Need to task some Warthogs against swarms of small craft attacks. Cost effective and they could use navy, along with army and marines, on their side in the budget wars.
No need to be sorry. I’m good tonight. You can already see in this thread the armchair isolationists fretting.
So the Iranian leader says: We’ll attack your embassy and you can’t do anything about!
Then a hellfire BAM! Splat! A few goat humpers get their 72. What’s not to like about that? Ha ha.
BTTT! I heard about that “ You can’t do ANYTHING “ BY Whatever his name is, Chief of Iran. What a dumb Islamic ass.
I don’t believe this... Iranian high cleric just said on tv, the US could do nothing to Iran.
I’m waiting for Bagdad Bob to confirm this, before I’ll buy it.
“Senior Iranian Military Leader Sulimani & Deputy Chief Killed In U.S. Airstrike, while operating on Iraqi soil.
Is there a downside to this?”
Yes, we don’t know if the video of the strike came out good yet.
“Where’s Valerie Jarrett”?
She’s trying to calm down Obama who is mad as hell right now.

“Pompeo warned the stupid ragheads they wouldn’t like the response for attacking our embassy.”
When I saw Pompeo on an interview on NY’s eve, I knew he was serious.
I didn’t know POTUS was this serious!
This is like Bin Laden going down but better!
No joke, CNN is literally mourning Soleimani..
They’re dedicating next segment to his “legacy”.
I only check in to CNN when major news happens to see how ridiculous their spin going to be & laugh at all the sad faces..
They never let me down.
