News that two service members had been killed by direct Iranian fire rocked the nation on Saturday.

U.S. Central Command announced the two service member's death, a third's disappearance and four medical evacuations one day after a base was attacked in Jordon.

"Out of respect for the families, CENTCOM will withhold additional information, including the identities of the fallen warriors, until 24 hours after the next of kin have been notified," the statement read.

Is this going to give the decomposing orange nonce a chance to start another brawl at Arlington National Cemetery?

Imagine for a second that the rule of law prevailed...and both Netanyahu and Trump were now under charges of war crimes at The Hague...

Trump basks in the idea of changing civilization forever.

Yes, nuclear war.

As for the dead servicemen, Trump the sociopath sees them as so much meat.

He sees everyone as being meat.

"Dead servicemen."

In the current Zeitgeist, don't discount internal interservice sabotage that results in humiliating the US.

Americans hate each other enough these days, and I don't have a lot of trust for members of today's volunteer army / mercenary corps / job service.

It's happened before with Iran. In the desert.

I got my sources.

Don't waste the ammunition. Concentrate it on the water systems.

*** Faux News TV Tumor: "How Is 'Obliterated' Iran Still Attacking Us?" ***

MARIA BARTIROMO: "You know, CENTCOM says there will be outsized action in retaliation, but I don't understand how it's possible that Iran has the capabilities to fight this way and continue to try to lash out at Gulf countries and US military bases. Because the US has obliterated Iran's military, and the president continues to reiterate that."

FORMER DUMMKOPF TRUMPF ADVISOR: "I think their capabilities are lessened, but they're not zero, and that's the important thing. They are a nuisance. They're going after their regional neighbors, and that in a way though can also in the long term be a benefit for us, Maria, because this unites the entire region behind the United States and with Israel. That would have been impossible ten years ago. Now it's actually happening in real time."

This "nuisance" is killing American Sevicemembers and holding the global economy hostage.

Thanks, Bibi and Dummkopf!

My friend's Stepson just got back from his National Guard deployment to the ME about a month ago. He was there for the start of the fiasco. He has what is most likely permanent hearing damage but otherwise came out of it okay. I believe he has several opinions and positions that have been changed.
