Iran Retaliates - Hits US Air Bases in Iraq with More Than a Dozen Ballistic Missiles

His name... Jason Bourne.

 

It was probably good that they got this wrong giving trump an out to deescalate.

But still, how did they get this so wrong? From nil, nobody was hurt to 50 TBI.

 

Ehhhh...no big deal, they just have headaches

Beats being dead.

 

Thirty years ago the response would have been, "50 guys concussed? Rub a little dirt on it and get back in the game."

Trump has already leaned hard into the idea that preventing TBI "ruins" the NFL, so I guess he is consistent in his ignorance.

 

There seems to be a pattern here.

 

If this were playing out on the other side of the isle, everybody would be screaming "Benghazi!!!!" and demanding all the emails about the cover up.

Well, it's clear now Trump backed down. We got hit hard, with no response.

Trump put his tail between his legs and told the Pentagon to lie about how hard we got hit, so he wouldn't look like the wimp he is.

 

Hey it was just a few headaches.

 

Yes, and they would be falling all over themselves to show sympathy and support for the injured soldiers.

In this case, however, I'm glad Trump pussed out and didn't respond. He would only make matters worse!

 

Trump doesn't care about anyone but Trump.

But the majority of republican senators will not support... keeping trump's power to "rush into or blunder into another war" intact...

Senate to rein in Trump's war powers after Iran strike

I don't think it's some cover-up. If they did a count after the strikes and everyone is intact the quick no casualty line is logical. Brain injuries start showing up and the Pentagon reports them.

Trump has typically said retaliation happens if American lives are lost.

 

Ok you go with that.

 

Thanks for your permission cage superman

 

So we blew up one of their leaders, if they really wanted to retalitate they would go after Trump, and not our military.

The bipartisan senate bill passed 55-45... trump will veto, and there are enough senate republicans who have abdicated their constitutional responsibilities to trump there won't be a senate override. But at least majority of the senate took a stance...
