Photos released to the public on September 15th revealed widespread damage at US positions caused by Iranian missile, drone attacks; completely at odds with the Pentagon's claims.
Retired four-star General Barry McCaffrey said last month that the U.S. military has "probably permanently lost access to 15 Persian Gulf bases," due to Trump's war on Iran. The Pentagon Inspector General, in a report released February 15, said that hundreds of buildings on American bases across the Middle East were destroyed by Iranian attacks that also caused $184 million in damages to diplomatic facilities in the region. All that damage was caused by thousands of missiles and drones fired by Iran. The New York Times identified 17 American bases, air-defense installations, and diplomatic facilities that had been hit. Among them were some of the US military's important staging points: the Fifth Fleet's headquarters in Bahrain as well as the Ali Al Salem Air Base, Camp Arifjan, and Camp Buehring in Kuwait.
Iran fired every single one of its drones and missiles defensively. They were trying to damage the US capability of striking Iran after Trump’'s initial attack in February. In other words, if Trump and Netanyahu hadn't gone to war against Iran, the US would still have all their Naval and Air Force and Army facilities in the Gulf
It took him 25 years, but Osama bin Laden is winning his war on the Great Satan. He wanted to bring to an end the American military presence in the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Peninsula, and Trump is making it happen.
