  1. Those could be parts from a VW Beetle, for all anyone can tell. Lol. No more convincing pieces than that–like a jet engine, wing, or cockpit canopy? I don't take the Iranians' word for anything.

  2. How can an AMERICAN military aircraft be shot down?????? How can 4 planes/helicopters be "HIT" by Iran air defence system/missiles?????? When Trump/Hegseth told the world they had COMPLETELY DESTROYED IRAN AIRFORCE, ARMY, MISSILES, DRONES, LEADERSHIP!!!! Now missing pilot????? ALL AMERICAN PILOTS HAVE GPS TRACKERS!!!!!

  3. REALITY NEWS: TRUMPS SPEECH TOLD THE WORLD "ISRAEL FIRST. AMERICA SECOND!" COVERTLY HE IMPLIED IRAN HAS WON THE WAR! TRUMP/AMERICA HAS SURRENDERED! PROOF? TRUMP STILL HAS NO WAR PLAN. Trump said…. "It might end in a 2 or 3 weeks!" Hilarious! Now he DEMANDS $200 BILLION FOR THE WAR!
    TRUMP HAS DELIBERATELY MADE IRAN THE MOST POWERFUL COUNTRY IN THE MIDDLE EAST ! WHY? The Trump/Hegseth WAR has allowed Iran to retaliate and attack/bomb critical infrastructure in neighbours including: UAE, QATAR, JORDAN, Saudi Arabia, OMAN, BAHRAIN, KUWAIT, IRAQ & ISRAEL. These countries economies have been smashed/decimated/destroyed! PROOF? QATAR has NO income from OIL/GAS. UAE tourism & oil income SMASHED! UAE $TRILLION Real Estate industry collapsing! THIS WAR LASTS YEARS!

  4. TODAY. SICKENING! Trump/Hegseth/American military now INTENTIONALLY bombing civilian targets! BOMBED a bridge under construction. BOMBED a world class medical research centre that has produced findings that has saved AMERICAN lives! Already Trump/America has bombed schools & hospitals! KILLED HUNDREDS OF YOUNG SCHOOL GIRLS! 1,000's innocent civilians killed/seriously injured! STILL NO WAR PLAN. STILL NO EXIT PLAN. NO OIL PLAN! 77million MAGARepublicans voted for Trump to do this!

  5. I trust Iranian T.V. like i trust the B,B.C. About as far as i can spit. Hope the pilot is safe and the stone age religious zealots don't get their hands on him. Muslims don't treat civilised captives in an honourable way, it is amazing how much cornholing goes on in a place were homosexuality is against religious law.

  6. 13,000 missions . I loss. The missing man is the Weapons System Officer. (Guy In Back)
    So .. Now US boots are on the ground (thanks to Iran). More US will follow to get him
    The last place I'd want to be be is near when the US Special Forces come to get him.
