Not necessarily for the humanity, more for the internet lolz.
Although considering Iraq’s history with their treatment of PoWs, it would probably be in Iran’s best interest to show they aren’t torturing or abusing the pilots in any capacity.

The only confirmed stores I’ve seen of a shoot down today were of an F-15E - Iran tried to pass it off as an F-35, but the control surfaces in the wreckage they published pictures of were very obviously from an F-15. Was there another one?
Just yesterday Piers had on some Mossad agent claiming to be Iranian saying that Iran was conscripting 12 year olds because that was the only defense they had left.
How does that not translate to “our soldiers are gunning down 12-year-olds” even if it was true? Wonder how many magat military families are proud of their kids for that. Fuckin wild
It is very interesting to watch the demise of USA as the dominating global power in real time.
I wonder how this will end for Israel too. With EU and Canada already pulling support for Israel, and USA exhausting their military resources on Iran, how will that influence the position of Israel in the middle east?
Maybe Israel will be dissolved completely, and if they are, it is 100% their own doing.

First confirmed kill for a ground-to-air slingshot. These Stone Age weapons working overtime.

IRGC better find the pilots and give them the chai treatment because there is literally no better form of propaganda lol

Seriously though, this is some big news especially after their earlier hit on an F-35.
What’s the chai treatment? Giving the captured pilot a cup of hot chai and photographing him to show how humane they are?

I think the news the other day was that they scored a hit on the 35, not that they shot it down
Got an article link for that?

If I was in the US military I would be seriously considering whether I wanted to die at the orders of the Fox News Israeli Warcrimes Division.
