I like the way America is standing up to the CCP.
I'm fine with that.

Iran has only been showing their ass since 1978, that's just as far back as I can remember. Maybe longer... I hope they get flattened. I counted something like 6-7 acts of war from Iran since last May.

It's looking like Iran targeted the Iraqi areas of the Al-Asad Airbase, and did not hit the Western areas--to include US, Norwegian, and Australian soldiers. So it looks like Iran did not want to kill any American troops.

I'm beginning to think the expert I talked to, who said this would all blow over, was right.

As I have said before,
I have seen this: "End of the World",
So many times,
It is: "Water off a Skunk's Back".
I'll take it seriously when the actuality hits home,
Not when they are trying to sell: "NewsPapers". :mrgreen:

I gave up listening to interest rate predictions when I had a mortgage many years ago.
If it happens,
It happens.
If it doesn't,
It doesn't.
Time enought to panic later.

Can't argue with that,
Though some may try. :mrgreen:

Perfect response by Iran. No American casualties.

Trump looks good.

I love how Trump referenced the hostage crisis in Iran.

What was our response then for them taking the hostages? Nothing. Weak.

Lets just hope it's brinkmanship and not an escalation
