Yikes! Three U.S. F-15E Strike Eagle fighter jets accidentally shot down by Kuwaiti air defense last night around 11:03 p.m. ET.
"All six aircrew ejected safely, have been safely recovered, and are in stable condition."

Can’t help but think mid-air collision might be the thing. -
A fourth American service member has died in action. The service member was seriously wounded during Iran’s initial attacks and eventually succumbed to their injuries.

@AkaSci just a reminder that getting Americans killed was literally part of the plan the regime talked about before starting the war.
1. Get Israel to kick things off.
2. US comes to the aid of an ally.
3. Some Americans will get killed.
4. Use that to get the populace to support the war.Are we great yet?

The new U..S Department of War - "no stupid rules of engagement."
And speeches written by schoolyard bullies.

I remeber friendly fire in some US war from last 30 yrs. Afghanistan, Iraq or syria.
I guess it comes from the ancient wild west. First shoot and ask later. -

The US attacked Iran “preemptively” on Saturday to protect US forces from retaliation after learning that Israel was going to strike.
Marco Rubio: “There absolutely was an imminent threat. And the imminent threat was, that we knew that if Iran was attacked, and we believed that they would be attacked, that they would immediately come after us. And we were not going to sit there and absorb a blow before we responded.”

5/n@AkaSci How much does it matter how many deflections are added to the roots of these actions?
Someone's been continuing to pursue, an early stage sycophant state that's devolved to risking billions of lives, for billions of dollars and narcissism.
Remove abusive power.

And this is nonsense. It was obviously co-ordinated with Netanyahu and no doubt he was encouraged. This was put in motion after the illegal attack on Venezuela.
The Trump attacks on boats in Pacific & Caribbean are criminal acts. The blockade of Cuba, threats and bullying of Canada, Greenland, Denmark and Ukraine (where he has supported the Russian demands) are immoral.
The Iranian regime is an evil dictatorship. That doesn't give anyone the right to attack them. Principle of UN & law. -
