Its interesting that Iran shooting down one (or possibly two) US aircraft in its airspace is being treated as an 'escalation'.... Given Iran is clearly under attack from US/Israeli forces, defending its airspace is not so much an escalation as a perfectly reasonable defensive response (and certainly legal as far as international law is concerned).

But the narrative remains, whatever the media may think its doing, one that privileges the US's positioning on the 'war'!

@ChrisMayLA6 it's a personal offence for Trump - how can they shoot things down if their missiles are "destroyed or mostly useless", didn't they read his official communications (aka Truth Social) /s
