Iran just blinked. They sent 20+ missiles at two targets and didn’t injure or kill a soul. They know damn well that the early warning systems would allow the targets to take precautions and even intercept many of the missiles. Just to be safe, they seem to have launched some of them at the sand some distance away from their targets. Reportedly some of the missiles were “duds.”
Iran’s foreign minister, Hassan Bin Sobir (I forget his name at the moment and have watched too much 3 Stooges over the years), stated that the missile strike was the retaliation for the killing of Soleimani. Iran is telling it’s people they killed some number of Americans, I believe the number they’re using is 80. They are claiming they have their revenge. Looks like they’re backing down. However, there are still factions that may operate independently of the state and are likely planning terror activities of their own. We’ll see.

Man, I don’t know if the Irian suicide squad is going to bomb Trump hotel in Dubia or a McDonalds.

I hope they understand what national treasures Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnel are.

The President just had the broad side of a barn built in Iraq and dared Iran to try to hit it.

Stay indoors. Close the drapes. Remain nervous.

Supreme Leader: “Oh, I see. Well, in that case, carry on. Now, as I saying…”

The US President and the Supreme Leader of Iran both have conservative bases they need to appease.
