    I hope you are an American. You dont deserve it.

    Several things are preventable. Condoms prevent a lot of accidents.

    I'm sure you've read or heard Russia's statement of sympathy and support for Iran. Untranslated.

    There is a massive opportunity to drive us out of Iraq and Syria and take over the security role we've been playing. Russia has already demonstrated a willingness to do so in Syria.

    No doubt. They have been issuing a lot of threats about what they'll do if the US responds, too. You can tell they're nervous.

    U.S. playing escalating war games with Iran with no clear strategy & all for what? Remember when people said Hillary was a war hawk? Those were fun times.

    whichever one doesn’t keep his head on a swivel and gets complacent. That’s usually how it goes.

    Trump will not deliver address tonight, White House official says
    From CNN's Jim Acosta

    President Trump will not deliver an address Tuesday night following a missile attack on two Iraqi bases that house US troops, a White House official said.

    Aides had been making preparations for a possible address to the nation after Iran fired missiles at US forces in Iraq.

    But an official now says Trump won't appear before cameras tonight.​

    Guess he couldn't be bothered.

    You guys can’t make up your minds. You wanted war with Syria, you wanted war with Libya, but not Iran. Hmmmm, makes me think it might just be because it is Trump in charge. If Trump had not taken out the General Libs would have screamed that he missed a perfect opportunity to take him out.
