Trump Backed Down On Retaliation For Iran Missile Strikes On US Base In Iraq by Gertyman(op): 5:47pm On Jan 08, 2020
Trump addressed the nation and backed down not mentioning retaliating Iranian strike. But he promised more sanctions against Iran.

This I think is a good idea.

Any war against the US starts already as an unfair war because all the assets destroyed by both parties will be on your own soil, not even a kiosk on US soil will be touched. The so called Yemenish war that US is reputed to have lost was not fought on US soil. It is simply an unfair war IMO

Iraqi government are ready to fight anyone who want to cause trouble on their soil. Make US and Iran go somewhere go fight.
