Colonel Rescued, IRGC Leaders Bombed

6 Apr 2026 ~~ By Shanaka Anslem Perera
Fox News reported on April 6th, citing CENTCOM sources, that US B-2 Spirit stealth bombers struck and obliterated an underground IRGC headquarters near Tehran using Massive Ordnance Penetrators during the same operational window in which SEAL Team 6 was extracting the downed F-15E weapons systems officer from the Zagros Mountains. The 30,000-pound bunker busters, the largest conventional weapons in the American arsenal, were dropped on a buried command node while hundreds of special operations troops were simultaneously fighting their way out of Iran with a wounded colonel. The rescue and the decapitation strike ran concurrently. The operators saving one American life and the bombers destroying an enemy headquarters were executing under the same CENTCOM directive, issued by Admiral Brad Cooper, during the same 48-hour window.
This is not how wars have been fought before. The rescue involved CIA deception, Israeli intelligence, deliberate aircraft self-destruction, second-wave extraction under fire, and zero casualties. Layered on top, B-2s at 40,000 feet delivered ordnance designed to collapse reinforced underground structures. The rescue was the story the President wanted to tell. The B-2 strike was the story the Pentagon wanted Iran to hear.
~Snip~
The 1 PM update produced no deal, no ceasefire, no new policy. It produced a president oscillating between miracle and annihilation in the same sentence, between “ending soon” and “Stone Ages” in the same breath, between cautious optimism about a deal and honest admission that he has “no idea” whether the adversary will accept one. The B-2 strike was the subtext. The rescue was the text. The deadline was the punctuation.
Thirteen American service members have been killed in Operation Epic Fury. Three hundred and sixty-five have been wounded. One colonel was pulled from a mountain while bombers obliterated the command structure of the organisation that put him there. And the 24 hours between now and Power Plant Day is the interval in which Iran decides whether the man who called the rescue a miracle or the man who promised the Stone Ages is the one making the next decision.

Good article. But what will take your breath away is the video at the bottom. It is a MUST SEE!
What a concept! Trump and Hegseth have emphasized and kept their word of "No Man Left Behind". It's much different than the Obama-Clinton philosophy they created during the Benghazi incident of September 11th-12th, 2012, where they totally abandoned Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods, Glen Doherty and the CIA agents and personnel.
Trump today also referred to the idiotic reporter(s) to shut their mouths, regarding the shot down and survival of the pilot and WSO. Who is feeding these word-sucking big mouths information?
We have to now question the media and their role as subjective reporters of daily information or biased anti-America Socialists.
