Emotions and pride ran high as the sun was coming up over Gowen Field on Saturday, as families and friends waved goodbye to just over 300 Airmen from the 124th Fighter Wing of the Idaho Air National Guard.

I was a military daughter and a military wife. My heart goes out to our young enlisted. Most of them are barely past being children. I hope for their safety and swift return and my heart breaks at the wanton use of their lives by madmen.
Does this deployment by the Idaho National Guard have anything to do with the three B-2 Stealth bombers that were recently flown to the Indian Ocean island of Diego Garcia, and which are rumored to soon begin bombing Iran for supplying weapons to the Houthis in Yemen?
Holy cr*p. He wants to start a war. He’s a deranged sociopath with nuclear codes 😡. We already had a “ nuclear deal “ with Iran during Obama administration and Trump destroyed it. Horrifying
Guard did say the Airmen were headed for southwest Asia (i.e. the Middle East) “in support of combat and peacekeeping operations within the U.S. Central Command’s area of responsibility.”
Yea, Trump as pissed of leaders of Arab nations. Living in Riyadh for 3 years taught me that these are the scariest people in the world if you attack their culture and welfare.
…. Er…. just where are they going…??! Especially when they are urgently needed at home to take down the irresponsible and dangerous tramp trump, the convicted felon and toxic sex pest.
Almighty God, we humbly come before you in this time of conflict, seeking your guidance and strength. We pray for those who are facing the dangers of war, that you would grant them courage, wisdom, and protection. 🙏
May they be guided by your wisdom and may your peace be with them. We pray for an end to the violence and for the restoration of peace. May your love and compassion prevail, and may each one return home safe. Amen." We The People Salute Our Troops!
