from what I just read on Arutz Sheva, President Trump says that the U.S. will pound Iran once again, and that this is “not a warning, but a threat.”

This due to our embassy there being attacked by Iraqi militia allied with Iran (our embassador there and his staff were safely evacuated), in which windows were broken, fires set, and the protestors and militia bursting inside the embassy compound.

Boom, boom, BOOM!!!

I think after the embassy is empty of US personnel the BUFFs should drop flyers telling everyone to vacate the area by many miles.

Then drop a MOAB right on the embassy

Flatten a major piece of real property.
Be sure there are occupants worthy of moving on...

Something tells me that we better start putting our heavy weapons manufacturing into overdrive. It seems that there’s a lot of chit going on around the world that don’t look good. While the Rat’s are distracting people with the fake impeachment bad actors around the world will take advantage and make some moves.

At least six U.S. soldiers were seen standing on the roof of the main building pointing their firearms at the demonstrators Tuesday afternoon as the chaotic scene is still unfolding in the Iraqi capital, where the sounds of gunfire could be heard.

I think I see the problem here...

Be sure to tell them there is sexual bliss awaiting in the Embassy.

It probably is not prudent to fire on the demonstrators. But it does seem like a good opportunity to try out various non-lethal crowd control devices.

The Iraquis opened the green zone gates to allow “the mourners” (so dubbed by media) into the embassy grounds.

We can easily make it so that Iraqis will want to invade Iran again...

“President Trump says that the U.S. will pound Iran once again, and that this is “not a warning, but a threat.”

Not a “threat”, but a “PROMISE.”

Iraq has, IIRC, the highest rate of Birth Defects in the World. The Depleted Uranium used in our bombing of our that country caused it. If I was Iraqi, I would want the US out, too.

There are 29 countries that report birth defect rates above 70 per 1000, mostly in Africa and the Middle East. Iraq is only one of those.

Why don’t you take your blame america depleted uranium bull crap and shove it over at D U.

You know that depleted uranium is used only in our Sabot-rounds for our tank guns.

782,414 DU rounds were fired during the 1991 war in Iraq, mostly by US forces.

Data shows that many of the DU rounds were fired in or near populated areas of Iraq, including As Samawah, Nasiriyah and Basrah. At least 1,500 rounds were also aimed at troops, the group says.

This conflicts with legal advice from the US Air Force in 1975 suggesting that DU weapons should only be used against hard targets like tanks and armoured vehicles.
