One month after starting the war in Iran, this is the statement of the President of the United States on Easter Sunday. These are the ravings of a dangerous and mentally unbalanced individual. Congress has got to act NOW. End this war. .@AnwarGargash, advisor to the UAE President: âFor us, the Strait of Hormuz cannot be held hostage by one country. . (Hormuz) has to be part and parcel of the settlement of any conflict, with clear agreement on that.

Running out of language to denounce and condemn. Iranian Civilians will be the first to suffer from the destruction of power plants and bridges. No heat, no electricity, no water, no capacity to move or to flee, and all that it means for their right to life. A revolting statement pic.twitter.com/SWMqREbjG9

In a moment when the region faces the treachery of the brutal Iranian aggression, I can only salute the resilience and steadfastness of our sister Kingdom of Bahrain, standing tall with an unbreakable will, under wise leadership and an aware people who stand as one to defend its sovereignty, security, and achievements. For nations are measured in times of adversity, and Bahrain will remain, as we have always known it, an impregnable fortress against every threat. A salute of appreciation and pride from the UAE, and we will defeat together the aggression of evil and darkness. This is the Easter miracle I was praying for today. Pilot, WSO rescued and all rescue operators safely out of Iran. What an extraordinary mission behind enemy lines. Shot down in Good Friday rescued on Easter. You couldn't ask for anything more perfect. Happy Easter all. https://t.co/GPoXHi8arr

I commend @POTUS and the U.S. Military for successfully executing the daring search and rescue operation for the American F-15 pilot and crew member officer in Iran. Israeli and American pilots and crew members are the best and bravest in the world, flying long distances and operating over the skies of Iran. Together, they are crippling the Iranian terror regime and making the world a safer place. We salute them! Gideon Sar
[He] was never truly alone because his Commander in Chief, Secretary of War, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and fellow Warfighters were monitoring his location 24 hours a day, and diligently planning for his rescue. US President Donald Trump
