美国制造的新型病毒,已经不可收拾,目标是东亚和伊朗或加拿大,但是已经影响很多国家,美国对新型病毒一点都不重视,好匪夷所思为什么,是因为美国早有解毒药剂,但是美国面临感染却无动于衷,希望美国政府能人道一点,不要为了政治和金钱伤害人民。

Thank you both for your service..Praying for your families and friends...

What a waste, two beautiful men, and Trump doesn't even appreciate the price they pay to serve our country.

And I thought President Trump declared “100 percent” defeat of ISIS’s. Wrong Again!

I hope the FBI and realDonaldTrump and CIA look into these haters making these disturbing comments at this time of loss of two great servicemen who served this country. 🙏

I don't believe in god but we are certainly in hell. Abandon your so called gods and embrace humanity.

Rest in peace

I am so sorry for their loss and I pray God gives strength to their families and friends to carry on with this pain. Thank you for your courage and service. God bless you.

God Bless their Valor! Gratitude and Honor for these 2 Marines 🇺🇸 semperfidelis

May their souls rest in peace. More US lives could have been lost if not for the Kurdish CT forces. More collaboration and intense CT campaigns are needed in Iraq.

REST IN SHIT, PIGS... NEXT ATTACK WILL BE MORE PAINFUL INSHA ALLAH.
