WASHINGTON, March 10 (Reuters) - A drone struck a major U.S. diplomatic facility in Iraq on Tuesday in suspected retaliation by pro-Tehran militias over the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, the Washington Post reported, citing an unidentified security official and an internal U.S. State Department alert.

Not an encouraging development
If the place isn’t empty blame Trump.
Iran sent missiles into several countries. They all turned against Iran if they hadn’t already. Question: If those countries hosted the US military couldn’t that be expected? Conservative media won’t even acknowledge it.
You tell me.
Who was it that said, “War is Hell”?
Not really news considering.
Give it a break concern troll.
No injuries were reported in the attack. The embassy was largely empty when the two strikes hit...
Do the IRGC have any allies?
“Do the IRGC have any allies?”
Yes, some of them are on this website.
Do the IRGC have any allies?
The Democratic Party?
Seems the IRGC must pay some of these imposters.
“Who was it that said, “War is Hell”?
Not really news considering.”

Trump, Rubio, and Hegseth have all said we are not at war. Who are you going to believe?
A more than fair point....
Yeah, yeah, we know you are concerned. What is it with FR now and all the negative trolls, wow.
“strike hit the diplomatic support center, a logistical hub for U.S. diplomats”
no big loss ...
Only idiots wait until the crazy side fires the first nuke……
Couldn’t have done it without helpful targeting info supplied by Russia
“Russia giving Iran intelligence info in ‘comprehensive effort’ to attack US in Middle East”
Not you.
Left wing feeding garbage to the media. Didn’t happen.
Is the IRGC a pro-Tehran militia now? They were IRGC drones, launched from Iran. Iraq is remarkably peaceful these days, for definitions of peaceful.
Strangely enough, we did not steal Iraq's oil, so I presume that they have oil money now.
