- “I have just been informed by our great military that last night the Iranians shot down one of our highly sophisticated Apache helicopters while patrolling over the Strait of Hormuz,” Trump wrote Tuesday. “There were two pilots involved, both are safe and uninjured. Nevertheless, the United States must, of necessity, respond to this attack.”
- The U.S. military previously said that a “drone boat” found and rescued the two crew members from the waters of the Strait of Hormuz.
- It was the U.S. military’s first known drone rescue at sea, said Capt. Tim Hawkins, a spokesman for U.S. Central Command. He said the unmanned boat located the two aviators and brought them to shore after they spent about two hours in the water.
- Apache helicopters, which cost around $35 million to $40 million, have been used by the U.S. military to police a blockade of Iranian ports near the strait as part of its large military presence in the region.

Respond? What with? Another Apache sitting duck or Reaper Drone sitting duck???
Quack! Quack! 🤣🤣🤣
Maybe it’s a false flag and the US shot it down? Maybe Israel shot it down to force the US into more attacks on its behalf? Those two countries have sunk to the lowest of the low when their own citizens realize they could have done such a thing.
More bullshit from the Jewnited States.
As I’ve said ad nauseum, only the dangerously stupid or frothing psychos join the Americunt military to do nothing but betray the country and rob, rape, destroy and murder for jewry and Mordor, you know, the satanic shit rags who were actually behind the mass murder of 9/11. That being said, shoot ’em all down, sink ’em, blow their nuts off with shotguns, incinerate ’em, the whole nine yards.
