Heaviest missile attacks against American occupation forces in Iraq happened in the past 48h

The Iraqi resistance is targeting American bases with home made rockets that where intercepted with Patriot missiles.

Each of Iraqi rockets cost between $2k and $4k, the total price of 40 rockets are in the range of $24k-$48k.

Patriot missiles costis about $2M-$4.1M and in total US used about $150M worth of patriot missiles to intercept $50k worth of Iraqi resistance missiles. They didn't even manage to intercept all the incoming missiles and officially 2 US soldiers were injured and some more received "shock injuries" (another way of hiding the number of injured soldiers I guess).

Price information from this article:

the latest version missile interceptors cost about $4.1 million apiece. Earlier generation missiles cost about half that.

Keeping this up going to cost a lot for US as Iran haa provided not only the missiles, but also know-how to create them locally using water pipes and metal cans.

Maybe it's time for US to end the occupation of Iraq and Syria and put an end to 21 yeara of criminal operations in those countries.

France 24, is now openly sharing lies about Russian missiles!

The video of a Patriot missile falling on a car in Kiev was shared a few days ago on social media and TikTok, I was shocked to see this post by France24 calling it a Russian missile! This is one of the 4 videos of failed or faulty Patriot missiles that were shared on social media, very similar to those shared in Saudi Arabia and UAE a few years ago. But that does not stop the France24 to call the falling PM as Russian!

This war and the reporting surrounding it really turning into a disgusting farce.

#Germany says Patriots delivered to #Kiev

The Patriot system is used to combat enemy aircraft, ballistic missiles and cruise missiles. Meanwhile, #Ukraine says an overnight Russian #drone attack hit the southern port city of #Odesa.

The US and Germany each agreed to provide Kyiv with one of the systems. The Netherlands has also pledged to provide missiles and parts.

German press agency dpa cited a German military source as saying that Ukrainian soldiers received training by Germany and the US in a NATO country where joint drills were held.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has vowed to find an "antidote" to the air defense system.
