US Embassy in Iraqhe P

Current news reports are saying there are no injuries or deaths so far. I suspect that if injuries/deaths do occur to U.S. personnel, Mr. Trump will show Obama and Hilary how it should have been done in Benghazi.
 
It is really an Iraq issue to protect our embassy. But we have control over their government, and have for over a decade, so maybe it is time we let that crap hole run their own show. We have been trying to buy "friends" since WWII, by now we should know that stuff doesn't work.
 
Well, we took out the head of the IRG with a drone missile attack outside of the airport at Bagdad.

In response to the US killing of Soleimani the Iranians fired 22 ballistic missiles at the Iraqi Airbase with US troops. The missiles landed on the barracks where the US drone Operators sleep. Fortunately, the drone operators had advance warning and had taken shelter in concrete bunkers that Saddam built for the Iraqi troops during the Iraq vs. Iran war some decades ago. No use servicemen or civilians were killed or injured. But Iran showed that they can hit our troops anything they want. The US did not have any defenses against the Iranian Ballistic Missles and were helpless at the time and all they could do was shelter inside the concrete bunkers. Those Ballistic missiles carried 1000 and 2000 lbs of high explosives.

Trump did not retaliate against Iran.

Another attack on another Iraqi Airbase occurred not long after the ballistic missile attacks. This attack was by 6 short-range rockets that are made in Russia and used by the Iranians. Several mortar rounds also landed on the airbase.
