How will Iran respond? Why not kill this guy off on the quiet? How many terrorists do you generate by creating a martyr?

Both Kurds and this general did more on the ground to defeat ISIS than any other force. No real surprise that once their dirty work is done, they are bombed - I would guess primarily because they both became too powerful in the region, threatening US and Turkish interests.

Well, that and all the terrorism.
 
A question to anyone who's spent time in Iran:

Is it just media portrayal of are they a country full of people with a very short fuse?

Watching Western news, it appears that they're angrily demanding death to some enemy or another, whilst taking to the streets about brick way out of their control every few days.
 
A nice little war in the Middle East to deflect attention from the coming impeachement trial. #tinfoilhat

I had an Iranian friend while studying in Australia. He was nothing like the weirdos on TV - just an ordinary guy who liked girls, beer and football. He was not religious and certainly not very hot headed. Just incredibly chatty. And a pretty good footballer too.

Edit: So that's at least one guy who doesn’t fit the stereotype, now for the remaining 120 millions or so. :D

I've read an analysis of the lead up to this attack (state department anon insiders etc) and the take is it was a scrambled off the cuff op and nothing planned for the serious ramifications that will ensue. Or, as you say, another read is that it is chaff to distract from the news that evidence has surfaced that he directly ordered the OMB to withhold aid to Ukraine and he is being funded from Russia (VTB).

fudge me, for someone who claims immense intelligence you're a sheltered little soul aren't you.

Surely you know not to believe everything you see on the fudging television?

Embarrassing statements.
 
Well, that and all the terrorism.

There are terrorists born and bred in the UK, not only fanatical Islamists either. Should we fear a Team Merrica drone strike?

It's none of their fudging business and it's only done for a couple of prime reasons which aren't to combat terrorism... Think profiteering (you should understand that) and distraction.

Wouldn't this macaronic combat strategy have worked by now? Why isn't terrorism obliterated if military action in the Middle East is so effective?

I suspect the not religious bit has much to do with that.
