USA strike Iran in their capital and claimed lives, Iran decided to strike their neighbor Iraq.

Applause for Iran, they really powerful grin grin grin




USA struck Iraq and not Iran. Soleimani was in Iraq when he was struck and not Iran. Do you see how ignorant you just made you and your post look?

Dnt be obsessed with American military might. Iran won the game. Iran is the only country to have launched missiles on US bases since world war II, and US couldn't do a thing. Don't have u brain!
Re: At UN, US And Iran Invoke 'self-defense' For Military Confrontation by Befii: 3:34pm On Jan 09, 2020
Many of them have no idea of Iranian military capability. Iran is the only country since world war II that has the gut to launch missile on US bases. That shows that US military is clearly in decline.

UN brokered peace and both parties agreed for ceasefire. there are more human casualties on Lebanon/ Hezbollah side than israel however israel suffered more economically.
no nation is ready for war now. both iran and us are playing game.
Still avoiding the fact that UN,US,Isreal all agreed that Isreal lost the war.Isreal entered southern Lebanon with the intention to clear all Hezbollah position, there were driven out.Hezbollah were able to close the whole of northern Isreal for months,people were sleeping in bunkers.Same Isreal that were bragging that they will never negotiate with a terrorist,were force to negotiate at the end end release the 3000 Lebanese prisoners that they were holding for years.

I never said iraq was very offensive afterall none of their missiles can hit USA but they can hit any and every US base in the middle east. This is why they cannot hit USA on their soil right now

I am sure you were also ignorant of this other glaring fact.

According to Putin, only the United States and Russia have an early warning system.
Not even NATO has it.

China is still trying to build theirs with Russia's help.

Early warning systems must be very sophisticated technology.

It detected a missile being launched in Iran all the way from Mississippi.

You clearly lack knowledge in what commerce entails. You do not make a simple situation worse and discourage the other party and still claim you are in any position of strenght to negotiate anything.

1) trump backed out of the nuclear deal Obama and the UN engaged Iran in

2) He then attacked an irani top official on iraqi soil and also killed 3 iraqi top officials in the same attack as they were also in the vehicles Soleimani was in

3) Iran now enraged tears up the nuclear deal and refuses to abide by it any longer

Lesson you need to learn. USA has lost all leverage they thought they had before because Trump dumped the nuclear deal first and backed off without consulting the UN or even Iran. Iran is now the one who has leverage because they never broke the deal and stayed faithful which all other UN nations have confirmed.

UN and America have now effectively given Iran leverage no thanks to Trump
Us maintained that Iran won't produce nuclear weapon. This time nobody is going to pay them.

Yes, my fellow Yoloba moozlem.
After killing Iranian general like a stray rat, they could only attack an empty building after begging the American occupants to evacuate and waited for hours to make sure no one is in the facility.

Check it bro, from your comments are we Yoloba moozlems not inheritably stupid?
And who told you it was an empty building that was attacked, you still fall for the tricks of Trump.
So many things you don't understand about US.

Stop hiding under the umbrella of ignorance. Did u think US military base in other countries comprise of only USA military personnels.

U are just avoiding the truth. Attacking another country just because USA attack you is a very callous act which reduces any country reputation.

If their missile cannot reach US soil that's their problem. Both parties better start targeting each other an leave poor neighbours alone especially Iran who is lunching dozens of missiles into neighbouring country.

This fight is already finished nau. Its Trump vs Iran vs Democrats 2:0 in favour of the Potus!
Well, I knew that Iran would make mouth to protect it's ego and then stage a downplayed/watered retaliatory attack.
I bet you that no country wants to go to war with the United States, not even Russia (And if not Russia then it can never be anyone else) As for China, China would rather keep doing its bussiness than participate in any war at all. In any war involving the United States, China will always be in the middle because it needs the United States to grow its economy more than the whole of the rest of the world, the same way Iran needs the US to grow it's economy.
I lost sympathy for the Iranians when I heard that the Obama administration gave Iran 150 Billion dollar! earlier ceased and an additional 1.8 billion dollars in cash as part of the peace deal initiated by the United States. Guess what, instead of Iran to judiciously use this money to grow its economy and provide livelihood for it's people, they went and use the money to buy armouries and weapons of mass destruction when their citizens are hungry! This singular act makes it clear that Iran values conflicts more than human lifes and livelihood.
Did we hear trump mentioned in his speech that Iranians chanted death to America the same day they recieved billions of dollars from America? I think that if they were not going to say thank you America, then they should have rejected the fund in all humility. In my own opinion, America did try it's best to be diplomatic before unleashing its capability on Iran. I don't know why the world's diplomatic minds are trying to hit hard on Trump for sending a strong message to the people who have refused to accept an hand of friendship and would not stop launching offensive attacks on America and Americans. Dude is only doing his job fearlessly unlike an Obama.
Let's be frank, Iran do not understand negotiations and diplomacy, the language they understood of course is WAR! My prayer is that may any country such as Iran never become the world power, otherwise the whole world will be soaked in blood.
nonsense

They know what Iran is capable of and the surprises up their sleeves. A country that deceived the whole world some years back about stopping their nuclear program. A nuclear program they started in the 1950s and you think they would just abandon it thats if they've not developed weapons of mass destruction yet. I only pity two countries if this situation should escalate. Iraq whose soil will no doubt be turned into the battle ground and that tiny, weak and cry baby country called Israel that relies so much on military support from the us , Europe and all her other allies.

You must realise that war is 'no film show' oga. If a country killed your number two citizen and all you can do it to fire missiles to empty military bases as a "slap" you don't expect Donald to continue killing them . That tenant in White House is seriously looking for someone he will use as his presidential campaign point and It won't be wise for Iran to make further attempt to provoke him fa.

Obama did not pay Iran, he returned the Iranian money that was seized.

I think Trump achieved his aims, US only suffered minimal damages to bases, but they took out a strategic foe...this does not stop US from targeting more Iranian officials and proxies, I think it makes sense to talk, since escalation will destroy Iraq that America has been trying to guard from terrorists.

War is expensive and hard to stop, it's madness to engage in war for fun or just for ego, most wars are fought out of necessity. Millions will die and lots of resources will be lost. Think.

Clown

Early warning systems are different from surface to air missile defense systems.
Early warning systems are not missiles. They are alarms.

And EWS can work thousands of miles from where the missile is being fired unlike defense systems that wait for the missile to get in range.
It was developed for nuclear protection for US and Russia.

It is no child's play.

Iran just trying to cover their shame sent missiles to an empty base.
