Iron Eagle has been used in at least half a dozen "Q" posts over time, dating to relatively early ones (November 2017). It's near always been in the context of other movies that have parallels as a metaphor. As to the specifics of IRON EAGLE, I've never seen anything specific fully discerned + concurred by any anon yet.

Alice & Wonderland
Snow White
Iron Eagle
Godfather III
Speed
The Hunt for Red October.

Everything has meaning.

Based on the movie iron eagle maybe a rescue attempt told to stand down. Benghazi fits. Who issued the stand down?

Iran hostage crisis

The crisis reached a climax after diplomatic negotiations failed to win release for the hostages. United States President Jimmy Carter ordered the United States military to attempt a rescue operation using warships—including the USS Nimitz and USS Coral Sea—that were patrolling the waters near Iran. On April 24, 1980, the attempt, known as Operation Eagle Claw, failed, resulting in the accidental deaths of eight American servicemen and one Iranian civilian, as well as the destruction of two helicopters.

ThankQ, I’m reading all comments about Iron Eagle and just keeping an open mind.

Snow White movie reference is interesting.

The huntsman, who is sent by the evil queen to slay Snow White, instead spares her and cuts out the heart of a wild beast fool the queen.

Is the huntsman Mueller ... fooling his RAT backers that he has the goods on Trump?

The queen continues her murderous schemes against Snow White, who is saved by her Dwarf friends, and then by the Prince. But in the end the Queen is slain herself ((by the Prince Charming).

Q also claims the Seven Dwarves are CIA supercomputers. I don’t know how that fits in with my Huntsman/Evil Queen (Witch) analogy.
