The imagery shows that Iran completely destroyed the radar site in its attack on June 11.

This came after Iran said it had targeted & hit the US 5th Fleet in Bahrain with various drones.

The drones attacked the communication antennas & radar facilities of the 5th Fleet’s Patriot system.

The early-warning radar site was capable of tracking targets up to 470km away and cost the US upwards of $40m.

Iran — Ending US colonialism

Iran has focused on hitting US targets in West Asia since the US and Israel launched their illegal attacks on Iran in early March. So far, it has destroyed several very costly radar systems. This severely depletes the US’s ability to detect missiles in the region.

Iran also published satellite images of a confirmed strike on a 1000-ASR Early-Warning Radar system at the Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait. The strikes completely destroyed the radar system.

Obviously, the US claimed it intercepted all of these missiles. But Trump’s main personality trait is lying.

It’s a shame the early warning systems didn’t, erm, warn the US they were about to be obliterated?

Iran also targeted the Al-Azraq airbase in Jordan with 12 long-range ballistic missiles.

Satellite imagery from February showed over 60 US military aircraft were stationed at that base. This included 30 F-35 stealth fighters and 36 F-15 fighters.

Iran has also targeted two vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. This was in retaliation for several waves of US attacks, along with Bahrain’s Sheikh Isa airbase and Kuwait’s Ahmad Al-Jaber airbases.

The US’s Central Command announced further strikes on “multiple targets” inside Iran.

The US bombed Qeshm Island as well as the ports of Sirik, Jask and Bandar Abbas. It also destroyed two water reservoirs, cutting off water to 20,000 people, and damaged a telecommunications tower.

The US military said the strikes were at President Donald Trump’s “direction” and:

in response to Iran’s unwarranted and continued aggression.

This completely ignores the fact that the only reason Iran is firing at US targets is that the US illegally attacked Iran, alongside Israel, back in March. The US seems to forget that Iran has the right to defend itself against illegal attacks.

Consequences

As of March 2, it was reported that Iran had already destroyed around $2 billion worth of US military equipment.

This included an AN/FPS-132 early-warning radar system at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, valued at $1.1 billion.

Since then, the US has lost several radar sites and several aircraft, meaning that the cost will be far higher.

Iran has done more this year to end US colonialism in three and a half months than the rest of the world has ever done.

Whether it’s his ties to Epstein, raping children, or bombing sovereign nations, Trump has always believed he is above the law. However, Iran is now proving that the US will not continue to get away with its longstanding colonial traditions without serious and expensive consequences.
