Two U.S. troops killed, one missing after Iranian missile attack on Jordan
They are dead because of Donald Trump. To this day we never got a coherent explanation for why the President illegally attacked Iran in the first place (vague muttering about "Israel made us" or "nuke-u-lur" doesn't count), and we still have no strategy for getting back to the status quo.
Why doesn’t this stick to him like 13 dead in botched Afghanistan withdrawal to Biden or Benghazi to Hillary? Fox propaganda or lack of attention by legacy media. Trump has done 100 things to justify his removal. This should he an easy one in a sane world.
“President’s Narcissism Produces Dead American Troops” should dominate Democratic messaging.
They died so their commander in chief could feel like a big shot for a day and half 4 months ago.
Pretty sure status quo is off the table.
“we still have no strategy for getting back to the status quo.” Do you have thoughts about whether such a thing even exists? The Iranians were Pearl-Harbored during negotiations. Trump’s tactics across the board depend on failure to honor contracts. How does a sense of stability return?
The loss of American soldiers is bad. The loss of thousands of innocent Iranians is far worse. It is one thing to sacrifice your life for a pointless war; it is quite another to bear the guilt of the atrocities being committed to shore up one man's iniquitous pride.
the like 100 schoolgirls are, to me, more directly dead because of him and also more important. to me at least
It's incredible to think about how the press handled Benghazi and the Afghanistan withdrawal in comparison to how they're handling Iran. A shocking but not surprising dereliction.
Iran’s attack in Jordan also reportedly damaged multiple US helicopters 🤦♂️
They fired too damn many experienced military leaders and focus too much on things like testosterone! What incompetent fools we have running the country & military!
Well, good think they’ve been obliterated and re-obliterated are a begging to make a dea- Oh wait. Dammit.
I’m sure they are lying about how many were killed or injured.
I believe that our "allies" in the Middle East will become frenemies quicker than the ones in NATO.
So now Hegseth is going to beg Trump for even more money. Someone remind him and Trump that this is not a video game.
He is determined to empty our defense stockpiles and deplete our coffers, leaving us impoverished and vulnerable, isn’t he? Not to mention, get Americans killed for his self-dealing little forays into foreign countries using US military might.
NEWS: Two more American soldiers are dead in Jordan after an Iranian missile strike on a U.S. base. Footage circulating online shows the moment the base was hit.
Trump doesn't care. He is playing golf and knows he is safe.
Do we believe CENTCOM that there was only 2 Americans killed. You cannot trust this government
The US bombed a school and killed children so I don’t feel badly about a US imperial base being attacked!
Can no longer trust the military that they’re giving a full account. Thank you, Pete Hegseth. Were those poor soldiers low-T? I’m not disrespecting them or their families. I’m disrespecting the arrogant FOX couch commentator who has no business being SecDef.
Trump is playing golf atm sorry ⛳️
May those killed in service to the US rest in peace. May Trump and his GOP enablers forever be haunted by the blood of US military and civilians they have on their hands. They will never admit responsibility - but we must constantly remind them and the American people that this is their doing.
More deaths on Trump’s head
Now I'm sure there are more they aren't telling us about. They couldn't cover this up so they disclosed, but there are more they aren't telling us about.
I wonder how all the “Support our Troops” chimps are justifying this? Another soldier died because Trump is jealous of Obama. Oh & to protect Twitler’s billionaire pedo friends from getting exposed. You okay with that?
And more innocent Americans are dying for this narcissist’s ego.
I thought they were vanquished and that American defenses were impregnable though Is it possible I’ve been lied to?
Trump getting more Americans killed for literally no reason
I’m thinking of the 2 American soldiers killed, those injured, & the 1 still missing after yesterday’s attack in Jordan. I am praying for them & their loved ones. This senseless war should never have been started and it needs to end NOW. www.axios.com/2026/07/18/i...
How many innocent Iranians have lost their lives to date due to Trump’s illegal war of choice? Do we even know? How many were killed today while the asset of Russian intelligence, who soon after he started his war with Iran lifted sanctions for Putin, was playing golf on our taxpayer dollars?!
Won't somebody think of the children?
we know what this administration thinks of those americans we lost
Please think about challenging Schumer. If not you, Chris Murphy. We need a leader in the senate.
Democrats - start expecting more from your party leadership so they stop losing to insane rapists and convicted frauds
Thinking is good. Praying is pointless. Stop the illegal war. Call out the fascism.
Fox News contributor Joey Jones questioned Trump’s Iran strategy after two service members were killed in an Iranian air strike in Jordan. A third is missing. Jones said Americans will ask how Iran could kill US troops after Trump claimed Iran’s military capability was decimated.
trump will demand his firing probably
I don’t know who this guy is but I dislike him already
Isnt it crazy we keep Obliterating Irans military and weapons and they keep finding more!?
Trump’s War with Iran is a failure and a big mistake. Trump can’t figure how to end or get out of it. So, he’s just going to KILL more people, including Americans and children.
There won’t be peace while Trump is president
They’re starting to catch on.
BREAKING 1. Two U.S. service members were killed in action in Jordan on July 17 as American and partner forces defended against Islamic Republic of Iran ballistic missile and drone attacks, CENTCOM says. One U.S. service member remains missing in action.
2. Four others were medically evacuated to Jordanian hospitals and have since been discharged.
This news is heartbreaking but my gut tells me we are not getting actual totals.
Presidents used to address the nation after such tragedies.
How is this not war?
New — Two US soldiers were killed and one is missing after Iran launched retaliatory ballistic missile strikes into Jordan on Friday, per CENTCOM
How long did CENTCOM hold this news from families, the media? Americans need to REALLY know and understand the evil running the “American show.”
We had a working and verifiable deal in place. The Straight was open.
More Americans killed in Trump's idiotic war, but all he cares about is manipulating the stock market, lying about the 2020 election and blaming Canada for wildfires while he golfs.
Bringing the true death count to...???
Trump should have to tell those families himself- in person.
"Two US service members have been killed and another is missing after Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks in Jordan, according to the US Central Command (CENTCOM)." Two US service members killed in Jordan: CENTCOM says one soldier missing after attack by Iran m.youtube.com/watch?v=qDk4...
Thought that they were obliterated. I wonder how the Trump base will react to coffins draped with flags coming home. Families going through utter devastation for nothing, absolutely nothing. When will this lunacy end? 😞 #US #Iran
When CENTCOM finally starts admitting to U.S. casualties and KIA, it means they are hitting the breaking point where they can no longer continue to cover up losses.
The presence of US casualties in Gulf states has long been suspected actual fatalities are harder to cover up Trump will of course privately regard them as losers & publicly vise their repatriation as a PR opportunity This is a result of his pathetic failure to seek a lasting ceasefire
