But foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said the attack was now ‘concluded’, praising Iran’s ‘proportionate’ response and adding: ‘We do not seek escalation or war.’
Here’s another weird thing. I saw an aerial photo of damage to a base last night. The craters were not impressive. We do know that Iran notified US prior to the attack. Soldiers went to shelters.
No warheads?
Of the 16 fired, we shot down one and 4 others failed to fly to target.
...........
There were a number of very accurate hits, mostly on hangars.
...........
We watched the missiles being fueled, that starts a well known timer for launch. No surprises here.

Nope, we saw them coming, but not because they wanted to warn us.
Duh. They don’t want a predator snipin them anytime soon either.
Iran is scared of the Donald. They have finally found someone more crazier than them(in a good way for us that is).
“No warheads?”
.............
Sot of, at least 3 had no munitions, and we have recovered almost intact, 3 that went to ground. Big score for our intel.
“Big stick threat used expertly by the President.”
Yes.
They took out the refinery in KSA.That was a nice piece of work. Last night was about saving face, buying time,winning plaudits for restraint. It appears Pres. Trump is willing to let them have this since Soleimani is still dead. He made his point before even saying good morning. He is a businessman who recognizes that a better deal can be the enemy of a good deal.
Another ungraceful mother ####er taking a shot at Reagan :)
you guys make me sick :)
to my stomach :)
When Trump frees HUNDREDS of millions get back to me.
I Love Trump but you are a bunch of herd mentality f.. Reagan right up the #### POS on this board
but no offense meant :)
No more 0bama and wimps like Bush; with Trump you hit us we’ll hit you back harder. They’re bringing knives to a a gun fight.
“But WHY would Iran warn Iraq before the missile launch?”
Iran is full of spies, not all of them agree with the Mullahs I’m guessing.
They did a face-saving maneuver, and buzzed the back channels. That seems beyond obvious.
Reagan? Reagan destroyed 1/3 of the Iranian Navy...or weren’t you aware of that?
“I MEANT to do THAT!” - Pee Wee Herman excuse
The article itself doesn’t quote any “intelligence sources” and they don’t “reveal” anything. They have one line by an analyst speculating just like the rest of us that Iran missed on purpose.
This is a textbook example of a clickbait headline, worse than the DailyMail average. The headline seems to confirm what everyone already thinks, so people click on it, but then the article is just what you already know.
The original of this strategy is Joseph McCarthy’s claim that “I have here in my hand a list of 205—a list of names that were made known to the Secretary of State as being members of the Communist Party and who nevertheless are still working and shaping policy in the State Department.”
In fact everyone already knew the State Department was infested with communists, and in fact there were more than 205 of them. But the supposed statement (note there is no actual recording of him saying this) went “viral” because it seemed to confirm what everyone basically already knew.
Now that is what I call MAGA!!! For the first time since November 4, 1979 Iran actually fears the US.

Absolutely right.
Nixon wanted to be seen by the North Vietnamese as a Mad Man.
Trump IS being seen by the Iranians as a STRONG LEADER.
The Mullahs make Kim Jong Un look like a paragon of truth and honesty..............
