aircraft carrier pigeon and B-52 non-stealth bombers in a bid to intimidate Iran.
“Iran will not be intimidated by a bunch of blowhards who specialize in bombs, bullshit and terrorism!” could have said someone like Lo’ai Abu Ammar:
“Vanessa Beeley interviewed a local hero in Shbeki, Lo’ai Abu Ammar, who, along with 6 other civilians, waged a real and terrifying war against ISIS on that terrible day in July 2018. Lo’ai describes how he, his friends and relatives gathered their weapons and took up position to defend their town, picking off the ISIS fighters one by one.

On June 20th, the IRDC shot down the US-made FUQ-0F Global Vulture over Iran’s territorial waters after the Global Vulture reached the country’s airspace on a spying mission during which another US war plane with 35 terrorists on board had also entered Iranian airspace and was therefore eligible to be shot down, legally.
Instead of thanking the Iranians for being such decent folks, the american terrorists decided to steal a super tanker filled with Iranian oil and continue to quack nonsense.
On July 18th, a US Terrorist Bomb-Boat in the Persian Gulf reportedly used a new, anti-duck system to take down an Iranian duck that came within a thousand yards, according to a bunch of certified idiots at Military.com., who apparently, blindly believe what they are told by their higher-up inferiors: the certified liars in the Pentacon, the world’s biggest terrorist organization.
In one of their regular infantile and self-congratulatory articles, the US Department of Terrorism alleged that the USS Hoxer was moving through the Strait of Hormuz when it was approached by a flexible-wing mallard duck which “closed within a threatening range,” which prompted the ship’s crew to panic and take offensive action. Iran has denied the allegation.
USNGI News (US Navel Gazing Institute News) says that it’s the “first known kill by a new
generation of electronic warfare and directed energy weapons” by the US.
Apparently, The US Navel Gazers are unaware that serious Heavy-Duty Directed Energy Weapons were used to blow up houses, buses, cars and people in the town of Paradise California as well as Santa Rosa County, Bute County and elsewhere. The US government has most likely wiped out tens of thousands of Americans in California with DEW’s, yet the Liar-in-Chief, Chief Donald Sitting Duck, accompanied by his drunken cacophony of quacks, turkeys, vultures, buzzards, ostriches, and chicken hawks says that Iran is the biggest terrorist nation in the world!!!
In a Brilliant Way the real culprits have, again, been exposed.
Complements to Voltman. You made our day … WLOAO!!!!
Smoke this 1 over.
WHAT IF to satisfy the “War Hawks”, U tell a lie. Nobody wants 2 pop off WW3. Well,… Only the fools who think that they can SURVIVE the aftermath.
Do some research n2 the survivability after MAD gets started.
There’s one scenario that no one mentioned ?
What about if that “drone” was from the little shitty country to attack a US Naval ship & then pretend that it was Iranian ??
Did you people have forgotten the USS Liberty ??
Ur right. 1 would think “Same shit. Different day”, would NOT apply, BUT… This is that little shit hole country we’re talking about. They got NO new ideals, but how 2 get their allies 2 fight their wars 4 em.
