Details are still coming in, but Iran has launched a massive missile attack against U.S. forces in Iraq, including Al Asad Air Base, in retaliation for the American drone strike that killed Qasem Soleimani, a top Iranian commander, last week. A major rocket barrage on Al Asad, which sits around 115 miles west of Baghdad, may have also preceded the strikes. U.S. President Donald Trump has already threatened a major response, including potential strikes on cultural sites, against Iran in the event of any such attack.

Did l actually need the “/s”?
We delete one of their nation’s top military leaders, they sling a few “fireworks” somewhere near our people. I think the math works out in our favor by a lot. We just let things drop back to a simmer with our new reality enforced upon them. USA is back with an itchy trigger finger.
Iran just learned a very big lesson: President Trump is not a pussyass punk like that errand boy Obama. Trump should offer resumption of negotiations to arrive at consensus for new deal.
Agreed, most love us but it does not take many.
I just hope our military is tracking all the Iranian subs. Just one is a danger to our nearby ships, far more dangerous than gunboats. We need to knock every one of those Iranian subs out.
I have to leave this to better heads than mine; but what you say sounds good to me.
Cable shows are wetting their pants.
Get a grip people,President Trump should pull out and let the Sunnis and Shias kill themselves,we don’t Americans in the middle,he said he wanted out of these foreign wars,so bring them home!
I’m more concerned about sleeper cells here in the US and their supporters. They will lay waste to the civilian population. Makes me furious that past administrations and Congresses have blatantly put the lives of its citizens at risk, all for political correctness purposes. IMHO.....
Looks like they purposely missed their targets and killed no Americans - they are trying to save face.
If so, President Trump will not escalate - yet.
Sadly, Miss Tingles DID sub for Rush albeit some years ago.

What a liar...
And over here we put some bombs. Happy little bombs. *daubs at palate*
Irans AF consists of antique F4 Phantoms and F14 Tomcats.
Meat on the table for F22’s, F 35’s and F 18’s.
Someone many posts above, stated that Iran has the technology to put missiles where they want them.
So if it is correct that no one has died due to the fact that the missiles landed far away from barracks and other occupied buildings, this is similar to a rioter throwing a rock through your window.
Not nice, but not a justifiable reason to kill him.
For him, it makes him look like a big man to go home and brag “I sure showed them”.
we will need to wait a few days to see if this is all this is, or whether it is more serious and requires counter measures.
That said, I lean toward sinking one of their subs or maybe a couple of ships.
> Remember it is a known fact that there are agents of Iran here in the US and this might be their signal to make their move, whatever that might be.
Then there should be a real life re-enactment of the the movie “The Purge”. Purge them.
And, the democRATS are gleeful! MFer’s!
Careful, your critical thinking skills are showing
Just EMP the place.
Finally!! Someone who agrees that EMP pops over Teheran will decapitate the IRGC’s ability to suppress uprisings!
If they can’t direct their Basij thugs to where necessary to put down revolts, then the mullahcracy is doomed!
Mullahs are already inventorying their bugout bags: shaving kits, western suits, foreign passports & currency, plus plane tickets to Geneva.
Defeat their command & control and the Iranian masses will take care of the rest. As in mullahs decorating lamp posts.
