US retreats from response to Apache incident, Iran denies involvement
Shafaq News- ^ | June 9, 2026 | Staff

US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday the crash involving a US Apache helicopter was not a “major incident” and that the pilot was safe, while affirming that sanctions and restrictions targeting Iranian ports would remain in place for as long as necessary.

Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi denied Iranian involvement in the incident over the Strait of Hormuz, stating that “Iran was not behind the attack” and that there had been no deliberate action targeting the aircraft.

True or not, nearly everyone on social media thinks this was a false flag.

That might not be the case if Netanyahu wasn't a proven, serial lying sack-o-$**t, and it didn't happen on the anniversary of Isreal killing 34 Americans on the USS Liberty.

Iran has stood behind, even bragged about all previous shoot-downs. Not sure why it's in their interest to provoke escalation, which is certainly in Netanyahu's interest... for any number of reasons.

Two things are glaringly obvious - unless you're asleep. Trump doesn't want escalation and is looking for a way out. Netan-yay-hoo does want escalation and wants America stuck in another s**thole war.

CENTCOM says you're a lying, jew-hating traitor.

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces began launching self-defense strikes against Iran at 5 p.m. ET today at the Commander in Chief’s direction, in response to yesterday’s downing of a U.S. Army Apache helicopter. The mission is a proportional response to unjustified Iranian aggression.

What is that source of your information? Shitfaqs?

Every other news source and CENTCOM says that attacks are taking place NOW.

Who to believe? I wonder? So many hard decisions.

You sound mad.

Move to the Israel, where you belong. You can take your anger out by killing some Pali kids or spitting on Christians - maybe destroying their churches and statues.

Traitor? No, I’m an America first combat vet, sick of seeing my country getting exploited and robbed by your most favored Mideast Israeli s**thole.

The *actual* quislings are the Israel first 5th columnists, like you, who put a foreign nation before America. That’s the very definition of “traitor.”

GTFO... seriously.

History was made. The pilots were rescued by an AI driven PT Boat that was completely drone driven onshore. The DRONE WARS have begun. May the Force be with us.

Wow, you’re a real piece of work, aren’t you. A bundle of hatred you are. How are you allowed to exist on this website. Seek out anger management. You seem a lot like that also a Vet Platner running for office up in Maine. Really nasty and totally screwed up in the head and an anti-Semite just like you.
