My sympathies to the liberals here who are upset that no American service members have been reported killed.

Big difference from firing at and hitting a base - no reports of damage. The videos seem to show intercepts of missiles. The launchers will probably be dust by morning.

There are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of posts by liberals on this forum since Suleimani was taken out that prove my point.

For the love of god republicans, can we just go one GOP presidency without. starting. a war? How many trillions of dollars have we wasted in the ME quagmire, with foray after foray into the ME under GOP presidents? It's hilarious how republicans get outraged that some child or a citizen could get healthcare under a government backed plan, yet they have no problems flushing away massive sums of cash down the toilet on never ending escapades in the ME.



Trump ran on a platform of getting the US the hell out of conflict in the ME. What happened?



And hopefully cooler heads will be loud enough to control Trump's impulsiveness, because for now it sounds like Iran is just trying to save face and that there are zero or low casualties. I'd expect Iran to launch rockets with small overall impact, blow up some oil pipelines/tankers, and to shoot down some drones etc., because there's no way the regime would risk doing something that'd cause the US to launch a full-scale invasion. The regime cares about self preservation first and foremost.



Of course that changes if Iran gets a nuclear weapon though...
