Rota to Ramstein is never closer than 2400 miles to Tehran. How is that plane "connected to the war in Iran"?

this is the same argument as the bombing planes are only getting fueled in the UK because the pilots say that they're not going to iran.

Oh, this plane went to Iran?

It went the same way your tax dollars did.

So, to a big-ass naval base in Spain, and a big-ass Air Force base in Germany? The closest point to Iran being an 8-hour flight away?

IIRC, the next stop for that plane was in Denmark.
