Trump is losing it and unleashed curse-filled social media rant at Iran after U.S. rescues colonel.

The desperate rescue came at a high price to save face. Dozens of aircraft were lost: two transport planes (MC-130J Commando II) and four helicopters (MH-6 Little Birds) were intentionally destroyed to prevent seizure by Iran, one Warthog (attack aircraft) providing covering fire crashed, and two MQ-9 Reaper drones were shot down during the operation. A heavy price to pay for maintaining the appearance of US air superiority.

Yup. They were messing around and lost a bunch of aircraft. God knows what the casualties were.

@sree251 they used "rescue" as a human shield for a raid - it failed.

Trump is desperate to score a win in a losing war.

@sree251 it's hard to see anything like a strategy, there. Why make an issue of US hegemony by proving it's gone?
