...

If america said they have no casualty better believe it.that country dont joke with the life of their citizen especially their soldiers.if any dies,they would have mentioned it.that attacks took place many hours ago.
and you think the Iranians would be so stupid to lunch missiles to an empty US military base?

They may even be top US military officers in that base but the US would never disclose it, up till now they are still making acessment and people like you still believe it?

Soleimani is no different from Obama, Bush, Hillary, Theresa May etc. Has Obama been assassinated because US interference led to chaos especially terrosim in other countries?

Should criminality be excused based on complexion or citizenship?

beejay18:




Your own views bah?
Have ever make comprehensive search on why Soleimani was killed?

Does it occur to you that this terrorist has been on so many countries watch list?

Do you know the thousands of innocent life that this Soleimani has sent to early grave?

Pls do more research on why Soleimani was killed.

We can not lament over a terrorist been killed said by MORRIS. You think he doesn't know what he's saying bah?

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
All American allies are pissed with Trump because he didn't notify them before attacking Soleimani, China are now tactically backing Russian, and Russia is Iran's biggest ally.

It's a win win for Iran IMO
it's a big loss for Iran if there should be a war. Europe is not exactly happy with Trump in the decision but I assure u Europe will go to war with America should Russia and China step in . Watching CGTN yesterday and the discussion between correspondents from Iran, US, Europe and China. The Iran guy was trying to say Europe is not doing enough in terms of talking to Trump and criticising Europe for being US lapdog. Now I quote the response of the European,he said " if you think driving a wedge between Europe and US will get u a deal then you're not going anywhere". So that's to show u they have their own internal issues but when it comes to facing other's Europe and America have each other's backs. Remember Saudi,isreal and other us allies are around the corner

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.
Rubbish,!
Stop thinking like this,sir!
Let's call a spade a spade!

US claimed. A country that has been known into invent lies to start wars based on false claims.

US also claimed Iran breached its agreement....contrary to EU and UN reports

They also claimed Iraq had a weapon of mass destruction.....we know how that turned out. We got ISIS from Iraq and Afghanistan thanks to US and co arming militias.

They have also been trying hard to destabilise China and Hong Kong.

US and the West have done more harm to our progress than Iran and Russia. But no, they are the bad guys. Does it have something to do with the superiority of skin colour or are you just suffering from Stockholm Syndrome?
klax:


Pls which problem Pls why are you people so myopic in reasoning? Why do you people love one sided judgement?

Where were you when this same Iran fire rocket first to killed US millitary contractor.

Now US retaliated and choked off Soleimani or whatever and you are all crying.

Pls why did Iran first fire rocket and killed the American without provocation pls answer me

Now Iran had rain down over 19 rockets on Iraq soil targeting the US THIS MORNING by the time US rain theirs back thunder will kill anyone that complain.

The Iranian attacks were just a face saving act... I don't expect US or Trump to retaliate... Back channel diplomacy.
More meaningful revenge will come much more later through the usual proxies used by the Iranians in which case they'll deny as usual, but the US will still be aware of this possibility and as expected, are putting measures in place to check it.

Though I'll prefer swift response from Trump and counter force from Iran... The world is too boring lately.. they should spice it up a bit.. undecided
na so my man,Iran just dey beat around d bush

Nigerians you can talk anyhow, just start praying for Iran because if there are casualties there must be consequences. Iran is no match for the US. I am currently watching the developments on Aljazeera. Please do stay glue on your TV.
I'm tired o. They won't sit down and watch CNN, aljeezera, BBC, skynews or CGTN. They'll be coming here to give wack analysis. I'm happy there are mature men like us on this platform. I Sha hope when the war starts Iran will not be crying to UN and human rights organization cus yes Americans will die, more the number of Iranians will die.. atleast 3 times more

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.

You never made any point but sing nursery school rhymes

Wars are not fought by size of territory... Isreal which smaller than some Nigerian states can slap Africa anytime and anyway it likes

War is wrong... But Iran is a freaking third world nation. Go and sit down

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!!

You are having hope with missiles strikes but your eye go clear when both sides fully kick off.. I assure you that one.. Your Iran will be be crippled

Iran must respond proportionately and trump will allow the response. It is part of diplomacy... I'm sure nobody will be killed in the base since they will get advance notice and probably move to the shelter. In the end no American soldiers will be killed in the strike, Just damage some facilities and then everybody moves on.
Iran has been stressing that they don't want war but proportionate response . The purpose is purely to massage pride and Ego datsalll

Iran first killed a US military contractor. Why do you always leave out that side of the story?
Re: US Airbase In Iraq Hit By Rockets by Kylekent59: 10:19am On Jan 08, 2020
Hope you all know US has a radar that can detect a missile when directed to their air craft and send it back to the sender or even captures it.



Hope Iran won't cry that the missiles are fake grin



The US are very confident, they know everything, they even have satellite that they use to get information from every part of the earth.




When it comes to first hand information, US gat it.

When it comes to experience, US gat it.

When it comes to techniques and war, US gat it.
