Iranian leaders issued strident calls on Friday for revenge against the United States after the killing of Maj. Gen. Qassim Suleimani in an overnight airstrike at the Baghdad airport. The strike spurred mass displays of public mourning by Iran and its network of allies across the Middle East.

President Trump didn' have any regrets and double down the previous statements.
He tweeted his first remarks since the U.S. airstrike that killed Iranian general Qassem Soleimani, one of that country's most powerful military and political figures.
"Iran never won a war, but never lost a negotiation!" Trump tweeted Friday morning. It was not immediately clear what Trump meant by the statement.
The president's first tweet, minutes after the news, was an image of the American flag.
Now we have a new video of the exact moment when Maj. Gen. Qassim Suleimani was killed.
The exact moment that Quds commander Qassem Soleimani and his associates were killed in the US airstrike at Baghdad airport was captured on closed circuit video that showed a blinding flash and blazing debris hurtling skyward.
The CCTV video taken close to the airport was obtained by the Daily Mail from Iraqi TV station AhadTV and shows a large explosion as one of the two vehicles was destroyed by precision airstrike.
I like the sparks
Awesome. Would like to see footage from the drone. :)
ping for later
It's so nice when targets identify themselves like this.
.
Those “sparks” may very well be pieces of incandescent Iranian.
Being discussed now on Hannity. The next targets according to Little Linda Grahanesty is the 3 major oil refineries which would effectively put Iran out of the oi business. Their only source of income.
(Reminded of the movie Airport ) The white zone is for loading and unloading...the Red zone is no parking...I said the white zone is for loading and unloading.
We need some warhead video.
Time for Well Bye meme.
Looking closely, you can see his head flying from left to right followed by this body which appears to be chasing his head.
I guess this means we’re not sending them pallets of cash.
He dead.
They dead.
The aftermath pile sort looks like a happy Pepe the frog.
I just saw another full video. doesn’t show much more but does have sound of missile strikes, and it’s a cool sound.
Trump is going for the people of Iran to over throw the regime...
Iran will bluster and the West will wring their hands, but more than any single action taken during the Trump administration this one told the world that he means what he says.
He has been quite clear about his position that he does not want to invade any nation, but he will act to protect American interests.
Thanks to Kerry, Pelosi, the professional diplomats, and our media, they did not believe he was serious. He was.
The decision now belongs to Iran. Do they strike out and suffer far worse to save face? Lest we forget, they have backed down before but the stakes are very high for them and the position of the regime is precarious with the Iranian people.
“”Iran never won a war, but never lost a negotiation!” Trump tweeted Friday morning. It was not immediately clear what Trump meant by the statement.”
Yeah, that’s a real brain teaser. LOL
