Bravo": Two Days in Iran

"Bravo," a U.S. Air Force weapons officer, told 60 Minutes that his biggest fear was letting down the team that had come to rescue him.

He said:

"I knew they were coming. I knew that America, whether it took a day or a year, would keep its promise and come to get me."

Bravo knew that a search team from the Islamic Republic of Iran was looking for him. He was armed, but his entire focus was on survival and staying away from the Iranian forces.

"I didn't let even a sliver of my focus go towards things that were out of my control."

Two days in Iran, wounded and on the run; but with the belief that America would eventually come to rescue him.

The Gripping Story of "Bravo": Two Days on the Run in Iran

After the crash, while injured and with a broken bone, he found himself in a high, dry valley, surrounded by rocks. To increase his chances of survival, despite his injuries, he moved towards higher ground and reached a ridge at an altitude of approximately 7,000 feet (2,133 meters).

Bravo knew that Iranian forces might soon search the area, so he tried to get away from the crash site as quickly as possible and make contact with American forces.

He remained committed to the same principle he had taught his troops during the war:

"Never let a lack of motivation lead you to appear on Iranian television."

The harrowing account of "Bravo": Two days of escape and hiding in Iran.

He said his first priority was to get away from the landing site and find a hiding place.

The ejection seat was damaged, and he had lost his survival kit, which included food, extra water, and medical supplies. He only had his survival vest, which contained a small amount of water, communication and signaling equipment, and a few essential tools.

Bravo tried to treat his external wounds and bleeding as much as possible, but he couldn't do anything about his internal injuries.

He said, "Every opportunity I had, I tried to contact my own forces."

However, making contact was never more important than escaping the forces of the Islamic Republic, staying hidden, and coping with the harsh environmental conditions.

U.S. Secretary of Defense Hegsseth's Reaction to the News of a U.S. F-15E Being Shot Down Over Iran.

U.S. Secretary of Defense Hegsseth, in an interview with 60 Minutes, said that he was awakened in the middle of the night in April by the news that a U.S. F-15E had been shot down over Iran.

The first thought that crossed his mind?

"Shit"

Lebanese media channel “This is Beirut” and Israel’s “i24” are collaborating, looks like people and companies aren’t waiting for the green light from the government to begin normalizing.

The United Kingdom sanctioned Israel just a few days ago, demanding the two-state solution.

Today, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland are advancing toward their independence, and the United Kingdom is crumbling.

This is the hand of G-d acting before our very eyes.

They asked for two states and received four.

It appears that Saudi Arabia is currently experiencing a situation analogous to the challenges Israel has faced over the years.

The presence of terrorist organizations in proximity constitutes an existential threat that cannot be permitted.

Christopher Wright, U.S. Secretary of Energy, on Iran:

Iran has a choice. They have one choice.
They can return to the international community and bring peace, opportunity, and prosperity to their 90 million citizens, and bring economic growth and prosperity to the region.
Or they can continue their deceptive, hidden, and sinister efforts to develop nuclear weapons, which will ultimately fail.
Over the decades, these actions have brought great economic turmoil, death, and destruction to the region.
Now is the time for Iran to make a choice. They don't have many cards left, and the United States has made significant progress.

Christopher Wright, U.S. Secretary of Energy, on Iran:

Today, the average amount of oil and petroleum products that are transported through the Strait of Hormuz to the sea is up to 10 million barrels per day.
You will see that this number will increase in the coming weeks. And if we add the flow of oil from secondary pipelines to that, the amount of energy transferred from this region reaches 13, 14, or 15 million barrels per day.
Therefore, a significant portion of the oil transfer volume, before the conflict, which has not yet fully returned to normal, is continuing with very good progress, and we will continue this trend.
Now it is up to Iran to bring peace back to this region.

the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, on Iran:

The U.S. Department of the Treasury has launched an "economic isolation" campaign to cut off all financial channels of the Iranian regime and its supporters.

Therefore, I have issued a new call to whistleblowers to provide us with information about individuals who are helping to finance and support terrorism by the Islamic Republic.

To anyone, anywhere in the world, who has information about these financial channels: this is your opportunity.

If you have actionable information for the U.S. Department of the Treasury, you may be eligible to receive a financial reward, regardless of where you live or who your employer is.

If you see something, report it.

Trump:

A country called Iran, which is collapsing, wants to quickly reach an agreement at any cost. I will decide whether the United States wants to participate in this matter or not. We are open-minded about this idea. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Donald Trump, the President of the United States, posted on the social media platform Truth Social:

I hope everyone realizes that the increase in prices across America was a result of Joe Biden and his administration, not "Trump."

Even the price of oil was higher during Biden's time than it is now, and we prevented Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons!

With the exception of a temporary spike in oil prices, prices are rapidly decreasing, and as soon as the military conflict with Iran ends, oil prices will also decrease significantly, and that will happen very soon.

Donald Trump, the President of the United States, via the social media platform Truth Social:

Oil is flowing through the Strait of Hormuz.

Countries around the world, which have provided no assistance, will and must compensate the United States for the costs it has incurred, once this deception and chaos ends.

We do this more for others than for ourselves, and we have been doing so for generations!

Prime Minister Netanyahu:
"We have achieved another great victory over Hezbollah. We have destroyed their main terrorist bases in the "Bifort" and "Ali Taher" areas.

Our policy is clear: we will continue to dismantle terrorist infrastructure in the "security zone" of Lebanon and eliminate any threat to Israel.

And to our enemies, I say: if you have not yet learned your lesson and are planning to attack us again, you will suffer even heavier blows. There are still things to be done, and we will complete them."
