    Yeah, and Trump said if Iran launched attacked US military bases then he will target 52 Iranian sites.

    One side or the other is probably talking shit. Or neither is bluffing, and shit is about to get real.

    Should he Tweet at Iran and ask them to hang on for a minute so he can go give a press conference?
    It's Trump. I wouldn't put it past him

    No, he shouldn't. But he might, it's Trump after all.

    And he had scheduled a press call already so there's that.

    There was always going to be a response to Trumps escalation, but if this is all they're planning it's at least good they're not escalating further.

    Still super shit though, lets just hope the orange moron doesn't do anything stupid in return

    Trump has already back-peddled on the 52 sites threat after it was pointed out to him he was threatening a war crime (and pointed out by all the US allies that made it clear the US would be standing alone on that action).

    Too bad for Iran attacking the US ambassy.
    If there's A war, it's on them not the US

    An embassy attack in which no one died.

    So tell me, when are you planning to enlist?

    I'm not prepared to murder someone for vandalizing my lawn, no.

    Again: when are you planning to enlist?

    US Embassies are not on sovereign US soil. They remain on the soil of the home-nation in which they reside.

    The political turmoil we're undergoing in regards to Brexit would be a good excuse to use, I suppose. Either way, the UK's nukes are in Scotland - on the western coast. I'm on the eastern coast though I don't know how much of a difference that'd make if the worst came to be and we were hit by missiles. >_>

    They didn't attack the US embassy. Iraqis protested outside of the embassy and trashed the gatehouse that was manned by Iraqis(who let the protestors in). The embassy itself was never attacked.

    Yeah man, don't you know it's a perfectly valid response to kill someone's brother after they stand on the sidewalk in front of your house shouting and waving their fist?

    You're forgetting that the riot at the embassy was in response to a US attack on an Iraqi military base which killed a number of personnel.

    It's a bit more than that, since they did really trash the gatehouse.

    But it's not the attack or "sacking" that people like Skroe says it was.

    It's worth remembering that so far in this clusterfuck the only non-Iraqi deaths have been one American private military contractor and one Iranian general. Everybody else who has died in this tit for tat Trump tantrum has been Iraqi.

    Vladimir Putin is in Syria visiting Assad n celebrating Orthodox Christmas, will soon go to Turkey to launch Turkstream pipeline, which the US is opposed to n could launch sanctions against Turkey for, this at a time when Turkey is strategically located near Iran is bad timing for US forces if things escalate further (I don't see any de-escalation for a while...)
