Just a guess: no more Iranian Navy.

5.56mm

They just destroyed a 131 million dollar drone - which means we need to inflict 393 million dollars of damage in return.

Yeah, that’s what I expect: an economic target (though probably not what an environmental disaster would result... probably a land-based rig or refinery).

But better yet? This could be a nice excuse to nail a facility supporting their ‘peaceful nuclear power’ program. One where we have strong suspicions that its doing something else.

“You’ll find out” does NOT mean he’s going to strike.

He wants Iran to wonder, for days and weeks on end, what the hell he’s going to do.

Personally, I don’t believe a US strike is in the offing.

They are at Defcon 1. It’ll drive them crazy.

I suspect the Iranians here will begin firing on civilians once the shit hits the fan. Obama put them in position, here, for that purpose.

If anyone who has a concealed weapons permit, now is the time to oil up the pistol and load it with fresh ammo, and dont leave home without it.

Since you raised the subject, there is in fact Israel, Saudi Arabia and the UAE that are in fact in coalition with us against Iran.

There have been several instances of major destruction of people and installations related to Iranian nuclear development. We are not permitted to learn of coalition covert action that has stymied Iranian nuclear efforts. In fact, we have no real knowledge of what they actually have.

I might be damaged severely

We were told rpeatdly that they will havethe bomb in two years, That was nearly 20 years ago.

One theory is that the supposed ufo alien abductions were to set up a future generation of hybrid dna offspring with aliens and humans combined to begin takeover.

I laughed until I saw this post, and the bug eyed monsters on old pulp magazines (Startling Stories, Amazing Stories) duplicated by Schiff and AOC.

We would become a slave race to be shipped to battle the “grey aliens”’ enemies so they won’t have to. I’ll sue for reparations later if they make me a slave.

Trouble if Georgio Tsoukalos says “I do not wish to discuss this matter” and gets a brush cut. Strange things coming.

Just worried about those 3 ex-Soviet Kilo boats. I’d sink those first. They ARE quiet.

Betting bammy, hillary and the pope all issue condemnations when it happens.

bammy loves muzzies more than the USA. hillary let Americans die in Benghazi. The pope facilitated the bammy/mullah deal in iran.

I would not want to be sitting on an Iranian rig in the gulf tonight.

But the sea breeze is so refreshing.

What are those high pitched searing sounds overhead? Incoming!

Obummer is the "gift" that keeps on giving. Traitor.

That was a VERY EXPENSIVE drone. The reprisal needs to be even more expensive. Big time.

Didn’t President Trump once opine it was stupid to announce future military plans to the press? I think to him that kind of question from the press is idiotic. (Not that 99% of press questions aren’t also.)

Striking Iranian oil export facilities is the obvious target. They are probably moving in human shields as I type.

...once they get the human shields into place, then we'll know the target we should hit first.
