    Not only will America go to your country and kill all your people. But they’ll come back 20 years later and make a movie about how killing your people made their soldiers feel sad.

    Film to be based upon the accounts of U.S. service members. Which means it won’t be anything near the truth and is just gonna look cool with big explosions and for some reason a high speed vehicle chase scene.

      More realistically, it’ll be based on the pentagon’s accounts of the accounts of the service members.

        The pentagon claims everyone the pilots encountered immediately tried to defect to us so hard, they were actually worshipped as gods. No combat, and gas prices fell to $1 where they are now.

      Will the high speed vehicle chase come before or after the slow motion shots of the american flags blowing in the wind?

      Mother fucker you dont understand the sacrifice of a few guys holding back unequipped folks while more sacrifice was made to save other sacrifices of folks equipped with jesus who had to sacrifice others in the 13 minutes to Jesus you take for granted…. This is Abraham and you are pieces of shit that don’t understand how this is sacrificed in ways that you have never sacrificed while we all wage a holy sacrifice…

      Landing site, or where they were picked up? Because one of them was picked up a lot later than the other, and was evading Iranian forces the whole time.

      So a big part of that distance could have been them moving around on the ground.

          I think the pilot was on the ground for two days, or close to it. It’s not an insane distance for a very fit individual to cover over that time.

          Might have stolen (or otherwise acquired,) a car or truck.

          It’s not like Iran is totally without development.

                  Ejection systems typically blast everyone out within seconds of each other.

                  It would require significantly strong winds to separate them that far. Usually separation is less than a mile or two, IIRC.
