So much for the "experts" who said nothing would happen. Question now is what the U.S. is gonna do...
[PUBLISH.TWITTER] I think this was the 737 that crashed due to "technical difficulties," the difficulty being an SA-6 or maybe an antique Hawk up the tailpipe. Adding insult to injury?






9:00 EST Per CNN, Fredo Cuomo, missile fired at Irbil was a dud.






As of 8:35, FoxNews sez no US casualties reported, there are Iraqi casualties. Militia activity in Baghdad is down to nothing at the moment.


Everybody else will do the same.



Having lots of missiles does you no good if they're shitty missiles. USA hasn't responded yet.












ROI=zero.



Time to call in the Pope, I guess. With the Highatollah running their military operations we're lost.

More pinpoint than missiles. However, we have an air force, too...



Iran opens hostilities with Kurdistan.



They've got a love affair with missiles. I'm guessing, based on use in Yemen, they're not going to be (ultimate) cost effective.

That could mean war with everyone in the vicinity, which I suppose is a good thing if you're expecting the Mahdi to come riding to the rescue. If he doesn't come, that thing in your hand is for peeing, not defense.
