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.

Don’t let the excitement over the action in Iraq and Iran divert your attention from what could and probably will happen here.
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.
It could be in your town.
Time to send them to the Dark Ages and set off a couple emps over Tehran
We don’t need to keep our troops in harms way. Let the whole Iraqi and Iranian nation go to Hell in hand basket.
Iran had it’s spend it $150 billion gift from Bammy on something!
Questionable reporting. Source?
Far too early to know what’s going on at this time. Reports are all over the map. Several reports say rockets. Several say surface to surface. Several use rockets and missiles interchangeably.
Dobbs interviewed their man on the ground and he wasn’t sure what exactly has happened. Just that he’s getting info of attacks to two airbases that house American troops.
“I hope we get all the Iranian subs. And totally cripple their navy and air force. That ought to be the first couple of items on Trump’s 52 list of targets”
The only thing worst than the the age / technology of these subs is the low iq fanatics trying to keep them afloat.
“Get a declaration of war”
From where? From a democrat controlled congress? Those traitors would rather see washington under occupation by iranian troops than approve a declaration of war for trump.
Prayers up for our troops.
air intercept story....
I just love heartwarming stories like that.
Next time it should end with a hotter ending for the bad guy’s burned marshmallow plane.
Destroy the Kharg Island oil terminal and their only revenue source dries up. Instantly.
bump
I was thinking the same thing...”Rain down” with a dozen missiles sounds a little exaggerated...
My reaction is an act of war is an act of war. Take out the Iranian. Yes that’s a very serious thing. War is war.
Locked and loaded
Precisely, my good FRiend.
If you have ever seen the classic western film Rio Bravo, you might recall a scene in which bad guy Burdett rode into town with about 4 hired gunslingers.
Dude (played by Dean Martin) confronted them and Burdett observed that Dude had no chance against (approx) 5 guns.
Paraphrasing...
"That's right, Mister Burdett, but it doesn't matter. Because if we start shooting, I'm getting YOU first."
Burdett then instructed his hirelings to comply w Dude.
Similarly, if the iranian top creeps know that THEY are the targets (and hiding only works most of the time), they just might not put that stick in the hornets' nest.
That said, one wonders are they s. m. a. r. t. enough for enlightened self preservation-related decisions?
.
I meant to write, take out the Iranian regime.
It will.
Israelis are reporting that Iranian air force jets are headed towards Iraq. They are all about to go down in flames. Their entire air force.
Iranians are demanding more “protection cash” to be sent on pallets.
Well, Iran probably doesn’t have rockets/missiles with the accuracy to ‘rain down’.
(But depending on how this goes, they may soon learn what ‘rain down’ actually looks like.)
