Just imagine how many deaths have been reported in Iran since the killing of their general..
Over 60 people died from burial stampede,now 180 people have died from plane crash and earthquake just occurred.
No single US life has been lost so far.

US government are working on history by Nostradamus(A man who saw future) he said the downfall of American power will come from Arab country that's why US always kill any Arab high military personnel. Start from Osama Bin Laden( indomie generation please find out about him before you comment and sentiment aside), Sadame Hussein and now Iran General. Nostradamus always comes true which is a gift from Hod to him. US want to be vigilant at all time.


Lolz na real indomie generation.. grin

Other presidents had the option to dispatch Soleimani, but they forewent it because US already had Iran in a good place.

Mr. Impeached could not seat still because new impeachment evidence against him was coming to light by the hour, so he went to do what he predicted in 2011 that Obama would do to get re-elected: declare war on Iran.

Iran is three times bigger than Iraq, and US spent more than a decade warring Iraq. Anyone who says It'll be easy to wipe out Iran must be eating a plate of half-fried akara with a can of Black Bullet.

US sentiments are against war, not like during Bush when 9-11 triggered nationalist fervor that rallied everyone round towards acts of vengeance.

With the deficit and mounting debt, and a fragile economy, no one wants another war that'd cost the US trillions. And since Trump has largely annoyed their traditional allies, you can bet the UK, Canada, France, and Australia will not back him in this misadventure.

US will pay dearly for this folly. Killing a government official OPENLY (Not in a war theatre) and admitting to it, is the most foolish thing that has been done since world warII.

What Trump had effectively done by Killing Soleimani is that he has established that in this war of attrition between nations killing foreign diplomats is a fair game.

I repeat, going after a diplomat and killing him publicly is a no-no and I believe the US will regret this action, and this may hurt trumps chance of reelection. Iran is no pushover!!


Seriously its getting Messer I laugh at some idiots in this forum thinking that America will easily crush Iran when the war starts. In there mumu minds Iran will face USA war machine with stones and sticks grin grin

All military equipments owned by ecery country has its range how far it can go.

do you even know how far the US is from the middle east?

You don't stir up speculations by a just saying 'this ia modern warfare bla bla bla' or this is 21st century, that's crap.

Most of Iran's military hardwares are extremely old and requires an upgrade, they can't and won't bother trying to hit mainland US because it's na effort in futility. Even the rocket would be shot down before it gets close sef.
Don't forget Iran does not need to send missiles to US mainland before killing people in the US. There are many other options suicide bombing, domestic terrorism, cyber attacks and other options are there.

The fight with this IRAQ, where was it fought & how? U will call that a full blown war? What is all this pushover stuff u guys on NL say everyday sef?
I come to your house to beat u up in the presence of ALL your family members and I'm avoiding hitting your parents, siblings and kids in d process, while u are busy trying hard to kill me by all means, you'll call DAT a fight.
Would the US send 2500 soldiers to Russia? I don't think so. I don't pray for the war to escalate beyond this level but wether Sule is dead or no, IRAN is only going to look a lot closer to IRAQ now or worse by the time Trump is done with him. Unless of course Congress meets to reduce or strip him of his powers during war.

Please tell them, when I read most people comments here I just tire , they obviously do not know what Military power is.

How is Iraq US mainland?
By the time US responds, you'll see Iranians on PressTV and Aljazeera crying and shouting human rights.

Iran said Trump didn't have congressional approval before killing their man. I really hope Iran had congressional approval before attacking a US facility with rockets.

Trump would rain bombs on whoever gave them approval and the surviving Iranians would get the memo.

And Iran will fold there arms and attack the US bombs with stones and sticks. You lack sense

The missiles the Iranians fired overnight, how may Americans did it kill? None

The Iranian weapons can cause limited damage compared to the complete annihilation the US is capable of. If you don't know something, you ask questions.

And do you think suicide bombing is that easy in U.S. soil? Man security is tight in U.S. Cyber attacks yes, but suicide bombings? Hell no. U.S. is not Afghanistan.

Most people think once they can "escape Nigeria", their problems have come to an end!
I pray you get that Green card, then you will remember what l just said. undecided

Some got that Green card (say by Visa Lottery) and then they get shot by some White, racist Police in America. grin grin
If they knew, that is how they will end, l bet they would have preferred to be 'enjoying their suffering' in Nigeria. undecided

They fired unguided rockets by there Iran militants proxy's. Iran has not started using it guided rockets, misslesand drones o. Go and read what the Americans fear most about iranian weapons slipping into the hands of there proxies especially the drones. I will advise you to go and watch Iran military capabilities on YouTube and you will know it will not be a easy ride for US

Please explain your NB, how did Putin save us from the WWWIII? If anything, I think he is the backbone of Iran. And I am sure Trump will respond with force. Rockets go dey fly like akara...... lol
Koval12:
I expect Trump to react within the next 24 hours. He had promised to hit Iran so hard and fast should they retaliate. But that will be very foolish of him. Americans have more to lose if this crisis escalates beyond this.

Since there's no casualty, no American life was lost, I expect Trump not to strike back and de escalate this conflict. It's going to do the world a whole lot of good and Americans importantly.

NB: Putin might have just saved us from WWIII

Don't say what you don't know. My last visit to Dubai, i knew who first sent me a welcome message on my new phone line as an American passport holder and i know the content.

And for the rest of what you typed, i don't have strength to highlight the ridiculousness.

But they killed JFK when it suited them? 4get that bro na wash. They day u become woke, u r dead. Research and read. All the "real" terrorists against the US are always guys they have trained and who know exactly the real reasons for some of those wars after fighting for them for a while. U r a bloody civilian. Hell even the US military dont buy that bullshit, at least the top brass. They are not serving the American ppl. They are serving the real owners of America. U my friend r an expendable pun. Like I said b4 , American citizens own nothing except debt. The US government own nothing except the debt ridden citizens.
