Major intelligence coup. For this cast of characters to be caught in the open in a war zone of their own making argues some serious complacency on their part. For us to know about it argues something more.

Some of the mini-drones that are coming out in the civilian market are unbelievable these days.

Now think about what the military has access to.

You thinking someone in Iran tipped us off that he'd be in Iraq? The mullahs will really start dropping loads in their burkahs in that case...

I don’t know who said it, but the graveyards are full of indispensable men.

Iran has been at war with us and much of the world for a long time - it is up to them if they want to take it to the next level - all the way to that Ollie guy they adore and the slightly used virgins...

They are not the only ones. But I suspect the Israelis are a bit relieved today.

Iraq does not want to become a proxy of Iran; as we’ve seen, there are quite a few people protesting in Iraq against exactly this.

It would be interesting to get an opinion from the Basra Shiite community on this one. If they are rejoicing, then we’re good. If not...
