    I and all the real patriotic Americans applaud our military and the Commander in Chief for taking out the world's biggest terrorist. :applause:

    Should have been done on Obama's watch, but he was too busy wearing a tan suit :D

    Look around you, my friend. Look at Trump's rallies, then look at Democratic wannabes rallies.

    MAGA! :applause:

    Sorry to upset you with yet another MAGA :D

    Since you are applauding the deaths of 176 innocent civilians caused by your Moron-in-Chief with an irrelevant distraction why don't you tell us all WHO WORE IT BETTER?

    If the Iranians are acting like adults, that is better than what they usually do. Another win for Trump.

    Iran can join the west in prosperity any time it chooses. But since they’re still living in the dark ages upstairs what can we do? Bribing murdererous thugs forever isn’t a strategy. Why change when you can keep getting free money every time you throw a tantrum?

    Iran - I am far from an expert. But some things seem strange in the recent happenings.
    1. Iran had scores of protesters in the streets wanting to topple the government. Now the country is united against the great satin. Is that a "short term mission accomplished" for the Iranian government?
    2. Iran demonstrated the pinpoint accuracy of their missiles. Was that the goal?
    3. The story behind the shooting down of an aircraft headed for Ukraine is a mystery. Was it deliberate?
    4. What possible advantage is it to Iran sponsoring terrorist groups? What's the return?
    5. Iranians are smart, well educated Persians. Why do they persist in doing dumb things that work against themselves?
    6. Flipping reality on its head, what could happen if the U.S. Iran became friends or even allies in the region? Are we backing the wrong people again?

    In short it wasn't even an attack. It was a waste of missile thrown on some desert. It's crystal clear that it's some staged attack.

    Make sure you repeat that enough to yourself. You can see the before-after satellite images of the damage done by the strikes, as well as a video showing the missile explosions posted by Military Times in the article I cite below.

    The report by the Military Times below has a video showing the missiles and their impact.

    I've been thinking about it for some time . The only reasonble answer is that iran is getting exploited.
    Back to the 1978 iranian revolution what happend at that time was that Shah was practically exploiting the west by his power due to the oil and Iran's high national growth at that time. So what did the west do? They ambushed Shah their own ally and pushed back Iran to religious superstitions and made Iran consumer again and not producer. So presence of ayatollahs in Iran is in the best interest of USA because unlike Shah, they can't process Iran's oil and have to sell it and buy other things by it's income from the west and their spurious animosity toward Israel is making the jews more powerful and seem more oppressed in the region. Until a month ago that Iranian people was pushing their government unbelievably hard and suddenly US's interest endangered due to endangering ayatollahs. And they did the one thing that all Iranians having whatever mainstream they want hate the most and that's the threat to their nationalism which they are so proud of. Why do you think that trump is threatening to take out Iran's cultural sites? Because US wants to gather Iranians around their flag because US wants to rescue Iran's government from Iran's people. And the fact is that Khamenei traded Soleimani's life for that end.

    Ok about the casulties you're implying , it's about 5 or 6 buildings some cement blowing for IRGC such an achievement 1 million doller damage.
    And the second one some dark video of rocketing. so what we know they shot them no one is denying .

    I say if you really want to attack if you really want to damage your enemy . You won't ever give them a heads up .

    "Yeah americans be aware I'm gonna attack but I don't want to kill you and don't want to damage you . So heads up and pack your bags. I just want it for some propaganda . WATCH ME WORLD DIDN'T I SAY I WILL DO IT?"

    I think Iran was doing fine, until this "own goal" with the shooting of the Ukrainian airliner. What Iran wanted to do, it did. Killing US soldiers in that base wasn't the point. The point was to call Trump's bluff and Iran did so clearly. The other part was to do something quickly. With the more long term plan, to work on evicting the US from the region as the 'real retribution' for the assassination of General Soleimani.

    In the meantime, Iran of course could have taken specific, eye-for-an-eye revenge down the line when some high ranking US official involved in the decision to take out General Soleimani was touring the region.

    Anyway, right now, the focus has shifted to things Iran doesn't want to be the focus, namely the Ukrainian flight being shot down by Iran's air defenses. Hence, what was developing as a major loss for the US as a result of General Soleimani's assassination, has now become something that shows plus and minuses on both sides ledger card.

    No they didn't. They didn't call Trump's bluff at all. All they did was just a maneuver while americans was eating popcorn watching it . It was so harmless and safe that americans didn't have to use any anti rockets didn't have to take care of any missile base site . Figuratively it wasn't an attack at all.

    That is nonsense. Trump had threatened retaliation if Iran attacked any US assets. Iran did just that, causing major damage to a base Trump had only recently said the Iraqis need to pay for if they want the US to leave.

    In other words, in the mother of all wars with United States, Iran will, or at least may prevail?

    My great friend, you are talking with your head in the cloud. :angel:

    If the US had indeed "employed electronic countermeasures (jamming) of Iranian air defenses" as claimed by you, why couldn't it prevent 16 missiles from hitting at US air bases in Iraq? :xd:
