The United States and United Kingdom fighter aircraft are currently intercepting drones passing over Syria and Jordan, Foreign Desk News reported. Additionally, Sky News reported that RAF jets were involved in the defense of Israel.
Earlier, Iran launched a barrage of drones and missiles, targeting Israel in a retaliatory attack, with Iranian state media adding that ballistic missiles were a part of the operation. Tehran said it wants to punish the latter over its embassy previously being hit in Damascus, Syria. Militant groups across the region joined in, with both Hezbollah and Houthis firing rockets as well.
Meanwhile, an Israeli source told ABC News that Tehran is solely focusing on military targets in its attack. The source also shared that the expected arrival was moved to 1 am local time.
Ok. Let’s do the 3rd grade math real quick.
1. American citizens start significantly pushing back against Congress sending more money to aid Ukraine in their losing war with Russia.
2. Congress decides to add funding for Israel and the southern border to the package hoping that would provide a path to get said funding. It didn't work.
3. Israel, for the first time since ever, decides it’s a good idea to bomb a foreign embassy (Iran) in a sovern nation (Syria).
4. The US and Israel know that Iran will have to retaliate & Iran responds with drones and cruise missiles giving the… Read more

Wolf Blitzer is leading CNN’s coverage tonight. Guest after guest is a tool of his former employer at AIPAC, each one clamoring for the US to attack Iran on Israel’s behalf. As Netanyahu once said, “America is a thing you can move very easily.”
US and UK are doing Iran a huge favor by shooting down these drones. In fact, it was probably part of Iran’s calculations - and why they gave so much warning.
They are likely praying the vast majority of this attack is thwarted. They get the street cred of launching it but don’t have to pay the price - which would be the end of the Iranian regime.
@PluckyHyenaPatriot2wks2W
But Iran provoked israel with their barbaric hamas attack and Israel has a right to self defense. We stand with Israel, a modern democracy. You stand with the barbaric, sharia law dictators. You’re anti white, anti Christian & anti America. You’re not the good guys.
@SovereignAndyGreen2wks2W
After the U.S. hit Soleimani, Trump says that he understood that Iran had to hit back to save face. So he managed the escalation to avoid a war. Is Biden capable of thinking this way?
@TariffEvaGreen2wks2W
Is Biden capable of assassinating the Iranian military leadership, sending the region into tumult? That's the "thinking" you want Biden to emulate?
The Biden administration's goal in Ukraine was to "weaken" Russia. Instead we've weakened ourselves. Our depleted stockpiles leave us in no shape to fight an extended war against Iran.
@JubilantActiv1stPatriot2wks2W
Biden did warn it would be painful for Americans, but worth defending "freedom (of cash) and democracy"🙄of a country the majority of Americans couldn't even find on a map.
The exception is Hunter Biden who was paid 83K a month, for five years, for doing nothing. "Poor Hunter" stepped down from cushy Ukraine job, five days prior to Joe announcing his candidacy.
The great empire crumbles from within, from hubris.
Isn’t time to take out some more Chinese weather balloons.
@ShadsMadelynLibertarian2wks2W
Iran waited for Israel and Ukraine to use up our stockpiles. For a couple years David Sacks and others warned of this. Now everyone will take on this view and claim it as their own. “As I was saying …” Anyway. No need to panic. We literally can’t fight WWIII.
@SolemnOtterPatriot2wks2W
We don’t have enough artillery or Patriot missiles left to go to world war 3.
