Yes, all that winning that cost us 79 billion...What foreign bases were we "ran out of"? When you mention 42 plane destroyed your including 24 MQ-9 drones, aircraft shot down by friendly fire, C-130 aircraft we intentionally destroyed during operations, a few aircraft struck on the ground by Iranian missile strikes. Onlt a couple were lost during actual combat operations against Iranian aircraft and air defense. We lost 4 F-15s, 3 of which were lost due to friendly fire by Jordanian air defense usinf equipment we ourselves sold them.
In any even these Losses were all minor compared to the entire Iranian air force being wiped out, probably for decades. A bunch of our losses were helicopters, drones, and other utility aircraft, all a very partial loss to our inventory. All the pilots and aircrew of the very few manned were rescued. Iran's Navy ? Wiped out. Their air defense network ? almost entirely wiped out. 8 of their very few and precious F-14 fighters wiped out. Our 42 losses include those of allied nations. It was as one sided a war as you could wish for, totally dominated by America.
At the bottom is a full accounting of loses with description of events. https://www.globalmilitary.net/conflicts/iran-2026/
YesI forgot is it opened or closed right now?
Of course that is meaningless cause we will have to pay them back with interest...
I await their reply...
- The U.S. military conducted strikes against Iran in response to what President Donald Trump said was Tehran’s violation of a ceasefire by launching drone attacks aimed at ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
- U.S. Central Command said its aircraft “struck Iranian missile and drone storage locations and coastal radar sites.”
U.S. strikes Iran after Trump accuses Tehran of ceasefire violation in Strait of Hormuz
The attack comes as the United States and Iran are supposed to be engaging in a 60-period of no hostilities as they hold talks to end their war.www.cnbc.com

Well, Trump's word is worthless, might as well get that bomb going...Update: Iranian Supreme Leader orders his nation to go full steam ahead with the development of a nuclear weapon! Iran is preparing to drop out of peace negotiations and will race to develop and deploy a nuclear weapon as soon as possible!
“Iran has no choice but to build a nuclear weapon to STOP America and Israel!”
Plus, we killed everyone who knew where the mines were and destroyed all the ships capable of removing them....if i were Iranian, I'd demand free minesweepers.
