Really seems unlikely that we didn't bomb that school... Given the level of incompetence of the Trump Admin, they never thought to check to see if Innocents might be in the path of bombs. They just aren't smart enough to look!

This thread is ridiculous. First the president is an idiot that shouldn’t speak. However, it is very plausible and maybe even more likely that it was an Iranian missile that was jammed. The tomahawk missile (munition in question) has a 1000 pound warhead. It would take out a much larger area than what was taken out. It is possible the warhead didn’t detonate but I find that doubtful. Now media outlets in the US are saying that a new video suggests that the Iranian media is correct. The video shows a missile before impact. The American media says it is a tomahawk. I’m not so sure. The vanes are in the wrong positions and the angle of attack seems too steep for a tomahawk. The pentagon is still investigating the incident.
No matter what happened it was a tragedy. All those children gone in a blink of an eye. To me it is highly unlikely that it was intentional or happened because of Pete Hegseth. Only a moron in my mind would come to that conclusion. Military strikes are planned by people far lower down the food chain and are double and tripled checked targets.
The President is indeed an idiot. We can agree on that.
I don't know what the acceptable level of children and innocent civilians dying is during a USA war of choice - but there certainly seems to be a lot of other sources indicating this was a tomahawk missile and that it was from the US
From that article: "A senior analyst at McKenzie Intelligence Services said the munition in the video has "all the hallmarks of a US Tomahawk in its terminal phase". "Wes Bryant, a national security analyst who served in the US Air Force, also confirmed it was a Tomahawk missile." "An ongoing internet blackout in Iran has made it difficult to independently verify details of the incident. Restrictions on international journalists' ability to report freely in Iran makes it very hard to be sure exactly what happened in Minab on 28 February." Article also states the clinic (target) is approximately 200m (650ft) from the school. So not at all unrealistic to think this could happen.
I also agree that the decisions on the ground operationally are not made by Hegseth ... but much like Trump and his fanboys wanted to blame Biden for the operational execution of the withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021 which would have been planned and executed by others - Hegseth and Trump own what happens in Iran, now and for the following decades, after choosing to go to war. The Biden administration were withdrawing based on a timeline set by Trump - it was executed by those in the military and Biden was royally, and utterly vilified and crucified for what happened ... it is only possible for a true fanboy to give Trump and Hegseth a pass on what happens in Iran and all the fallout that follows.
The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
Hold on... You started a thread because you saw it on Reddit?
No, it was on ABC, NBC and yes even your new Right wing nutbaggery network, CBS... This is just where I happened to find it on line... There are other places

"First the president is an idiot that shouldn’t speak"
Yup, he's an idiot. He proves it every time he opens his mouth. Liar as well.
True, it could have been an Iranian missile....But Trump is a proven liar... NOT ONCE but damn near everything he says is either a lie or misleading. So why in the hell would anyone believe anything he says.
As for it being a tragedy, We agree.. It's one that if Trumps incompetent "WAR LEADERS" had done their home work, may have been avoided.
But of course, you and the rest of MAGA world would never consider that.
Again, Trump said it best. Smart People don't like him!

New footage raises likelihood the US struck an Iranian school where a blast killed at least 165
JERUSALEM (AP) — New footage shows what an expert investigative group says is likely an American Tomahawk missile hitting a compound in southern Iran, meters from the school where a deadly unclaimed blast killed over 165 people at the start of the war raging in the Mideast.
It comes as mounting evidence points to U.S. culpability for the Feb. 28 strike, which hit a school adjacent to a Revolutionary Guard base in Minab, Iran, in the country’s southern Hormozgan Province. Experts interviewed by The Associated Press, citing satellite image analysis, say the school was probably struck amid a quick succession of bombs dropped on the compound.
A U.S. official familiar with internal deliberations on the matter has told the AP that the strike was likely American. The official spoke anonymously because they were not authorized to comment publicly on the sensitive matter.
The new footage, first analyzed by the investigative group Bellingcat, was taken the day the school was struck but circulated Sunday by Iran’s semiofficial Mehr news agency. It shows a missile hitting a building, sending a dark plume of smoke into the air.
The AP was able to geolocate the video and determine it was taken from a site adjacent to the school, while smoke was already rising from the school vicinity. Satellite imagery of the compound is consistent with visual identifiers found in the video, including a flat-roofed building, power lines and vehicles.
Trevor Ball, a Bellingcat researcher, identified the munition as a Tomahawk cruise missile — which only the U.S. is known to possess in this war. It’s the first evidence of a munition used in the strike.
U.S. Central Command has acknowledged using Tomahawk missiles in this war and even released a photo of the USS Spruance, part of the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier group located within range of the school, firing a Tomahawk missile on Feb. 28.
Bellingcat said the footage “appears to contradict” U.S. President Donald Trump’s claim over the weekend that Iran was responsible for the deadly school blast.
When asked about the strike at a press conference Monday, Trump claimed that Iran has access to the Tomahawk cruise missile, which is made by American defense contractor Raytheon. While the company sells the missile to allied countries like Japan and Australia, there is no evidence to suggest that Iran has acquired it.
Trump argued that the cruise missile is “sold and used by other countries” and that Iran “also has some Tomahawks.”
“Whether it’s Iran or somebody else ... a Tomahawk is very generic,” he said.
When asked why he was the only person in his administration making the claim, Trump said, “Because I just don’t know enough about it.” He added that “whatever the report shows, I’m willing to live with that report.”
On Saturday, Trump also was asked by a reporter whether the U.S. was responsible for the blast. Without providing evidence, he responded, “No, in my opinion, based on what I’ve seen, that was done by Iran.” Trump added that Iran is “very inaccurate” with its munitions. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth quickly chimed in to say the U.S. was investigating.
Neither the U.S. military’s Central Command nor the Israeli military immediately replied to requests for comment Monday.
Several other factors point to a U.S. strike.
One is the launching of an assessment of the incident by the U.S. military. According to the Pentagon’s instructions on processes for mitigating civilian harm, an assessment is launched after a group of investigators make an initial determination that the U.S. military may bear culpability.
Another is the location of the school — next to the Revolutionary Guard base and close to barracks for a naval unit. The U.S. military has focused on naval targets and acknowledged strikes in the province, including one in the vicinity of the school. Israel, which has denied conducting the strike, has focused on areas of Iran closer to Israel and hasn’t reported any strikes south of Isfahan, 800 kilometers (500 miles) away.
Complicating any assessment of the incident is the lack of images of bomb fragments from the blast. No independent agency has reached the site during the war to investigate.
Janina Dill, an expert on international law at Oxford University, wrote on X that even if the strike was a misidentification — and the attacker believed that the school had been a part of the neighboring IRGC base — it would still be “a very serious violation of international law.”
“Attackers are under an obligation to do everything feasible to verify the status of targeted object,” she wrote.
The Trump administration, however, strikes a different tone on international humanitarian law.
Speaking about the U.S. operation at a press conference March 2, Hegseth said: “America, regardless of what so-called international institutions say, is unleashing the most lethal and precise air power campaign in history.”
“No stupid rules of engagement,” he said. “No politically correct wars. We fight to win, and we don’t waste time or lives.”
As of March 2026, evidence indicates that Iran does not possess or use American-made Tomahawk cruise missiles, contradicting claims made by President Trump. The Tomahawk is a U.S.-developed weapon used primarily by the U.S. Navy, with sales limited to close allies like the UK, Australia, and Japan. Iran utilizes its own domestically produced cruise missiles.
