AllSides Media Bias Rating: Right
President Donald Trump did not ask much from our European allies before launching Operation Epic Fury. He didn't ask them to join U.S. pilots in combat in the skies over Iran or to contribute money and material to support military operations. All he asked was for Europe to hold America's coat as it defeats an enemy that threatens us all — by allowing U.S. forces to use the European bases where America has troops stationed to defend Europe and to fly over European airspace as Americans risk their lives to disarm the Iranian regime.
