What he talking tuff



Yea I can see how folks around the world would view it like this....

I feel they didn’t want to kill any folks from iraq...but hey I’m just forming opinions from a lengthy distance

I feel like all they did was embolden Trump.

and Historically a Iraqis and Iranians hate each other they had a war in the 80’s were 500k died. I know it’s Sunni Shia thing now but people forget these two countries have hated each other for awhile

So what is the Iranian plan?........the are clearly avoiding conflict with the us.....they gave the Iraqi government a heads up....you know the Iraqi forces told the us gov...thus no casualties.....are they going for a nuke ?
They basically wasted money for a fireworks show, 2-3 days from people not working, and paying for a funeral. So now it's just business as usual as if nothing happened. I don't think anyone knows if they'll actually do something to retaliate. They're probably scared of a stronger retaliation by Trump.

I'm praying to Allah who came to us in the person of one Master Fard Muhammad, that the Iranians forgive the Donald Trump and let all this mess go. Forgiveness is the key that will help us ALL! :smh:

Not Asia , maybe Japan. The Japanese raped and slaughtered a million Chinese and a million Koreans. Both those countries hate Japan to this day for what they did during WW2. South east Asia too was wrecked by the Japanese. The Japanese are hated in Asia for the most part.

But... But... But... Can't they forgive too? :smh:

Didn't the Japanese forgive the American white devil for Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

This shit went from :eek: "world war 3 Oh shit!!!' to :hmm: . Launching rockets just because. Smoke avoidance 101.

I don't think any talking heads on either side were prepared for this. Haven't even checked to see how each side is spinning all this shit. Probably pure comedy as usual.

It is checkmate.

1. They drained the U.S. down in Iraq, spending 9 trillion dollars. It is like sanctions.

2. A democratically elected government openly repudiated the U.S. presence. The Arab spring was to further establish that a military is not needed to create a democratic government. After a certain time period, terrorist can attack the U.S., they would be freedom fighters.

3. Once the U.S. metabolizes its muscle/shale it will be importing like crazy again. The U.S. claims of spreading democracy and other lies will not work.

man I do believed they operated with caution by informing the Iraqi leaders, who informed the Americans.
Iran could use this as a tool talking point with the next president, same as Lil Kim and Souf Korea

Iran never wanted conflict. It has nothing to gain in a war where it would suffer devastation. What it showed was a lot of courage. Iran fired 16 missiles at 2 US military bases, destroyed buildings and planes, and the US did nothing. Think about this for a moment. The US can say what it wants, but had those missiles landed on top of US troops, those Americans would have died. To say that Iran tried to avoid killing US soldiers is bullshit. When you fire missiles at someone, you are trying to kill. It is that simple. If this was a joke, I wonder what would happen were Mexico, or Kenya, to fire missiles into a US installation, never mind a military base. Trump clearly was dreadful of an Iranian response and literally begged for Iran not to do it. He threatened to attack cultural sites and the family members of the Iranian leadership if the Iranians retaliated at against US citizens or property, and the Iranians did both, except that the US apparently moved its soldiers out of harm's way, after being warned by the Iraqi government, which was warned by the Iranians. Trump can spin this anyway he wants, but in the end he showed his aversity towards war, as I predicted, and hoped- and that was a good thing.
