  • I'm looking forward to Fox News saying that a war might not be a great idea. For the first time ever.

  • Dear Israel, Arab League, et al - We are broke. Please take care of this yourself. Sincerely, The United States of America PS: Oil below $50/barrel would be nice.

  • Boys, boys, boys... You all are missing the point. The point is not that civilians are dying or our current enemy is fighting our future enemy or some convoluted mess thereof. What's really concern

U.S. Airstrikes in Syria tonight...hitting Iran backed infrastructure and groups that enabled the recent rocket attacks.  Stay safe Lads and Lassies.

Life comes at you fast.

This is what circling back is I guess.

No no, this is different...

New longer video of the attack on Al Asad. 

Obviously they were trying to kill Americans and we are lucky this didn't turn into something bigger.  Numerous articles out now and I think a 60 Minutes story with some very harrowing stories from our folks who were on the ground.  More than 100 U.S. troops have brain injuries as a result of this "payback" attack.  I don't know that I would have let it go.

 

 

 

51 aircraft were evacuated but left enough troops that 100+ got injured?

With 100-1000's of Iranian militia literally outside the fenceline, you can't just pack it up and leave it to them.

The stories from that night are legendary and it's a shame nothing has really come of it.  Just folks pushing to do the right thing despite top level pushback that ultimately almost cost hundreds of lives and millions in treasure.

On Instagram (often surprisingly good RUMINT) the word is it was a newly CMR LT

Well, it was a Strike Eagle... so both could be true. 

Pawnman is correct, it was both.

Looks like this might be finally wrapping up!

So, Assad made it to Russia. Is this another example of us doing regime change with no real plan for long term stability? Is there any hope for Syria anyway? I've seen a couple of reports that now the 10% Christian population is completely screwed. Why do We the People have no clue on what we are trying to accomplish there (not detailed plans but at least a 30,000 foot plan)?

I know Assad was/is a Russian asset but what if (like pretty much every time we've done this) we get a worse turd in leadership that causes even more destruction and harm to Syrians in general (and makes the situation in the region even worse)?

I don't think we are the driving force behind HTS.  Correct me if I'm wrong, as I don't closely follow the insurgent groups there

I was reading an NPR article that between the lines sounded like Turkey was behind their recent success somehow. Will have to find.
