John Roberts was just saying that it appears that MAYBE the Iranians were just saving face by firing off all of these missiles - that it was very odd that the missiles didn’t really do a lot of damage, and it appears no casualties. Roberts said that if they wanted these missiles to hit that they likely would have.
There was news earlier that said that the Iranians will stop IF Americans didn’t respond to their retaliatory attack. That makes me think that they are nervous of an attack by Americans, but had to shoot something off to save face after shooting off their mouths.

Now it looks like not even Iraqis were hit.
The Iranians deliberately missed.
This was all prearranged.

Hi, CottonBall!
Just in time for me to say Nite!
:-)
Amen!
One more thing:
It sure was convenient that this attack took place during the US evening news.
“That makes me think that they are nervous of an attack by Americans, but had to shoot something off to save face after shooting off their mouths.”
That sounds like it. Trump was very clear that he would retaliate against any American deaths, nothing more.
I think he needs to tweet about their horrible aim. In that sarcastic funny way that only Trump can do.

What is this, I finally show up and everybody leaves.
I’m pretty sure I took a shower this morning.
Yep.
“It sure was convenient that this attack took place during the US evening news.”
Actually it interrupted the Ken Jennings vs James Holzhauer showdown.
Cool, Ollie is on. I hope Hannity can shut up for a while.

I’m going to use this slide in church Sunday during the announcements.
“I think he needs to tweet about their horrible aim. In that sarcastic funny way that only Trump can do.”
I thought that too, lol.
The Iranians were burying Soleimani in Kermanshah about the time these missiles went off.
Maybe this was their sendoff.
It’ll be interesting to see what he does. He doesn’t always react like I expect, because he’s thinking way ahead of where I am.
How are you feeling?

IRAN FM: “Iran took.. proportionate measures in self-defense under Article 51 of UN Charter targeting base from which cowardly armed attack against our citizens & senior officials were launched.
We do not seek escalation or war, but will defend ourselves against any aggression.”
OR Deep state Iran trying to sucker us into a war?
Definitely a face-saving “attack”.
I wouldn’t do any football spiking. I’d be very thankful that all Americans are safe.
