Did you miss the part where it was found and now there's multiple planes and helicopters destroyed. Sorry....scuttled...by the US.![]()
Also if it was successful, the US would be boasting about it.
Instead they're really trying hard to say it was all about the pilot and how super duper rambo successful the extraction was.
You can't have it both ways. Choose which is less embarrassing.
These Americans parade around and speak with an arrogance that is hard to fathom. Why does their interest take precedence over others? **** them.I wonder if the US is going to break out that naked F-15 after asking nicely stopped.
Trump acknowledged that, as our colleagues reported over the weekend, the U.S. military had trouble getting its planes off the ground after rescuing the officer and was forced to destroy them to keep them from falling into Iranian hands. The search-and-rescue forces were then removed by “faster, lighter planes,” Trump said.
Hegseth is comparing the rescue operation to the three-day liturgical Triduum, days celebrated by Christians worldwide spanning Good Friday to Easter Sunday, to celebrate the mission. “Shot down on a Friday: Good Friday. Hidden in a cave, a crevice, all of Saturday,” Hegseth said. “And rescued on Sunday. Flown out of Iran as the sun was rising on Easter Sunday, a pilot reborn. All home and accounted for, a nation rejoicing. God is good.”
Just when you think it cannot get more cringe.Anyone still believing a word of this bullschit is borderline retarded...
Some fancy footwork there....
More than $4/gallon begs to differ.Trump actually has no incentive to secure the Straight. The US has all the oil it needs. All good.
So this was all part of Trump's master plan? LOLTrump actually has no incentive to secure the Straight. The US has all the oil it needs. All good. It's more of a carrot and whip for other countries to start behaving.
