Good thing those drones aren’t the same. Almost thought we were dragged into a war with Iran for a second.

I'm shocked how many foreigners were in Israel and got caught up in this.


If this would have happened in June, me and my family would have become caught up in this. We even went into some of the Palestinian areas during our trip. We went to Egypt directly after that.

There are just tons of tourists that go to Israel. Honestly, I’ve been to 19 different countries and Israel was the most amazing.

The Iranians have buried their nuclear weapons lab deep underground and maybe beyond the range of typical bunker busters and there are apparently tactical nukes specifically designed as super bunker busters that are available now. They will eliminate the lab and kill everyone within miles of it as well as make it so radioactive no one can get anywhere near it for 1000 years. I could see it getting the green light from us

Iran already killed over 500 GIs in Iraq. This is not new. The Iranian ruling class wants to screw the west far more than they care about their own people getting tea and bread.

Speak for yourself, we have serious differences but countries shouldn't be allowed to frick with AMERICANS overseas regardless whether they are moronic liberals or nut job conservatives

And keep in mind the foreign countries don't discriminate based on domestic political leanings so if we give them a pass for fricking with a liberal American today they will frick with a conservative American tomorrow




I'm not saying they should. What I'm saying is that the world no longer believes the word American has any exceptional or special meaning. This is a country and culture that has lost global respect and even fear. Whether "they shouldn't be allowed to frick with Americans" or not doesn't matter. They do and they fear no consequence for their actions.

There was a period in my lifetime where if you fricked with an American abroad, the thunder would be called down upon you. Well those days are long over and they're over because we're a failing nation that's culturally demoralized. We don't respect ourselves as a people and the entire world sees it.

That's one of the primary reasons I love the USN and USCG. The sea doesn't give you an off day. It keeps you on your toes.

Iranian Drone plants, what an excellent target for a NATO/Israel mission. (Publicly) UAE, Saudis and most of the Arab states will secretly support too.

Sorry I am old, tired of the fricking Iranians and this bullshite, bush could have solved this long ago. They are going to be hit now nobody can stop the Israelis now, and we should use this as an opportunity to bloody their nose and take out some elements, and I am mean personally let them feel it. Like they are walking outside and they are just suddenly vaporized right in their back yard. Enough bullshite with the Persians. The Romans were right, they only respect force.

They had any easy solution. They kill a Roman soldier they just line up and kill 10 of your people, then 100 next time then 1000, after that then 10,000 etc until your own people will turn you in to avoid their families being murdered. It’s brutal but it worked.

We know who is behind this, make them and their families pay the price

The USS Iowa wants to be woken up. Persians are awesome, but Hamas and the Persian money they get sent can get farked.

But, we didn't know this was coming with the Allahu Akbhar stuff on 9/11. I wonder how many of my peeps (Jews) will leave New York and go to defend Israel. My bet is on far fewer than left to fight for Ukraine. I won't leave until I figure out how Texas figures out how to count child support properly.

It is the Twitter equivalent of boiler room cold calling. You give the person who answers the phone a hot tip you got from a trusted source of yours. If by pure chance that tip works out, you call them back and reel them in based on all your obvious amazing information.

Twitter users do the same thing they throw out something generally outrageous and if it doesn't come to fruition (oh I hope I am wrong) then it melts into the noise but on that off chance, something happens that they can point to and say "see I was right" they will gain Nostrodamus status.

Downvoters, would you prefer shots of our SSGNs?




Tomahawks are not 16 inch shells of excitement, but either is fine for me.

They apparently landed, then started shooting.

I often forget how bad 9/11 really was. Nearly 3,000 people died.


The comparisons I'm seeing is if Israel were the size of the US, it would have been as if 20,000 people died on 9/11.

It was the most Jews killed in a single day since the Holocaust.

I'm not too sure we can count on exactly how the Israelis will respond based on past experience of their typical response.

How did the parachute guys get in the air, is my question. How did they get into the air. How did the parachute guys get into the air. How did they get up thousands of feet. How did they get up there. One more time, how did they get up there?

You obviously read over the last pic included. He isn’t posting this as fact. Go check out his profile, read some other tweets, and draw your own conclusion.

I like how the attacks were at something like 6am under rocket attack.

However we see people out playing soccer (on sabbath and a holiday) and paratroopers under Egyptian colors.

Makes total sense.
