Can anybody else see this escalating quickly

Every able-bodied 18+ year old man: *Nervous sweating*

Yay, more war!
Because that's what we all need right now.

What in the heck are your warships doing near Iran? Would you be happy if Iranian warships were near The US?

[Arborist]

The war drums are thundering, I hope they stop soon..

[zzzzzzzzzzz]

It's a drone. They took a drone, we took a drone. I'm very much anti-war, but swapping 1 robot per country is OK.

The shooting down of the drone has not been verified. Iran also reserves the right to protect its interests and protect its sovereignty and independence.

“Nam? Haven’t heard that name in years*

Might I ask why the US Navy is there in the first place?

I'll be right back, I gotta go buy a years supply of baked beans and dig a hole in my backyard.

US: Turn away or we will take action





Iran’s drone: *BEEP BEEP BOOP BOOP*

Dont fight for these crazy rich leaders.

[ashhawk]

Time to see if hoarding bottlecaps finally pays off..

[narddog]

So this happened in the Gulf of Tonki... oops! I mean straight of Hormuz!

[outdoorsy]

After two hours of telling them to go away, they were destroyed immediately 😂

Wish they had that HD quality video of the USS Liberty attack from Syria (later found out to be Israel)

[dannielpayne]

Omg!!!! Please no war, please no We don't want We don't want #peace #nowar

"The drone was a very very near distance" . He talks like a 3 year old😂. 😂. Were the army people on the shippy wippy frightened Mr president when they saw the naughty drone.

I do not like war. I have 2 son's serving now one Army one Navy. Things are being said that make me disappointed in our on U.S. citizens. Who cares if Trump is not your cup of tea.. but next time Veteran's day, fourth of July memorial day comes around people THEN want to be patriotic. How about this country put their differences to the side and be proud to be AMERICANS. These men and women in service are just doing what is in their hearts.. Do what's right for their country their safety. Pray for them. Be proud of their service that they give not bc they had to but bc they wanted to.
