Iran warned Iraq about an hour before the missile attack that it would be coming — giving time to evacuate.

RE: Iran warned Iraq about an hour before the missile attack that it would be coming — giving time to evacuate.

In his speech today, Trump mentioned the DISPERSAL of our troops and an “Early Warning System that worked very well”.

I wonder if the “Early warning system” was OURS or was the Iranian warning to Iraq that you mentioned.

But WHY would Iran warn Iraq before the missile launch?

It looks like Iran did not want anyone killed ( otherwise why the warning )?

If so, my suspicions are confirmed. It was a “face-saving” measure so that they can tell their own people (they control the media there ) that they retaliated for Soleimani’s death by killing dozens of our troops.

Whether the Iranians ( many of who are clever enough to bypass their propaganda press ) will believe this is another story.
