Prayers for our men and woman n the military, our civilians and for discernment and sound mind for our President as he deals with this
Wild Weasel time.
With extreme prejudice.
Amen.
We’d struck back at an Iran militia in Iraq last night.F-15s used.
Reports Embassy is being evacuated.
I doubt Russi or China will let Iran trick them into trouble with US during their joint drills though.
Too bad, so sad! Leave him there. The way the media treats our Military just upsets me beyond measure. I don't want a single one of our best and brightest put in harms way to rescue so-called "journalist."
Stupid son of a bitch took his chances going there, let him suffer the consequences.
The rockets were Katushyas, fired in retaliation for our attacks last night.
............
We hit the HQ of Iraqi Kata’ib Hezbollah militia in Qaim in west Anbar Province. Among those killed was commander of 45th Brigade.
...........
Confirmed that we are evacuating civilian employees of our embassy in Baghdad.
I’m also wondering whether the “U.S. journalist” is an American or just a globalist who was born here and hates our country. I hope this fool will survive, but I am not in the mood for another Bergdahl rescue mission.
Sooo... typical story. Just a teaser. What country is responsible for the rockets?
Jerusalem Post article on the strike, which was in retaliation for Iranian rockets on a US base that killed a contractor and wounded some soldiers.
Where are they being fired from? Inside Iraq? Or Iran?
USAF has some work to do.
Good article.
............
Breaking: The commander of the 45th Brigade was Abu Ali Khazali. He is very close to IRGC-Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani.
..........
We killed him with a drone strike before the air strikes.
“””Where are they being fired from? Inside Iraq? Or Iran?””
As I stated this was just breaking (coming out) on twitter..so we knew ahead of the media news stories...which by the way are just starting to post now :)
