FOX reporting POTUS probably will address the nation. That's not good.

Now reporting he does not plan to address the nation. That's a good sign.

The half that thinks it's the wrong thing to do, are the Democrats. I'm not saying that there isn't an argument against it, just pointing out that it's all about politics now...

How about the I's or are they playing politics also?

Gotta start contemplating if this "response" was consented to by the US.

So the US tells Iran you can attack these two bases but don't kill any Americans?

In the age of Trump it has more to do with support of Trump than with party affiliation.

I find this idea very funny, even if the whole situation isn't.

Something to the effect of, Iran reaches out to the US and says we need a victory but don't want this to escalate, if we shoot some rockets and no americans get hurt, will you agree not to retaliate.

The tweets that followed by both Trump and Zarif actually seem pretty telling .

Thought so too. However reports now are saying that there were US forces on the ground, thankfully they had enough time to run for cover because US radars picked up the incoming missile.

What were the iranians thinking?

If only a bunch of US soldiers would CH"V be killed there would've been a major war now...

If you believe that Iran missing US troops was either luck or bad aim then I have a bridge to sell you

The point is that with radicals you never know.

The only conspiracy theory which could work is that the US secretly negotiated with Iran that they will let them attack a US base in order to go on with life and the US took precautions to make sure no lives are at risk and from the US side there is no need to respond militarily since no US lives were harmed and tensions calm down and life goes on.

But if this is not true, then Iran was just very lucky here. I mean even as careful as they try to be they should have thought that there is 1 percent chance that an American WILL somehow be in harms way and that would be the beginning of their end.

Hence my question. What were they thinking....

How did the US missile defense system fail so miserably?
