I did the calculation and not factoring any fuel, ammo or maintenance, or the missiles that shit them down, each of these planes was worth about 7,500 years of healthcare for a single person

Aircraft being struck by missile: Also my tax dollars in action

Oh good I’m sure this will help lower the price of groceries and gas.
But hey, on the plus side, that means US tax dollars will have to be spent replacing these planes and that will increase GDP!

Idiocracy in action.

Yeah right and those two jets just fell off the USS Harry Truman last year, accidents happen! 🤷♂️
Great allies there. Did they forget to inform Kuwait about the action?
Kuwait right now
With some friendly fire, that's a funny term, like civil war.

I'd say "call in the clowns" but we already did that.
Disgrace of a nation.
Donald Trump's fault. All of this is his fault.

Too bad the pilots are okay.

This may be Kuwaiti protest against US operations there. Kuwaiti air defense friendly fire is official Pentagon claim, and 3 starts to break the coincidence explanation. While propaganda narratives are that all of the Gulf states are about to go full zionazi against Iran, they generally do not want to get hit more than to eliminate Iran. Abu Dhabi stationed US planes fleeing the region is sign of quiet cooperation with Iran to remove targets on their back.
