This was an unprovoked war caused by US and Israel

The Strait ( no s mr. l Know it all) of Hormuz WAS open, until trump started this illegal war!

So go back, check your facts and start again!

I don't have time to watch the video. I assume if we're saying "defensive war" the point of this video is that Europe should join Iran??
@
Europe and England should have nothing to do with America in this war
@
Eric mandel. Well well well. Not surprised by his take

Where do they find these guys honestly, 😅
@
The gaslighting is exhausting
@

@

@
A defensive war 😂😂😂😂 these yanks are nuts.
@
That was hot garbage. The only thing that gives me hope is the pushback in the comments so far.
@
Who started this war ?
Was the straight open before ?
Who's mess is this ?
Should we clean it up for the USA?
@
It is disgusting hearing the aggressor ask for help in an illegal war.

The thing about kicking hornet's nests is that the ensuing "event" isn't over until the Hornets decide that it is 🐝🐝🐝
