what a scary feat of power, the fact that these pilots consider the Air Defense systems of Baghdad (the same systems that are actively trying to shoot them out of the sky) as being pretty to look at without a single jet being hit is incredible.

[@Metaphix]

Saddam learned why Americans don't have health care

[@KevinJDildonik]

1) We don't have healthcare because we allow corrupt corporations to control our health care. This does not make us the good guys. 2) If the enemy was so weak and ineffectual, it wasn't much of an accomplishment defeating them. Saddam was a US ally for decades. We sold him a lot of his weapons.

[@fakecubed]

The Iraqi air defense systems at that point were quite old. American and British jamming was very sophisticated by comparison. I'd be surprised if any of those missiles even were capable of tracking the planes in the sky. And the triple-A was just firing at random. I'm sure there were other classified systems in the sky that night we don't know about. A big war like this is when everybody pulls out their special toys to debut.

[@thelordofcringe]

​@@fakecubedan sa6 is pretty scary even now.

[@MrChickennugget360]

whats crazy is how much improved the bombing was compared to 1991. I take it the Jamming capacity had grown enormously since 1991 so they no longer had to maneuver to avoid SAMs like in 1991. All the experience from 1991 must have given so much electronic knowledge that those Jamming pods made Iraqi Sams almost worthless.

It’s amazing the lessons learned from Vietnam to the Gulf Wars (as far as air campaigns go nothing else lol). The total commitment to just bringing in overwhelming and continuing firepower and SEAD missions. Also keeping that tempo up for extended periods of time. Just the logistics and planning of this alone is wild.

[@Corristo89]

"Amateurs talk strategy and professionals talk logistics" is a quote that fits perfectly. Look at what happened when Russia just threw its military at Ukraine in 2021. Tanks ran out of fuel, planes lacked fuel, soldiers had to resort to looting and foraging, etc.

[@NJTRAF]

Yeah I served in the RAF and it was always incredible to me, and still is now, how much devastation can be unleashed when proper planning and Co-ordination is done. Like with Russia in Ukraine, if they did anything to drag NATO into it, they would be fucked. I’m almost 100% certain that since the day they started that shit that NATO members have been planning operations and getting everything lined up just in case.

@bolobalaman Yes sir. Moved here at 15 after the war and never looked back. I visited Iraq recently as I still have family there and took my American wife and kids with me. It is nothing like what it used to be pre-war, but it was fun being there and experiencing things from a foreigner's perspective! It is sad to know this war was for nothing years later, especially when you witness the amount of death firsthand! I lost family members during and especially after Iraq was handed by the US to the Irani regime. It gives you a newfound respect for life

[@potentiallyaheretic9281]

@@s4ss.m8In this case, I think KZbin is just in a position where it has a choice between pissing off its advertisers (its main source of income I believe) and screwing over content creators. In KZbin’s perspective, content creators are a dime a dozen so why would they care? They simply don’t profit from it and so they do stuff like this. They can’t control how content creators make their videos or edit them directly so they use a form of censorship to control what gets shown to the most people on the platform. In this way they are “media gatekeepers” or a least trying to be. This is found in a lot of other media, so it not uncommon or unexpected. But I absolutely agree that this is pretty despicable and that KZbin is overstepping its own authority as a public forum. By the way, my source for this comes from Agenda-Setting theory which, I recommend as a research topic.

Had C-RAM equipment on top of the old Baath Party HQ building. Fascinating to see all the damage from the strike. The dome was under construction, just exposed concrete and rebar. Part of the roof did collapse and fell into the huge meeting hall underneath. It did take at least 2 cruise missile strikes, you can see the penetration holes with wing strikes on the sides. We put plywood over the holes so not to step into them and fall 7 stories. Under the dome became a huge trash pit.

It's still weird seeing an operation I was a part of on this channel. USS Kitty Hawk was mostly used as a lilypad for air ops during this time and I ended up spending 102 consequitive days at sea becuase all port calls got cancelled. They'd tease a Bahrain visit a couple times, but the only thing we got were 2 beer days.

[@Stand_By_For_Mind_Control]

It's always weird to me because I spent years of my life in Baghdad but never as a part of any actual 'battle' other than what the insurgents brought to us. Despite all the training at gunnery with my tank, warfare to me is through the lone frame of reference as a reactive thing. It was almost exclusively shooting back at whatever shot at us. Like imagine being an Imperial stormtrooper stationed on Tatooine tasked with looking for rebels and hoping you don't get blindsided in an ambush. That was my life for a long time lol.
