Was an absolute stick on this clown would try and lever a conflict with Iran when the chips are down.
No tears for the arsehole who got hit here, but that doesn't detract from the fact that this was an incredibly reckless thing to do. Iran will certainly retaliate.
Iraq is a complete xxxx mess, america has got the oil but the place is a hotbed for radical islam and worldwide terrorism.
Trump's desperation at home is making him even more of a liability.

I still think Iran will play "cute" re this issue and carry out proxy attacks against a consistently antagonistic enemy ever since Obama's policy of diplomacy was reversed by Trump. I reckon Iran will also try to "take out" a top US military official at some point - patience is a virtue and timing is crucial to do it properly. Also remember that Iran's main allies are the "top players", namely China and Russia. I recall that the US wiped out a group of Russian military personnel in N Syria not so long ago (plus disgracefully "threw the Kurds under a bus" to favour another RW loon ball named Erdogan!!) and I'd imagine Putin and co wouldn't be averse to accommodate an element of "payback" to a President who clearly "didn't want to get involved in the Middle East turmoil any more" (quote) but suddenly changed tact for obvious reasons - the hypocrisy is breathtaking but one must take into account the mental state that is self-evident in Trump's irrational behaviour and demeanour!! Another nutty "big mouth" with a massive ego prob!! Political historians will not be kind to this moron of a US President together with his sycophantic, obliging administrations that keep changing as fast as the weather lol!!

Here is a quote by Trump in 2011 re Obama: Obama will start a WAR with IRAN to get re-elected! Mark my words! VERY BAD! Barrack Obama didn't need to start a war anyway and was duly re-elected as US President!!!!! Obama is a "jewel in the crown" compared with this dangerous lunatic who is clearly not a normal person with no respect for anyone bar himself!! Quote by Trump's spokesperson, Pompeou, last night - "This action is part of a strategic plan to establish peace in the Middle East"??????????? These US govt people and Trump are so impudent and shameless, the sooner they are removed from the White House, the better!! Then establish another Presidential administration that is a proper, accountable one that needs to "build bridges" (not walls!!!) and start following far more pragmatic, diplomatic policies than what we have been observing for such a long time from a US President who is clearly "out of his depth" and is a criminal, a gangster who is abusing his power, hence the impeachment!!!

Johnson will have to (at best) tacitly endorse the orange shitgibbon, or (at worse) drag us into a war with Iran. The latter is what I have feared for a while now.
Why ? Because Brexit has boxed the moron bojo in and turned us into a lapdog for another populist fascist.

I personally don't think there will be a war v Iran mainly because Trump does not wanna go that far plus he is in an election year in which I really fear he is bizarrely gonna see a second term unless the Dems "get their finger out" re their choice of candidate - it does not look good - lotsa old white men with money vying to be a US President, no "shining beacon", I despair!! But he'd like an attack of some sort that suits his politics and his "tough response" would, in his eyes and those of his cohorts, reel in the "stoopId vote" again AAAARRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!

As 0762 mentions in a previous post, Trump is a bully. He looks like one, talks like one and acts like one, therefore there is a good chance he is one. It's his "modus operandi".
Cabbage is still good for you

Iran launch rocket attacks on US bases in Iraq.
Iran’s Tasnim news agency is now quoting Iranian officials warning that if the US retaliates against these strikes in Iraq, Hezbollah will fire rockets at Israel — a threat to widen the conflict and bring Iran’s regional allies into play.
