Millions of liberals were sad to hear that a U.S. airman shot down over Iran had been rescued. They'd hoped to have a prisoner of war or worse to hang on President Donald Trump. During the daring rescue, one or possibly two damaged C-130s and a Little Bird helicopter were spiked to keep them from falling into the hands of the Iranians. (Although they did recover a teriyaki beef stick from the wreckage.)
Daniel Foubert has both Polish and French flags in his bio (X says he's posting from Poland) and describes himself in his X bio as "Polish oligarch, imperialist, and supremacist half of the time. French philosopher the other half." The French philosopher half seemed to have taken over his X account after it was announced that the American crew member had been rescued.
Lose all this to rescue 1 pilot and call it your greatest military success of all time. pic.twitter.com/EB36KGNxC5

These are the same people who will tell you you cannot shoot a home invader because the invader's life is worth more than your personal property. https://t.co/B4Dak0js0S

But we don’t call it our “greatest military success of all time.” We call it “business as usual.”

If you want to know why the US & IAF have the best and most committed pilots/aviators in the world, it’s because they know we will do everything in our power to bring them home.
No number of planes, no amount of equipment is more valuable than an American pilot’s life.

And it’s INSANELY BADASS that the pilot KNEW that no matter what, the American military would not leave him behind.
That’s the America I love. pic.twitter.com/sWBjUrqu1B
Yes, and your disdain is why France is synonymous with surrender.

Being French, it’s understandable that you wouldn’t understand

Yes. Because we leave no man behind, and it’s why the French are famous for their white flag surrenders.

We can build more planes. Not to mention we have plenty to spare. We can never replace that one pilot's life.

Froggy, we've got more C-130's than Iran has sand. Deal with it.

French? I can see why that is incomprehensible to you.

It’s not a math equation, it’s a message. If you’re a US service member, you know that no matter the cost, the country will move heaven and earth to get you back. That "priceless" morale is what makes an all-volunteer force actually function.

Our greatest military success of all time was landing on your beaches and liberating your country. But we are super glad one of our pilots didn’t die. It’s pretty important to us.

Foubert wasn't done, though. He spent a few hours playing with AI image generators and came up with this:

We care about our people. This is just one reason we’re better than you. Watching you realize this has been entertaining.

Why is someone in Poland upset that we rescued an American crew member at the expense of a handful of aircraft? Because they know they're impotent, or because they're rooting for Iran.
