Our European Allies before we attacked Iran. "Our high principles will not allow us to participate in this illegal war!" Now, here are our European "allies" as it becomes obvious Iran is getting absolutely wrecked.

@FalconryFinance Speed Ball is just Spray&Pray. Now Military Scenario ball is a different story.

i guess you don't really learn worthwhile tactical skills at this sport anymore

@AMK_Mapping_ The missile passed below the aircraft at a considerable distance and its shaped charge detonated away from the Hornet's direction of travel. There is no smoke, debris or fire coming from the aircraft. It appears to be a miss.

An Iranian MANPADS struck the tail of an U.S. F/A-18 fighter jet over southeastern Iran earlier today, just barely missing the body of the aircraft.

@iranidaturan People who lack the courage to do a thing themselves often try to prevent those with the courage from acting either. Because it exposes them as cowards.

As an Iranian, I honestly don’t understand some American’s obsession with “no boots on the ground.” I’m asking this sincerely, can someone please explain it to me? From my perspective, I would genuinely feel offended and angry if I were an American soldier or commander. They are not children. They have agency. They know exactly what they’re doing. This kind of rhetoric deeply undermines the courage, sacrifice, and greatness of American soldiers. I understand that some people say this out of genuine concern for the troops. But to me, it reveals a scared, broken, and traumatized mindset, one that is afraid to face the real world and its dangers, and that comforts itself by denying reality. In the actual world outside, dangers and threats are real. The bravest and greatest people consciously choose to go out and protect their values. I hope these people heal from the traumas of the past, and believe in the capability and strength of American soldiers, and to truly honor their sacrifices instead of constantly undermining them with fearful slogans. #ThankYouTrump‌ #IranWar‌

@HarlyQ1 @PudrowWilson @clashreport Actually what the laser(s) do is create a hotspot away from the aircraft that the IR missile tracks on instead. The proximity fuse in the missile goes off thinking it's 50ft from the jet exhaust when its actually 100 ft below and to the right of it.

@PudrowWilson @CompassDrifter @clashreport Yeah the thing he said makes it sound like the laser defense stuff we got on the ground now exploding ordinance.

WATCH: Iranian MANPADS hit came very close to taking out a U.S. Navy F/A-18E/F Super Hornet jet over Iran yesterday.

@OneOutOf4 I hear Willy Wonka is hiring.

Hear ye, hear ye, we have an update from Lord Farquaad! 😂

@HarlyQ1 @clashreport I know a guy at Northrup Grumman who says otherwise.

@CompassDrifter @clashreport Dude they have flares chaff and maneuver. They dont have single plane lassr defense yet.

@IRMilitaryMedia Ahh, but you see, you are not facing mere "soldiers." What you are facing is a combined arms, integrated, relentless "system" of destruction. Most of you will die without ever seeing your enemy face to face.

To All American Soldiers! We hope you’ve been informed that #IRAN is the place where Palestinian, Lebanese, Iraqi, and Yemeni fighters have mastered ground combat at a highly professional level! You’re about to face a true master of ground warfare: Welcome To IRAN, Habibi!

@GoUncensored When the cops show up to arrest them for not answering a Draft Notice their cheap courage will fail them and they will meekly go do their jail time for draft evasion.

I’ve discussed the Draft with probably 10 people so far under the age of 42 and every single one of them has said verbatim “I’ll shoot whoever comes to the door trying to take me.”

@4thOfJuly365 It makes me wonder if people ever took a physics class in High School.

Make you wonder 🤔

It's 2026 and people still don't know basic physics. And their ignorance becomes a conspiracy.

@RpsAgainstTrump Anyone remember Chelsea Clinton being sent off to fight in Serbia? Or Sasha and Malia Obama landing with the Marines in Libya? I don't.

Former Governor Jesse Ventura: “How can you send someone else’s kids to war if you won’t send your own? So I’m calling on Barron Trump to enlist in the US military. Do something your father never had the courage to do.”

@DemocraticWins How does giving tens of millions of dollars in ticket sales to a billionaire rock star fight authoritarianism?

BREAKING: Bruce Springsteen just announced that his band will be doing a tour in effort to fight back against Donald Trump's authoritarian overreach. The Boss is back!

@SoldiersWhisper Stewart was a pilot and in the US Army in March of 1941, before the war started in December. He was drafted as a private. By 1945, he was not only a commissioned officer in the Army Air Corps but a Colonel with 20 combat missions. That's quite a thing.

James Stewart in front of a Boeing B52. circa 1955 After World War II, he stayed in the Air Force Reserve and remained current on Strategic Air Command bombers, including the B-36, B-47, and B-52. A 1957 report even notes him going to Loring AFB for a B-52 refresher course. His best-known B-52 mission came February 20 1966, when Brig. Gen. James M. Stewart flew as a non-duty observer on an Operation Arc Light strike over Vietnam aboard B-52F 57-149, call sign “Green Two,” from the 736th Bombardment Squadron, 454th Bombardment Wing. That sortie lasted about 12 hours 50 minutes and was part of a 30-aircraft bomber stream. Stewart trained in the B-52 and did fly on a real Vietnam B-52 combat sortie, but he is not known for flying a whole combat tour in the aircraft. The famous 1966 flight is generally described as the last combat mission of his military career. On the return to Guam, the crew briefly thought they had a serious flap problem, but it turned out to be a faulty gauge, and they landed safely. #WWII #TheVietnamWar #JamesStewart

@atrupar Entering the US with false identitification is a very serious crime. This is the way criminals and terrorists operate. These are crimes that Dems do not want prosecuted obviously.

Q: Will we see ICE arresting illegal migrants at airports? TRUMP: Yeah. That's why the Democrats are going crazy. ICE loves it because they're able to now arrest illegals as they come into the country. It's very fertile territory.

@sequi_simon Yes, the "smart" people are the ones who believe men can give birth.

I remember listening to my father as he read Hans Christian Andersen's folktale "The Emperor's New Clothes" to me, and as a child I wondered how people could be so stupid? And now I know. The United States of America, arguably one of the greatest countries in the world, is being led by an absolute buffoon and there are millions of people who are still taking the man seriously. It's quite incredible.

@360_Secure @adammocklerr I don't care. If the US violates "international law"(which is little more than a letter to Santa Clause anyway), it does not give Iran a right to violate the laws of international straits for non-agressor nations anymore than US actions would give Iran a right to bomb Japan.

@CompassDrifter @adammocklerr Had the US bothered to address this “legality” issue through the right UN mechanisms as Dubya did for his useless forever wars, even in a performative way, there would be something legal to stand on. As is, US simply violated Maritime Law first & still is doing so.

CONSERVATIVE: why won’t NATO help us MOCKLER: that’s not how NATO works

@RealAbs1776 True, as long as we suspend the laws of physics regarding Mass, Velocity and Inertia. If I accelerate an 8oz roll of toilet paper to 300mph and hit you in the head with it, you're dead. If I just chuck it at you at 20mph, you're annoyed but uninjured.

That an airplane didn’t take down the Twin Towers.

@BulwarkOnline Trump is not wrong about that. People who believe the US sits on stolen land and should not exist are the enemies of my country. People who believe the Constitution is "inherently racist" and was written "to enshrine white supremacy" are the enemies of my country.

Tim Miller: "I do want the Joe Rogans of the world to have to sit with this... [Trump]'s gotten us into a war...Americans have died...you're being negatively impacted economically...and what he's telling people is that the greatest enemy he sees is his fellow Americans."

@360_Secure @adammocklerr It doesn't change my point. Mockler claims that NATO is under no obligation to help the US open the strait under the NATO treaty. My point is that Iran has no right under Maritime Law to close the strait to shipping by nation not engaged directly in the conflict.

@CompassDrifter @adammocklerr Sorry that you’re fact checked to disallow your poor determination to be so obtuse. The law defining the strait’s international status equally bars any of its user nations (ie US) from attacking or impeding nations bordering the strait. So all the laws should apply, right?
