Oh yeah,

Lets blow up a bunch of the air defense assets around the Capital City too, just to rattle their cages.

There’s probably something lost in translation. There’s probably no exact word for word translation for “we will surrender to anyone or anything bearing an American flag”.”

At their full strength they are so massively outmatched that it would be a pointless waste of the high ground. Those assets are of no use to them against our wrath should it be unleashed.

We got Solemani and a pledge not to attack Americans, gave up nothing in return, and the total cost was one airstrike. Let’s take the clean win and see what happens moving forward.

And on our way out, leave tons of C-4 and ammo.

Yep - it’s now almost 6AN CST the next day and it ain’t all over the news...seems if there was meat, it would be the only thing on the news this morning.

That sounds very Trumpian
He will be attacked heavily for it
The democrats will have to stop attacking him for escalating and join the Bolton - Hannity neocon wing to attack him for not escalating

But I think Trumps payback will be in further crushing their economy
The people went into the streets when the regime raised gas prices
So the rev guard had to vamp up security to start terrorizing the civilians by executing street protesters
This is the flashpoint that will bring down the mullahs
From within
And 50 million women being beaten into wearing headscarfs

Disenfranchise the Iraqi military leadership
Welcome to ISIS part 2

Fair point but what I was after was that in this critical time we cannot have any sleepers go haywire (as we’ve had domestically).
