Snip:
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Navy has successfully targeted the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier using advanced domestically-produced drones, forcing the strike group into a rapid retreat near Iranian territorial waters.
A spokesperson for the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters confirmed the operation on Wednesday, stating that the carrier was intercepted approximately 340 kilometers from Iran’s maritime borders in the Sea of Oman.

Following the impact, the USS Abraham Lincoln and its accompanying destroyers were observed fleeing the engagement zone at high speed.
“The carrier group has since retreated more than 1,000 kilometers away from the region,” the spokesperson noted, emphasizing that the US military presence failed to achieve its objective of intimidation.
They reaaaally don’t want pictures of a burning carrier on the news
I mean they’ve spent the last 60 years telling us these things are invincible
Which, I guess they are when you fight countries with no long-range capabilities that you can bomb with impunity
They really want people to think Iran is some backwater without any modern infrastructure or anything
Americans about to find out the reason they don’t have healthcare isn’t because their military is invincible, it’s because they got scammed by their Bourgeoise
You’d think that the fact that they haven’t “won” a war since they were fighting the same enemy as the Soviets would tell them their military isn’t as invincible as they pretend it is.
like >90% of US media, including media that has nothing to do with the military or national security, invariably has some inserted arc, context or dialogue scaffolding the concept that the US military is the greatest and most invincible fighting force ever imagined in the history of the galaxy.
if you say something like “the US hasn’t faced anything approaching near peer rival in 80 years and at that point their allies were doing all the heavy lifting”, no matter how accurate or well you cite your analysis and defend that position, you might as well grow a second head that farts from its mouth.
like you just told everyone at the 5 year old’s birthday party that theres no santa
Killing me comrades I wanna see pics
I really want to see a burning carrier on the news. What about me? 🚢🔥📺😈😆
the lamestream media is not for us
Two urber enriched nuclear reactors are on fire.
These colors don’t runThese colors can little a run, as a treat
what does mr. “they wanted to talk but i said ‘too late!’” have to say about all this?
“we’re only pretending to run away”?
It’s a tactical reverse advance.
why the fuck hasn’t iran sunk one yet? cmon! do it!
Laif Marouf says they didn’t sink it so as not to irradiate the environment and India.
I’m predicting Iran is going to sink a carrier with some hypersonics since the US killed 140+ Iranian sailors while they were waiting to head to a port. It wouldn’t even be much of an escalation.
It’s better to get them to run away. Sinking one if these things might have environmental impacts on the region
i bet a sunken aircraft career has less ecological damage potential than one actively engaged in war support.
as much as i hate to underrate the ecological destruction of a destroyed carrier group, all that JP-5 and other materiel degrading and corroding in a marine environment… the Straight of Hormuz, just from from heavy maritime traffic alone hauling so much fossil carbon, has got to be fucking gnarly.
its gotta be like port arthur texas and cancer alley already, an oily rainbow sheen catching the moonlight, caught fish coming with their own side of Quaker State.
I was more meaning a possible nuclear hazard

Who knows, maybe we’ll all get lucky and it’ll end up in the dead zone
BOO STAY AND FIGHT COWARDSahem sorry.
No no, it’s all good
We all want to see one of these monstrosities sink
MURICA hasn’t lost a carrier since 1945. Would be a major blow to cultist war effort if it sunk.

Typical bully. They’re all tough when they get the sucker punch in, but as soon as somebody starts some serious retaliation, they run off.
