My son is stationed there. The wrath of a wounded dying god, will be bestowed upon the earth if he or his fellow soldiers are hurt....


Amen

Thoughts go out to you. Rather than “here we go!” as above.

What time is it right now in Iraq? It would be just like the Iranian azzholes to strike troops when they're sleeping.

Trumps been talking pretty tough the last couple days so I’m sure he’s not going to back down.

Hope Assad’s got a nice bunker, but my guess is his people will be pulling him out of a dirty foxhole for a violent and unceremonious end in not to long.

From what I'm hearing, it is indeed in the middle of the night.

Maybe this is bigger than those "rocket attack" skirmishes.

There have been 3 of those every week in Iraq, for many months.


Yeah but this time Iran is claiming responsibiilty

Iran's leaders must die. Period. They've been killing innocents all over the world for decades. Same old Satan-possessed radicals.

Should they have sent a letter or called them on the phone first?

You think the US doesn't do the same. It's a surprise attack in the middle of the night for a reason.

Pretty brazen. This could just be the start of multiple attacks. I certainly hope not, but given that Iran has directly retaliated and taken responsibility.... It's not the usual asymmetric, proxy-style attack. Thoughts and prayers for the men/women at that airbase and all over the region.
