Speaking of Obama, he’s been awfully quiet about this, and so has Hillary.

Yes, I've noticed. Obama, he lay low. Hillary, she lay low too.

The funeral would be a good opportunity to identify and pick out targets.

They had a car swarm yesterday, IIRC.

Or a MOAB over Tehran just to give them a warning.

“They hit near the embassy? That means what?”

It means Iranian operations to find locations to launch missiles into the Green Zone where the US Embassy based is underway.

The US MIC will look to take away safe havens from which they launch.

This is as much a war in the media as a war on the ground. It’s a war of ideas. President Trump needs to arrange to have a speech in front of the Iranian expatriate community that fully support this. Our side needs to be parading people before the camera telling their story of how Soliemani’s Qud’s forces have imprisoned their loved ones for protesting against the government and they are never to be seen again.

Yup. Rockets missed by less than a mile. Missile landed in his lap.

What a bunch of incompetent shit-slinging monkeys. I imagine all this did was piss off Trump even more and give him new targets.

Where did the rocket come from? Wherever should be turned into a glass bowl.

Are we sure we don’t?

Perhaps it was “down for maintenance”, or the enemy implants in our military turned it off anticipating retaliation for the death of the Fraud’s BFF.

Yeah, a A-10 Warthog burping out it’s song would give Ahab a pucker in his step.

Not upset or critical by this at all, it is expected. To think anything else would be stupid.

Anybody remember the video of a cruise missile flying down the streets of Baghdad on it’s way to blow up Saddam’s presidential palace?

That was cool.

The Ayatolla lives somewhere and some people can do something.
