At 4:00 p.m. (EST) Feb. 02, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces conducted airstrikes in Iraq and Syria against Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) Quds Force and affiliated militia groups. U.S. military forces struck more than 85 targets, with numerous aircraft to include long-range bombers flown from United States. The airstrikes employed more than 125 precision munitions. The facilities that were struck included command and control operations centers, intelligence centers, rockets, and missiles, and unmanned aerial vehicle storages, and logistics and munition supply chain facilities of militia groups and their IRGC sponsors who facilitated attacks against U.S. and Coalition forces.

I for one am glad we did not have any operations in Iran. They are begging us for the war to go hot.

We know the establishment will frame Patriots on J6. We know they want more war in the Middle East. How can we be sure it’s not the establishment framing people or countries again?

“They are begging us for the war to go hot.”

The last time we got serious with Iran we sank 2/3 of their Navy in a single afternoon. If we ever got serious with them again there’d be nothing left of their military inside of 72 hours.

Of course there are probably dozens if not hundreds of Iranian sleeper cells already here just waiting for the Go signal.

Stay armed everywhere you go.

Not surprised if this is a bunch of “...sound and fury, signifying nothing”

If Biden truly landed a blow, he would risk his Big Guy 10% payment. Not to mention putting the White House Iranian spies in a bad mood.

Any DOD patriot whistle-blowers out there?

I see you still say stupid untrue things.

Because your idiocy and support for America’s enemies (The globalist’s friends) is pointed out doesn’t mean someone your boogeyman.

You support America’s enemies, domestic and foreign but pretend to be conservative and not anti-American.

You’re typical of leftists who accuse others of doing exactly what they do.

You’re transparent, comrade.

Iran is at war with us.

We have not returned the favor.

Probably means their nuke is in the bag.

Yeah. The kids in the graphics department are busy using AI to produce convincing pre and post strike images for your consideration.

At least someone in the Pentagon has the good sense you’re blessed with.

The Pentagon generally leaves the actual war crimes to our proxies when possible. I’m sure you can think of a couple very recent examples of this.

VegPres’ handlers have been told there is no way to protect our boys in the 58 American bases within range of Iranian missiles. There are thousands just as at risk as the three Americans the Iranians killed last week. Unless you want hundreds or thousands of American body bags, get those sitting duck American boys the hell out of there before the Iranian War officially starts.

And those three American boys would be alive and well.

Sleeper cells inside could wreak havoc. (thinking in terms of committed jihadis willing to die for their cause. Lots of soft targets in the republic)

Stay armed, stay safe.

We’ll know if the strikes were truly serious by how Iran reacts...not verbally...but in real terms.

If no real reaction, it was all show.

If President Trump did this, it would be with no talking and no warning.

I’ve seen speculation that we used the Swiss to convey when and where we would “retaliate”. Notice nothing was targeted for Iran or Iranians. There has got to be a raging war going on in DC between the neocons and those few sensible dems and generals left who now realize where Graham and Bolton are leading them. It’s now or never on Iran for Netanyahu and the neocons.
