“No doubt you were also shocked that Iran blinked”
That’s a ludicrous assertion.
Is Goodwin one of the fools that believes Iran missed on purpose? Willful ignorance abounds...
They shot 16 SRBMs at US forces with 2,000lb warheads. Twelve of them hit the targeted compounds. And they ABSOLUTELY do not have the ability to miss on purpose.
And today they are promising more to come.
I share your concern. The Libertarians and globalists have taken over Free Republic. It's disgusting. Not responding to a 12 missile salvo the USA is making a big mistake.
