“...Every missile fired by Iran at US forces was paid for by money provided by Obama/Biden/Clinton and the Democratic Party!....”
Yep. They’re nothing but American-hating communists.
AINOs; American In Name Only. Anyone who supports, votes for, condones them. etc. is a traitor to the USA.

The attack on the embassy was an act of war. We are already down that particular rabbit-hole.

Pentagon: At approximately 5:30 pm on Jan. 7, Iran launched more than a dozen ballistic missiles against U.S. military and coalition forces in Iraq...these missiles were launched from Iran & targeted at least two Iraqi military bases hosting US military & coalition personnel..."
Dont be naive. The Iranians didnt just try to shoot down a drone. They tried to murder American soldiers. When you start a gun fight only one winner emerges. There is no "hey, no harm no foul"
President Trump to address the nation tonight..I hope he says..ITS ON, IRAN GETS TURNED INTO PUPPY CHOW
If there are casualties, God help Iran. I don’t think this will be another Carter/Bush/Bush type action.

“I think this was a really foolish move by the Mullahs.”
I think they saw the writing on the wall when their military mastermind was reduced to a smudge mark. They probably took his latest battleplan and started to execute it.
I’m wondering if China or Russia gave Iran their blessing to do this. I have no idea what interests those countries have in Iran these days. I do know back in the 1980s, they’d scare us with WWIII simulations where Iran was the start of everything (see the movie Threads as an example). Times have changed and I can’t see either Russia or China really caring about these pedophile worshiping, stone age freaks anymore.

If this is true, there is a retaliation right now that is nation wide and will reduce Iran’s military to ashes. No way Trump balks at the opportunity of a lifetime to rid the world of this cancer.
And best yet? No media... it’ll be done by morning.
Now heard that its still being worked out..he might not speak but they are working to make it happen
Trump to address the nation.
There is no reason to send any troops to Iran, can all be done by air, take out all their nuclear fields, everything..destroy everything they have by air..all of those missiles being sent to Iraq, WE paid for so thanks Obama
FNC using the words missiles and rockets interchangeably.
“bear in mind that with newly upgraded B61 that the yields can be dialed way down. Would there even be a mission for this?”
There is a penetrator version.

And it’s not to be trifled with.
Leave it alone. As long as there are no injuries, Trump is getting a free shot. Save them up and the minute someone is hurt, destroy all but one terminal. That will be used only for foreign ships.
If they have no nuclear installations what can they do.
Like it. Drop a tungsten coated Juan from orbit on Tehran.
