    The funny thing is that I don't believe we have heard on peep out of anybody in Syria about this bombing in Damascus. It seems to me like the SYRIANS would/should be the ones raising the most hell about it if anybody would...(?)

    Oh, its just Trump being goofy. LOL.

    He didn't want to visit the Normandy cemetery where hundreds of Americans are buried. He said “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.” and then he referred to 1800 Marines who dies at Bellau Woods as "suckers". And he mocked McCain for being captured etc. His opinion of the Military is well known, - he has nothing but contempt for them.

    These were intercepted and the debris fell to Earth.

    Trump's older sister, Judge Maryanne Trump Barry chimed in on the cruel, lying, cheater who was sitting in the Oval Office.
    "SAT" Test.
    OMG!

    Yep. Planning military operations in order to attack an enemy turns an embassy into a legitimate target. Same with hospitals.

    Unlike you, most people can easily tell the difference between a missile streaming and hitting a target as opposed to falling debris!


    The Washington Post mapped 4 locations were missiles had impacted including 2 air bases (Nevatim and an unidentified base which the head of the IRGC identified as the Ramon air base). But instead of going back and forth amid heavy propaganda by those who are quite expert at it, you can continue with your propaganda and spin. It doesn't change a thing as far as those in Israel who were supposed to receive Iran's message.

    Of course you should, you should also colonize Africa while throwing a paper bag of poop at Vladimir Putin's front door.

    The first thing that occurred to me in this latest Iranian drone attack on Israel was, who is this costing the most.

    Bet those Israelis are going crazy right now after losing plenty of shekels.

    Ingenious strategy from Iran. Hit the Jewish government in Israel where it hurts them most, their tin of shekels. Nothing hurts them more, not even dead hostages. You can just imagine their finance department now, on the hotline to the American taxpayer.

    If one assumes the most expensive anti-missile round available for intercept was used to shoot down all 400 incoming platforms one would arrive at a total expense of $1.35B. This was not the case by any stretch. Having worked on the development of these systems I am quite familiar with their use. Most were taken out at far lower expense. Likely near a couple thousand dollars a piece.

    The cost of Israel’s interception of Iran’s missile and drone barrage on Saturday was estimated at 2.1 billion Israeli shekels, or more than $550 million. The estimate--by Yehoshua Kalisky, a senior researcher at the Institute for National Security Studies, a think tank in Tel Aviv--takes into account expenses associated with intercepting half of the Iranian missiles and drones, including the use of the David’s Sling air-defense system, and also takes into account the cost of keeping 100 Israeli warplanes in the air for six hours, including fuel and weapons.

    “These are enormous costs,” said Kalisky, who added that they were comparable to costs in major wars fought by Israel such as the 1973 Arab-Israeli War. Saturday's price tag was unlikely to have an immediate or long-term negative impact on Israel's economy, Kalisky said.

    Iran spent about 1/2 million.

    Daaaamn. Those Jewish government financiers in israel will be chewing the American taxpayers balls right now. Lmao

    Talk about below average intelligence. It's dumb and dumber episode 2.

    For asking for evidence you don’t have?

    And I already reported it for you.

    So, do you have evidence of the accusations you made?

    Specifically, do you have recordings Hamas made of murdering children?

    At first I didn't believe it either, but look it up. Yes, Iran does indeed possess hypersonic missiles. Several varieties of them, actually.

    sounds like Israel now has a valid reason to take out Iran? NBC is claiming that Iran didn't want to start a war, just send a message.

    The world was under a pandemic. People were dying from a deadly virus. People world wide were in isolation and survival mode. If that is peace under Trump..... so be it. To give the POTUS so much credit that he can influence WORLD events and control them is foolhardy, and unrealistic. POTUS is NOT the ruler of each nation , deciding what each nation does. Also, don't be played by Trump's constant BS. That sorry bloke is not in touch with reality on any realm

    indeed. And THAT is the issue. That ATTITUDE of negativity and arrogance towards the military. Bone Spurs is his code word to avoid military responsibility........and growth as a person. Bone Spurs translates into coward. Big MOUTH, but as cowardly as they come.
    It is a relief that Trump is NOT at the helm during this crisis. He blew the Pandemic crisis with his stupid ideas. ( offending the medical staff who were working hard to understand the crisis, deal with it, and create solutions ) Biden may not be a movie version of a POTUS.....but he is experienced, sage in his wisdom, and not inclined to go off half cocked. He negotiates. He understands the importance of diplomacy , Trump makes bargain style deals. ( a simplistic and undiplomatic style that has no lasting results.)
