So Russia is helping Iran target American troops. Ukraine is offering drone defense.

Guess who Trump NEVER ONCE has EVER criticized?

Correct. Russia

A classified U.S. National Intelligence Council report completed about a week before the war began assessed that even a large-scale U.S. military campaign against Iran would be unlikely to topple the regime.-WaPo

President Donald Trump has privately expressed serious interest in deploying a limited number of U.S. ground troops inside Iran for specific strategic missions, though no decision or orders have been made, according to multiple U.S. officials.-NBC News

Bombs dropped, ships sunk, buildings destroyed, lives lost. All those equal war. Congress may be too timid to do anything, but we're certainly at war.

Why all the 'surprise'? That's what enemies do to each other. It's why we (at least used to) provide intelligence to the Ukrainians. Just because you have a pal of putin in the white house you expect russia to respond differently.

I would have been shocked if they weren't. After 4 years of western/U.S. intelligence being used to pick their armed forces apart, Russia was probably salivating at the chance to do the same to their American counterparts.

This is something we need to consider the longer this goes on.

Two KC-135Rs out of Tel Aviv are operating at 28k and 30k in the Persian Gulf. I'd say they're pretty confident they have air superiority.
