CAITLYN JENNER DEFENDS ISRAEL VISIT AS CONFLICT WITH IRAN ESCALATES

The drama is unfolding, folks! Caitlyn Jenner, the 75-year-old Olympic Gold medalist and trans icon, has spoken out about her recent visit to Israel amidst an escalating conflict with Iran. And let's just say she's got a lot to say.

In an exclusive interview with TMZ, Caitlyn revealed that she has "zero regret" about spending time in the country, despite the intense missile attacks that hit Tel Aviv and other cities as retaliatory measures for a surprise Israeli strike aimed at taking out Iran's rogue nuclear capabilities. Yep, you read that right - a 75-year-old grandma (just kidding, Caitlyn!) dodged bombs to take selfies with Israelis and foreigners in bomb shelters.

"I was proud to be in Israel, including when the bombings started," Caitlyn gushed. "I sheltered in place alongside Israelis and foreigners - Christians, Jews, and Muslims. The unity and strength of the diverse spirit of all faiths and nationalities sheltering together as one people was a ceiling I can hardly explain without getting emotional."

We're talking bomb shelters, folks! The kind where you huddle with fellow humans, praying for peace (and maybe sipping on some wine, Caitlyn-style). We've got exclusive pics from the scene, featuring Caitlyn and Israeli influencer Regev Gur guzzling vino in a makeshift bomb shelter.

Now, here's the juicy part: Caitlyn didn't just stop at praising Israel; she also gave props to former President Donald Trump (remember when they used to be BFFs?) and the people of Israel for "achieving a long overdue mission - the destruction and dismantling of the terrorist Iranian regime." Yeah, that's right - she thinks Iran is, well, a bit of a nightmare.

But Caitlyn didn't stop there. She took aim at former President Joe Biden (who's been quiet on this whole ordeal) and labeled his administration "pro-Iran" and "anti-Israel." Ouch!

Caitlyn even shared some adorable Shabbat selfies with her followers on X, saying, "What an incredible way it has been to celebrate Shabbat. I am here in Israel, in Tel Aviv with you all. I am a friend, advocate, ally, and thank you to the Israeli people for making me family." Aw!

But let's get back to the politics - Caitlyn wasn't afraid to throw some shade at Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei, who vowed to "inflict heavy blows" on civilians in Tel Aviv. Caitlyn responded with a tweet that read: "The leadership by @IsraeliPM Bibi, and Israel’s closest ally President @realDonaldTrump will not allow this reckless violence towards so many continue."

We're talking fire and brimstone here, folks! With Caitlyn's Instagram post declaring, "PEACE FOR ALL!" it seems she's ready to bring the troops (or at least her 5 million+ followers) together for a united front against terror.

So there you have it - Caitlyn Jenner, defender of Israel and scourge of Iran. What do you think about her stance on this whole situation? Sound off in the comments below!
