    Not true they got a single hit on a boat using a cruise missile not a silkworm anti ship missle killed 4 sailors but the boat got back to port and was repaired and is still in service ,

    So they fired a big rocket at a relatively small boat and didn't even sink it ,

    That's winning !

    A bit like Syrians shooting down a russian plane with a russian Missile is that a win for Syrians ?

    Don't bother replying to me, I am not interested in your drivel.

    Just ask Ukraine about neighbours ..



    5000 us troops in Iraq
    But some how they have occupied and hold the whole of Iraq or some where someone is not telling the truth

    Certainly more than 5k in the next few weeks. 12 to 13k in Afghanistan. How many military bases in the middle east? Easily 50+.

    Why dont the Ameicans just go home and protect there borders, they have zero threat on home soil from Iran or any other middle east country bar of course the Saudis (been there done that).

    Instead of spending trillions on new toys for the military why dont they pump a fraction of that sort of money into some of there crumbling poverty stricken cities back home. Leave the brown people alone to rule themselves in whatever way they want to.

    This is the real thing, missiles have hit US bases.

    Ain Al Assad base in Iraq Iranians have hit it with ballistic missiles according to reports.

    30 missiles so far damn!

    Twitter wrong i be shocked so many tweets?

    If that's the case, I fear Iran has been too quick to take the bait, this is exactly what some in Washington wanted to happen.

    I guess it's a Hezbollah attack ??

    It's an Iraq military base that hosts some coalition forces 6 rockes and apparently indirect fire ,

    Likely they will do more damage to Iraqi homes than anything military

    What's with 6 , the other day 6 mortars or rockets
    ,6 rockets today

    I don't think so, they are going to be attacked anyhow.

    Their choices are sit and take it or fight back.

    Why do you insist on repeating this idiotic line? Does it make you feel tough? Do you think it's funny (hint. It isnt)? You have literally slammed the thread multiple times with it, are you expecting (hoping for) a more adverse reaction to it?

    Probably heard it in some US military film... Probably practices saying it in front of the mirror too... Pew pew

    It's true isn't it ,

    You gleefully boasted about a ship getting taken out ,the facts say something completely different .

    Do you not like the actual facts or hoping for a few thanks for look what Iranian missiles did or in this case didn't do

    The US base was hit just not sure it was struck by missiles or rockets. Hearing up to 30 and low as 6. It still ongoing hearing different places too?

    I get what you're saying.

    I just hoped that the US could be shamed into not escalating further.

    Thing is, if it happened an hour or so ago, it hasn't even registered anywhere offical as news (twitter isn't news). Yesterday they wiped out some civilian apartments, today they ran over themselves.

    Maybe some chamomile tea and a calm sit down would be the best idea.

    Oddly enough not a mention from sky to RT


    Must be a very limited incident if it's not breaking news all over

    Would that by any chance be the same Masih Alinejad that Pompeo met back in February to express his thanks too?
