I heard they were going to replace them with the British brimstone missile.

Nothing could possibly go wrong here.

Apparently it’s the largest order ever. Per news accounts last month, the Iraqi’s asked for 1,400, since they’d used up the 300 they had previously. Apparently the President upped the order. Here’s hoping the Iraqi’s don’t abandon them on the field.

I heard they cancelled that project. They couldn't figure out how to get them to leak oil.

No, they’re still a missile used almost everyday.

True, but per Obama's proposals, they're over in 2015, the Tomahawk in 2016.

I see...then Obama will withdraw support, and those Hellfire missiles will get into the hands of others who hate the United States.

What could go wrong?

Last comment wrong. The disapproval was for Israel, not Iraq.
