Oh buddy, me too.

“US DEFENSE OFFICIAL: IT’S A MASS ATTACK. ALL OUR BASES ARE GETTING HIT BY CRUISE MISSILES AND SHORT RANGE BALLISTIC MISSILES. NOT JUST AIN AL ASSAD. ALL ACROSS IRAQ.”

Try harder.

Under PDJT, the strategy will be unexpected,

And likely highly effective.

Yeah, lots of people claiming that Fars is announcing it, but the links are bad (or the official Twitter account has been removed).

He’s usually pretty credible, but I’m waiting until I hear official reports from POTUS.
