Not enough information yet, but that’s my thinking too, that it is intended by the Iranians to be symbolic. They want to be able to show the masses that they are retaliating for the Soleimani hit, but in a way that doesn’t provoke too much of a response from us. Trump can be unpredictable though, and it’s a really bad idea to test him. The Ayatollah must be feeling an incredible amount of pressure to do something, because he has to know that this could turn out really badly for him.

They were saying Sponge Bob was our hero. Are they not expecting a real hefty response?

One of my sources connected to the military says 30+ dead.

I think it is too early for such a detailed casualty report

Damned if they do and damned if they don’t. We should use this as a pretext to after their nuclear facilities.
