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.

The unrivaled combination of skill, courage, capability, gallantry, creativity, self-confidence, grit, rigor, ruggedness, toughness, sterling character, personal pride and patriotic selflessness the defines our nation’s warfighters (see: MacArthur farewell to West Point) represents the pinnacle of American excellence, which in turn represents the pinnacle and highest flourishing of Western excellence.
You cannot understand the heart of America without understanding the heart of those who built her. Frontier history never ended, its legacy continues in those who still perform our greatest and most daring deeds.
This excellence is unique in every sense of the word. Almost everything that has been wrong in past policy and present political commentary stems from being either willfully ignorant of, or outright hostile to, this simple fact.

Hegseth is embarrassing every woke general who preceded him. People can and will disagree about the merits of going to war in Iran. We all have our views. But one issue is not up for discussion: Hegseth's example shames his predecessors.

Probably helped to have a young GWOT trigger puller SECDEF who just said 'give those guys whatever they want and get it done' rather than trying to be too clever by half or whatever.

I do not want Britain to further become a third world slum packed full of imported young foreign men who can’t speak English, refuse to work, disrespect women and generally hate everything about us.
I don’t care if they arrived on a dingy via Dover, or with a visa at Gatwick.
A Restore Britain Government will remove them.
We’ve all seen the acceleration over the last few years. We can feel our towns changing, our communities changing, our country changing. I don’t like it, and I know tens of millions of Brits are with me.
Now is the time for all of us to find the courage to stand up and do something about it.
Because I am entirely fed up of politicians outlining the problem without showing the balls to do something about it.
Restore Britain has those balls.
If you agree with what I’m saying. Then join us. Help us. Support us.
There is finally a serious political party with a real chance of winning the next election that is on your side.
Restore Britain.
It’s our country. It’s our responsibility.
We can do this.

Now that both the pilot & WSO are confirmed safe...
A lot of people, both the usual grifting slop accounts and journos who should know better, were complaining that CENTCOM hadn't confirmed the loss of the F-15E.
It would be malpractice for them to do that while CSAR for the crew was ongoing. You don't give the enemy intel, even if it's something you think they already know. You don't make it easier for them.
At first all the reports were of a single seat F-35. You don't tell the enemy actually it was a two seat F-15E and there's two crew, not one, that you should be looking for.
The public is not owed minute by minute updates on sensitive rescue operations.
Transparency is good but it can't come at the expense of operational security.

People are asking how CSAR helos can operate over Iran after an F-15E and an A-10 were shot down.
It’s because the CSAR package doesn’t go in alone, it brings a world of hate with it. Any threat to the helos gets swarmed by a pack of rabid dogs. It’s still risky as hell, but overwhelming firepower lets us stack the odds in our favor.
