IRAQI AIR BASE HOUSING US TROOPS COMES UNDER ROCKET FIRE NORTH OF BAGHDAD

Iraqi air base housing US troops comes under rocket fire north of Baghdad


Iraq's Balad Air Base, which hosts a number of US forces and contractors, has been the subject of a rocket attack. At least three unguided projectiles have exploded inside the facility, reportedly causing no casualties.
The base, located some 60km (40 miles) to the north of Baghdad, came under attack late on Saturday, Reuters reported citing security sources. Two unguided rockets hit the premises of the compound, but caused no casualties among the personnel. It was not immediately clear whether they inflicted any material damage.


The incident hit the headlines shortly after two explosions hit the Green Zone – the heavily fortified quarter of the Iraqi capital that houses foreign missions and government buildings. One rocket reportedly hit in the vicinity of the US embassy, reportedly damaging a road.

I thought they would have waited on Iraqi parliament to kick forces out country before conductimg strikes. If they did that the America wouldn't have legitimacy since they're uninvited. Trump is acting foolishly antagonizing Iran. It doesn't serve US interest.

Iraq is the battle ground. If they have sense, they should kick US force out of their country.

The irony is how neither Israel nor USA would ever grant your type a visa.

Indeed when Iran was destroying ships drones sponsoring innocent killings destroying properties and lives you couldn't see then. You'll all have what you called for. Mind you top 12 aircraft and submarine war machines are produced by Nato countries. Please make more noise when you're done, reality will continue to stare you in the face. Iran is a curse and a cancer to the entire world.


The axials are now retitled to " an eye for an eye", but here, every lifting of finger shall be regarded as an invitation for more beating. For the first time since World War 2 our allies in Japan are entering the global field by sending their armies to the Mediterranean so. You're in for it.

It is what it is. All is fair in war. The comment was provocative, inciting, hypocritical as the aggressor is been skewed to appear as the victim which is false reality. Let them escalate it. Even if it gets here we're also ready for the matchdown

some of you still blame Bush for the fake Iraqi war and Obama for the Libya debacle, why now that trump is different,he has given no concrete reason so far on why he did it, or is it about the 2020 reelection? I think he once accused Obama of doing just that

The Iraq war and all the others isn't what has been happening in recent times. Rather than depict ancient issues that are osliative of recent events you can do the needful by painting the scenario has it has played out in the past few months from Syria to fallujah to Saudi Arabia to Yemen Iran has been spreading cancer across the world. Iran needs to be dealt with as the rogue confrontation can't be ignored forever. Notice the silence from Russia, Turkey and China. Iran is a nuisance and needs to be tackled accordingly. Or did the US just woke up and suddenly decided it needed to make a kill and them initiate an unprovoked and warranted attack?

Delusions. Talk what's in front of you. Did US just woke up to stage an unprovoked fight? I'm sure you know the answer to that. If that were the case we know what would have happened in Venezuela Yemen Syria. Simpletons will never be able to see the complexities in issues and agree on what the truth is about. This is about ending a war not starting one

The clown really believes the Iraqi are just mad for no reason. I guess those American airstrikes didnt play a role in anything. There's no proof the general backed that protest either. It is known he was well liked by Iraqi's for combating ISIS.

Ikio:

Your guess is wrong. I didnt claim they would leave. Fact is America wont be dumb enough to engage in full scste war with Iran. They aren't retarded. They just do more strikes and sanctions. Both countries can play that game.

The Iranian say they 35 targets. They also have option to attack northern Saudi oil field. Their nuclear option is closing the Strait of Hormuz. The good thing is neither side really wants a full scale war. Iran would lose but America would suffer lose thousands of troops.

They could invade anytime they please but they haven't because it dumb. For example they wont go to war with north korea because they could wipe out Seoul. I agree Iran are hotheads playing with fire.

Iran air defense has good air defenses. I believe they have russian S300 system. Iran is not a weak state so the USA wont win from the air. The US doesn't have allies in region that bare willing fight Iran. Iraq did it the eights and accomplished nothing. Russia is willing to back Iran just like did Syria. China will probably do the same.

You're comments are getting dumb. The general was killed in iraq not iran. Iran took out us drone last year. Saudi oil fields were also bomb last year. Saudi Arabia cant even win its war in Yemen. I said they would back their ally like they did in Syria. Lol you need history lesson.
