Does it seem like there is very little video from this war?maybe I was spoiled back in the 80’s and 90’s where we got a lot of video from the war on tv.

I’m no expert on the subject, but I believe Iran has a much, much more restrictive environment when it comes to journalists being able to freely blast out their product.

We have videos on X of pretty much everything happening, pretty much right as it happens or right after. Within about 15 minutes of the first F15 being shot down by friendly fire we had video of the pilot being rescued being uploaded. We had the second F15 video and female pilot rescued within minutes of eachother.

Centcom is declassifying and releasing video from frontline fighters and bombers within hours if not minutes.

It's actually been the total opposite of your post, almost overwhelming with how fast information and video is being disseminated

The biggest difference is that CNN embedded with the forces during Desert Storm, so we got official reporting from various events. Wolf Blitzer and Bernie Shaw famously broadcasting from a hotel in Baghdad.

What we get now are tons of phone clips and some narrative. More content but not as dramatic.

To sum up your post, you said:

Israel won't put boots on the ground because if one is captured they'll negotiate for release, whereas America will because it's known America won't negotiate with terrorists

Don't go back on it now, we all can see it. And we all know you're both full of shite just making things up, and also admitting we're dealing with terrorists. You fricked your schtick up

Don’t you know it’s eating at the legacy media that they can’t dramatize it and give it to us through their filter first

CNN wasn't as extreme liberal as it is now.

Poor SOB probably didn’t even have time to make his new hire benefit selections.

Artesh is a conscription army. They are also undermanned, underfunded, and has less battle experience compared to the IRGC .


To date the IRGC hasn’t had anyone shooting back at them on the ground. They’ve been free to shoot unarmed protesters at will, kidnap them and execute them. An armed resistance changes that dynamic completely.
