The problem with this whole narrative of "did Iran pose a threat?" and "did they have nukes?" is that it doesn't matter. No answer justifies what Israel and America are doing.
Deprogram your mind from this bullshit thinking.
English
If you think the Americans give anyone so much as a napkin -- never mind bombs and planes -- without a catch that works to their advantage and without knowing where it is at all times, I really don't know what to tell you.
These attempts to extricate the US from Israel are becoming obscene.

This witch is about to go steal more gas from the Leviathan basin isn't she

Timely meeting with @antonioguterres. Repercussions of the war in the Middle East are global, and it is our responsibility to work for de-escalation and a diplomatic solution. The EU and its Member States are the largest contributor to the @UN. We are strongly committed to upholding international law and building a world where multilateral cooperation prevails.

Jesus, peace be upon him, was a resistance fighter.
He was the leader of the resistance in his time.

⭕️Iran Shot Down A US F-35 Fighter Jet Over Its Skies
Video footage of the interception released.
A major blow to the image of Donald Trump, who claimed that Iran’s air defences were destroyed on day one of the war.

PSA: if you're a journalist in a war zone, get in touch and hopefully we can do something about your cybersecurity setup so you're harder to track.

I haven't confirmed this yet, but given how Iran have performed in every other field, my gut instinct was that it was homegrown and not necessarily Russian or Chinese.

Iran used the homegrown Mobin Air Defense system in targeting that F35

Like I told you guys, all European and NATO countries are providing intel, logistics, and cover in dif ways, but some additional details:

@richimedhurst The UK, Germany, Italy, Portugal and others allow F-35, F-22, F-15s as well as C-17s and KC-135 refuelling planes to fly over their territories as they deploy in the Middle East. Not allowing a few B1s to overfly is just about public perception not keeping out of the conflict.
English
US bombers that leave from the UK to strike Iran, have to fly around Europe -- not through it -- because no one will let them use their air space except us.
How shameful and embarrassing to be directly participating in this. Keir Starmer is a mass-murderer from Gaza to Tehran.

'“Who knows better about surprise better than Japan. Why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?” Trump says, alongside Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi'
Oh no he didn't
CBS News@CBSNews
When asked why the U.S. didn’t tell allies about attacking Iran prior to the strikes, President Trump says, “we wanted surprise.” “Who knows better about surprise better than Japan. Why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?” Trump says, alongside Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, who is meeting with the president at the White House on Thursday.

Iran out here giving us a real life sequel to 300. Madness.

Iran release footage of US F-35 getting clipped by air defenses
English
I think the Yanks knew Iran was going to release it and tried to get ahead of the story with their usual "everything else in the universe except being shot down by Iran was responsible for the plane's return to the surface"
English
Yeah, that doesn't look like something that would be capable of an "emergency landing" without significant linguistic gymnastics involved.

Iran release footage of US F-35 getting clipped by air defenses
English
American planes have a way of finding their way to the ground that is somehow never directly attributable to successful AD but to friendly fire, emergency landings, or otherwise...
Take it with a big pinch of salt.
English
Americans are claiming an F-35 had to make an "emergency landing" after being clipped by Iranian air defenses.
