  1. Probably about $5 million dollars well spent. 🙄

  2. Now is when we need a JFK and not a JRB. We need an administration that knows what needs to be done, why and when. I wonder if JRB would have blockaded Cuba in 1962.

  3. Why is there never any video footage???

  4. America is protecting its ally Israel .
    We are trying as much as we can to defend our brothers in Gaza

  5. America and the UK are NOT a benevolent power spraying freedom and democracy around the world, it has to STOP playing the world’s police. America is allowing Israel to commit atrocities against innocent people in Gaza while the whole world is watching and we are all against it. America is just supporting "allies" with guns and money whatever they behavior is (dictatorships, the Saudis, etc.) and annihilating enemies sometimes in the most inhumane ways (Iraq, Japan, and Germany 1945), destroying democratic governments and supporting brutal dictatorships throughout history (Latinamerica, Iran, Cuba). So it’s time for the world to stand up and say, America you are NOT a fair voice and you don’t have any credibility to lead the world.

  6. Please stop war Israel ukrain Russia hamas Iran Palestine Israel..please stop the war

  7. This Christine joy d.bautista

  8. Is Ukraine winning yet? Is America winning yet? 🕰🤔🕰

  9. Good thing Biden took them off the terrorists list.

  10. But there was a Chinese warship near the area and failed to provide assistance to merchant ships.

  11. Why are the ships there in the first place? This is my taxpayer money. Going to waste. I didn’t vote for this.

  12. I wanna know where they launched from, where they were manufactured to the last part, the areas launched leveled past human use, the manufacturers fined and any nation aiding them cut from international trade by siezure of or destruction ship and cargo. The time of forbearance needs suspension to remind these idiots that all someone needs is an excuse to return them to the pre industrial age.

  13. Tag line should read "Officials report …"

  14. Ooh no not again…pls dont let this escalate 🙁

  15. Like children playing with toys silly little boys 😂 !

  16. Bro we won’t even waste our navy on this bs if we ain’t poking our nose in others mess smh

  17. The US has no right to shoot down those drones before they hit their target. It's none of our business what's going on over there, stop 100% of all aid and support to Israel.

  18. O’Bama will never allow the US to retaliate against his beloved Iran.

  19. I don't they are using expensive missiles to shoot those down.

  20. Yeah, but has jumping flying fish mated buzzard or lil winged lizard growing into dragons yet?

  21. Yikes! That’s like $14 million to shoot down 500 bucks worth of drones. Unsustainable!

  22. Sad to see how our administration is coward if against this terrorists organization we need some one like Pres Regan Pres Busch or Trump be in Office we would already retaliated very quick our system in the US is broken apart by these liberals we are turning in a fourth world country running like the French scared.

  23. Evidence please, me and most Americans are not in the mood to pay for ANOTHER war we’re LIED into.

  24. If y’all don’t remember history of ww2 but this is pretty much the start of America entering into a bigger conflict. This won’t be enough to get the public to support a bigger conflict but it’s definitely the start to getting the support

  25. Heresay from a video game is far from proof. Maybe show damage from a missle strike?

  26. This is moving toward airstrikes inside Yemen to take out the missile launchers.
