BREAKING: "Unconfirmed report that Qais Khazali, one of the people the US named as responsible for storming of US Embassy in Baghdad, has been killed in new Baghdad airstrike"
Unconfirmed reports that the commander of 40th brigade of Kata'ib al-Imam Ali Raid Karawi was killed in airstrike near #Sinjarhttps://t.co/9lXQ2ZsrrD— 🏴☠️ FJ 🏴☠️ (@Natsecjeff) January 4, 2020
“As I posted last night, the previous strike took out #1 and #2. Those terrorists must hate being promoted in times like this!”
I suspect retirement papers are being submitted by the gross.
Iraq: another pithole...an Arab pithole this time.
Don’t forget satellites. Have one branch of family that contains three working for government in that area. Remarkable what can be seen and heard from Space. Beginning of Spaceforce?????
That would make it an American drone strike.
Scumbag: I’m going to blow this place up.
Our President: Go ahead, dirtbag....I don’t shop here.
Oh, YEAH! I love this man!

Citizens in #Duhok have seen this scene which no body knows what is it. pic.twitter.com/1KZJg4wjb8— Blesa Shaways (@Bilesa_Shaweys) January 3, 2020
But didn’t that start with Obama? I’m not getting at you. Just trying to make “heads or tails” of the ME mess that has been going on for centuries.
That reminds me of HANOI JANE FONDA.
I looked up to see what she's doing. She's protesting, wearing her $5000.00 outfits and pretending to care about anything but her looks and career.
Am I being harsh?
You are completely out of step with what is happening in the military and the reorganization that has taken place since Trump came to office. Follow Space Command, DEVCOM, MDO, and Army Futures Command to get a sense of what is happening.
[Cheney would do well to keep his mouth shut. These Iranian military leaders would have gone the rest of their lives without setting foot in Iraq if it hadn’t been for the disastrous U.S. invasion of Iraq and botched occupation of the country.]
Since Bush ordered an occupation, it went about as well as you’d expect, given that the core of Iraq’s Sunni Arab male population had been left untouched by the invasion. While Bush’s rules of engagement were asinine, any occupation that fell short of razing villages* where GI’s were killed and forcibly relocating the villagers to new areas surrounded by other ethnicities/sects would have been unsuccessful.
* This was something done during the British occupation of Malaya, where the Brits had to deal with a similar recalcitrant population of a minority within a minority - ethnic Chinese who were inclined towards Communism. British rules of engagement were also notably looser than Bush’s.

Coming to a theater VERY soon with a nod to Syvester.....Our President stara in “Iraqi 3 The Final Chapter.
Sure it wasn't the "Baby Milk Factory" delivery truck?
If our personnel aren’t there, they can’t be casualties. No matter how good a defense is, there is always a chance of something getting through. And if our bases aren’t in their striking range, we don’t have to defend them - which again is easier and has zero chance of US personnel casualties.
It is not necessary for our personnel or bases to be in the location you espouse. We can work over Iran just fine from our existing positions. There is no need to move closer.
Additionally, if we were to move basing and personnel as you suggest, it would lend *IRAN* legitimacy that they don’t deserve. They would claim (and in the area be believed), that even if they were defeated, the US took them as a serious enough threat to get close and invade. This would give them prestige in the area. Is that what you want to do?
It’s better to act like they are a trivial threat and annoyance that is easily disposed of with little attention or effort, like a man flicking a biting ant off his sleeve.
“Medical convoy” = Signal they are not going to announce any more deaths.
At this pace, President Trump will soon be credited with an all-time low unemployment rate for virgins.
DEVCOM is part of AFC.
MDO is becoming joint doctrine.
What’s this?

Also #Mosul’s most famous social media page confirms that something happened southern of Mosul which was like earthquake or air strike.
