The bible tells us "as much as depends upon you, try to live at peace with all men". There needs to be a forcefulness, around that command. By that I mean a real effort put forward to try to work towards peace. War will unleash much hurt to the nations. War is not a play thing.

This is the commencement of labor pains, as mentioned in MattithYahuw ("Matthew") chapter 24. We are certainly in the end of days. May Yahweh Yahuwshua come to rescue His children sooner rather than later!

Apparently so far no reports of US casualties. Which means either the Iranian missiles really have terrible guidance systems, or this was a shot across the bow.

Now the question is what will Iraq do if there are Iraqi casualties? Both missile strikes happened in non Shia areas. One in Sunni (Balad) area and one in Kurdish (Irbil).

When I was stationed in Balad 2004-2005, these kind of attacks happened nearly every day. Rarely did they result is any casualties.

URGENT BREAKING: Iran state affiliated media channel Tasnim news reports officials saying that if US retaliates to tonights Iran strikes on US bases, Hezbollah will target Israel by its missiles.
It seems that Iran is looking at Trump's criteria for a response (no American lives lost) as an agreement. They backed away from sending missiles at a U.S base which was closer to them then the other two and from what I've heard with more Americans. And this response above saying if you bomb us we're not going to bomb you but we're targeting Israel. One wonders though how anyone assessing such a statement can reasonably consider just an idea if the one hurts me I"m going to hurt somebody else. In other words Iran is running scared of the one they'd consider is the chief offender .

Escalating? Iran fired dozens of ballistic missiles into a sovereign country. From Iran. Those sites will now have to be taken out and the entire Iranian air defense system.
Just glad your not at the helm.

No US casualties? Then I think the recommendation is going to be to strike more Hezbollah targets in Syria.

This all might be an attempt to send the Sunni and Kurd factions of the Iraqi Parliament a message to join the Shia factions backed by Iran to expel US forces and also see if the US escalates.

Trump’s redline is US lives. No US casualties then I believe he shows restraint and goes for material targets in Syria. Or Israel does it.
Lots of speculation there redleg......

Since when does Hezbollah need a reason to send missiles into Israel? Why were Patriot missiles not deployed to intercept? Why did President Trump say, "All is well?" That said, let's consider something else. Iran could not have sat quietly by and let an attack by the US against one of their people go unanswered. The Iranian government would have watched riots in the streets if they didn't take action. They would be the laughing stock of the Middle East region. A few missiles, hit physical targets that needed replacing anyway, everybody goes home with their ego intact and the shoe falls to the floor.

America got their (sic) desired result...

You should have raised that objection when you were in the pre-strike meeting with the Joints Chiefs of Staff.

Oh, wait...

Just after you left they got that CRAM system in. Early warning and Vulcan guns.

Then again we had early warning so all aircraft probably scrambled or buttoned up in bunkers, all personnel in protective shelters.
