@Heathvolv Are they British?
If not, then I think that you have no choice.

Dear American friends who think your government is the same as the Islamic Republic in Iran,
While your government was moving heaven and earth, and spending hundreds of millions of dollars to save one American and bring him back home, the regime in Iran just executed two protesters arrested for the crime of protesting on January 8 and 9, with no proper trial and no access to lawyers.
Their names are Mohammad Amin Biglary, just 19 years old and Shahin Vahed Parast, 30 years old.
If you still think these two are the same, open your eyes.
This is the difference between a country that values life and a regime that murders its youth for speaking out.

@prHmeWqSs035112 Agree, if America falls, where then is the country of freedom?
Everyone is in danger.

I’m noticing a lot of foreigners who seem to not understand why we’d risk hundreds of lives, spend millions of dollars, and sacrifice several aircraft to rescue one guy. And the reason they don’t understand is also the reason people can’t be made American by a piece of paper.

Lose all this to rescue 1 pilot and call it your greatest military success of all time.

How Christianity ended slavery:
"Many people fail to realize that virtually every society has had slaves — from the Chinese to the Arabs to the Native Americans.
In fact, there is only one worldview that gave rise to moral opposition to slavery — namely, Christianity.
The first person to offer a moral and logical argument against slavery as an institution was a church father writing in the 4th century: Gregory of Nyssa argued explicitly on the ground that all persons are in the likeness of God — and therefore, he said, no one has a right to buy or sell another person.
In the Middle Ages, Christians made various efforts to limit or outlaw slavery. As early as the 7th century, Saint Bathilde (wife of King Clovis II) became famous for her campaign to stop the slave trade.
St. Anskar tried to halt the Viking slave trade.
Finally, in the 13th century, the great theologian Thomas Aquinas pronounced that slavery is a sin. But by then, it was not even a matter of controversy. It was the settled consensus among Christians that human bondage was wrong.
This history makes it even more surprising that slavery later made a comeback in the United States. American slaveholders were going against centuries of settled conviction that slavery was wrong.
And even then, who rose up to oppose the slaveholders? Who led the movement to abolish slavery? Mostly Christians.
Many abolitionists were inspired by the Second Great Awakening, a series of religious revivals in the 19th century, which emphasized that all humans are created equal in the eyes of God.
For example, the famous revivalist Charles Finney, a Presbyterian minister, condemned slavery from the pulpit, calling it a “great national sin.” He refused to give communion to slaveholders. Finney was the president of Oberlin College, an important stop on the Underground Railroad, a network of secret safe houses for escaped slaves who were fleeing north.
Finally, there was the Civil War. America is the only country on Earth to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of its own citizens in a war to end slavery.
Sociologist Rodney Stark, in For the Glory of God, points out that it was not Enlightenment philosophers who crafted a moral indictment of slavery. It was mostly evangelical Christians, and they were motivated by their firm conviction that all people are made in the image of God."

Leaving your American flag @AEO boxers behind… $15.
Taking an American back from behind enemy lines in terrorist-run Iran… Priceless.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW.
Per Axios:
The WSO is a very religious person whose first radio transmission for rescue was "God is good."

To recap, from the standpoint of local time: Shot down early on Good Friday. Rescued Easter Sunday morning. If it were a movie plot, we'd roll our eyes at it for being too on the nose but here we are in real life...

As an Iranian watching this rescue mission unfold, I was praying the American pilot would make it out alive, not just for him, but so the Islamic Republic could not use him as a bargaining chip or claim some twisted “victory.”
At the same time, I felt a deep envy.
Your government sent elite special forces, million-dollar aircraft, and moved heaven and earth to bring one American home. No hesitation. No excuses.
In Iran, the regime uses human shields and recruited child soldiers to clear minefields during the Iran-Iraq war. They treat their own people like disposable tools. They are now recruiting child soldiers as we speak.
The Islamic Republic has zero regard for human life. That’s the brutal difference.
One side risks everything to save their own.
The other sacrifices their own to stay in power.
This hits hard when you have lived under both realities.

So while a wounded American Colonel was hiding in a mountain crevice at 7,000 feet in Iran with nothing but a pistol and a prayer, and the CIA was running a fake rescue convoy to confuse the IRGC, and MQ-9 Reapers were methodically deleting anyone who got within two miles of him, and special operators were prepping to fly INTO Iran, fight their way to a ridge, extract one man, have two planes get stuck in the sand, blow them up, fly in three MORE planes, fight their way OUT...
The American left saw that the White House had gone quiet and decided: clearly, Trump is dying at Walter Reed.
They posted old video from the Butler assassination attempt as breaking news. They cited "credible reports." A guy literally drove to Walter Reed and reported back: no motorcade, no activity, roads open, nothing happening. Didn't matter. The narrative was already at a million views.
Trump was in the Oval Office the entire time, monitoring a rescue op so complicated it already has a Wikipedia page.
And then Easter morning. The Colonel is safe. Every American is home. And Trump posts: "Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards. Praise be to Allah."
On Easter. Signed "President DONALD J. TRUMP."
Say what you want about the man. There is no one on earth doing whatever this is. A Christian president threatening to flatten Iran's power grid and then signing off with an Islamic prayer on the holiest day of his own religion, twelve hours after his military blew up their own planes inside enemy territory rather than leave them behind.
The left thought he was in a hospital bed. He was ordering commandos into Iran.
This is going to be the weirdest movie ever made
