Just like when a cartel leader gets taken out. Just management changes.

Yes. Now is the time for maximum pressure on Iran.
But how much does it cost us to keep extra troops in the region?

Those guys have to come home soon. Unless the Dem House is willing to pay. Which they aren’t.

Trump said they had missed a second target located elsewhere when they hit Soli. Wonder if this was it.

It was reported that the "missed target" was in Yemen, and was another senior Iranian Military Officer. There was also a strike yesterday in Syria that killed a bunch of Iran backed militia leadership. Sounds like we are letting them know that fueling insurgencies that threaten the USA and our friends is gonna have higher a price going forward.

If I were an Iranian military leader, I would hope I had proof that I hadn’t been responsible for tipping off the US.

Good points...Pressure can come in many forms...economic duress for one.

Is a revolution coming?

In Iraq?

Good Lord, that's all we need.

We have troops and diplomats there. Who knows who would come out on top

Thanks - yeah it was Yemen that was sticking in my mind as 'hmmm think it was someone else.'

And yes, we have announced a tax on this type of behavior :-)

Careful, it’s a “earworm” tune...

The people don’t have a very good record w/ revolutions, without arms and organization. More like targets.

It’s moments such as this that cause me to always carry a snack size bag of “real” bacon bits in my pocket.

"US Special Forces?
Instead of them hunting us, now we're hunting them...."

If the communists manage to win in 2020, these "unknown" assailants will definitely be charged with murder...
Since most of the obunghole warriors are still throughout the pentagon, you can rest assured that somewhere, someone is already writing it up... Just in case enough Americans stay at home and do not vote, thereby allowing the communists to eke out a victory...

A perfumed Trudeau demands accountability.

Trump walks over and takes it.

I remember in 1979, that the Revolutionary Guards put roses in their gun barrels and refused to shoot and protect the Shah.

Bush was subject to the Dem congress in his Iraq war.
Trump ain’t letting that happen to him.
