    Aim for the skies Iran! I’m rooting for a lot more aircraft and a couple of aircraft carriers to be added to that tally!

      I get the sentiment, but that’s thousands of deaths.

      Edit: It seems we have a ton of war hawks here. I know that Iran is defending itself, as they should. But nobody should be cheering on the war and deaths of thousands on any side. I would cheer on the total withdrawal of the US. I would rather nobody dies senseless deaths.

        They are completely allowed to refuse these orders but choose to follow them. Congress has not approved this war so it is 100% illegal. No soldier should carry out orders given illegally.

          Yeah, I can get behind that. But sinking multiple carriers is a bit extreme. I think what we all really want is the immediate withdrawal of those carriers and no more death.

            Extreme? They’re getting bombed, their public infrastructure is getting targeted, schoolchildren are dying, but killing US soldiers is a step too far???

                Tell me please, how do you stop an enemy army from killing your people & destroying your infrastructure? Do you think the US will go back if asked politely? Be serious
