US was not following its own doctrine, they are supposed to move the planes more frequently than that for exactly this reason

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

He's literally a drunk fox news host who beats his wife. He's going to get so many people killed.
While the US was bombing school children, one one of the first things Iran did was strike US radar and early-warning systems. Now they have hit at the US' equipment for facilitating long-range bombing and aerial supply movement. These were highly strategic and intelligent strikes that instantly pulled the rug out from under the US military.
Iran has been preparing for this moment for decades and they have a huge geological advantage as well. The loss of US life and equipment is going to be enormous. No shit Russia is helping Iran while Iran works to destroy one of Russia's biggest foes.
Russia took satellite images of a U.S. air base in Saudi Arabia three times in the days before Iran attacked
How do they know? Does Ukraine have satellite tracking?
You can see the satellites. Pretty much all satellite orbits are public due to the nature of satellites being in space where we can all see them. When a country's military satellites pass over a specific location multiple times then that location gets precision bombed everyone knows exactly what happened.
They may have assets in the Russian intelligence apparatus. I feel like it’s likely even.
Very likely. See how Ukraine managed to conduct Operation Spiderweb, the drone strike against Russian planes deep within the Russian territory, which is hundreds of miles away from the frontline. The drones were released from trucks near where the planes were parked! So it means that Ukraine has moles to spot the targets. Kudos to the Russians who are not brainwashed by Kremlin and helping Ukraine!
Sounds like the lack of US missile interceptors Israel.
