Twitter Leftists are construing this as “assassinating a head of state (or close underlings)” with all the horrors that follow.

Heads of state do not lead anti-government forces within neighboring states, nor appear at mob assaults on embassies.

Initial reports say the rockets found at the scene were Russian origin. You don’t suppose we have any of those old things just lying around for something like this?

A new level of 3D chess....

Exactly...but hey, we’re dealing with rabid, TDS-suffering communists that just love moslems. They never let the truth get in the way of their insane “agenda”....

Gaijin...

This shadow was has been going on for a while. People have been dying and will continue to die. It's international and not just domestic/political.

We make moves, derps make moves. The Iranian attack on our embassy was a derp move.

This is our counter-move.

Were they our (USA) missiles? Don't know yet, but we can be sure they were OUR missiles. Israeli? Russian? Somebody else?

Only two sides in this conflict. Us and derp.

Look for a distinct lack of sword rattling by Russia, btw. They know what time it is.

This will drive the Shi’ite’s crazy. Any concentration of Americans be they civilian or military in Iraq will be the target of many suicide bombers. These people are crazy and many are willing to die to avenge Soleimani. Soleimani killed many Americans and was a prime target. Yet if his death results in this disastrous American entanglement getting even deeper and more complicated, then he really did die a Muslim martyr. Our involvement there has been a bad mistake. Time to declare victory and come home. Iraq is not worth any more sacrifice of American blood or treasure.

Wow. Those poor guys accidentally drove right underneath a drone strike. Nothing we could do.

This was a good hit. A very, very good hit.
