A US government statement said: "It is clear that these missiles were launched from Iran and targeted at least two Iraqi military bases hosting US military and coalition personnel at Al Assad and Erbil.
"We are working on initial battle damage assessments.
"These bases have been on high alert due to indications that the Iranian regime planned to attack our forces and interests in the region.
"As we evaluate the situation and our response, we will take all necessary measures to protect and defend US personnel, partners, and allies in the region."

And now facebook and other top media outlets are claiming responsiblity for Trump getting "elected"
You seriously could have seen this coming a mile off Even the media ain't hiding it anymore, Trumps so called "supporters" have been told they are not responsible only in the x being placed in the box You were fooled and now we're telling you as such |

Irans Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps launches "Operation Hard Revenge"
Sounds a bit LGBT cheeky  |

By:
Operation Pillocks sounds more apt

But Iran will murder the US if they try anything
I don't think the yanks realise how weak they are |

Oil prices soar on news of attacks.....
Oil prices jumped and markets slumped in Asia early on Wednesday, as investors tried to parse reports of missile attacks on military bases in Iraq where American troops are stationed. |
|
By:
No one is going to bomb Iran. And neither is Iran going to bomb anyone. Oil is up. So are oil stocks.
|
|
By:
All about the oil again isn't it
You can't have cheap oil I personally think this is just another political game and it'll die down over the next few weeks, Trump ain't even doing a public address so that tells you a lot right there |
|
By:
Oil up job done
|
|
By:
No one is asking the obvious question here
What happened to the yanks defence system? they just let missiles rain down on them without trying to stop it? The utter nonsense of it |
|
By:
I think twitter can go to bed and put away their fears now
I still can't believe people eat this s*** up, they pull it off every single time. BBC/CNN and the rest can pack it in the wall to wall coverage now as well |

Not much being said about the two earthquakes in Iran overnight, did this even happen? Scant Reports of two earthquakes of magnitudes 4.9 overnight, epicenters close to Iranain nuclear facility.

Photographs emerging of shrapnel damage on wreckage,various sources claiming an in air explosion on portside of aircraft from outside , interesting that very few carriers fly in-out of Iran and speculation the regular flights between Iran and Ukraine will be energy company related.

Ukraine Embassy apparently completely on-board with preliminary investigations pointing to engine failure rather than terrorist act, reports Reuters.
Pics I've seen look uncannily like MH17... Granted an uncontained engine failure / explosion might also generate shrapnel holes... |

Ukraine Embassy retracts its statement about engine failure....

Iranian's Firing off Rockets ,and a plane decides to take off , what could possibly go wrong ??
Who in their right mind allowed the plane to take off ?? |
|
By:
Makes no sense whatsoever , for all anyone knew the Yanks could have started firing Rockets back ??
|
|
By:
So far in this war the Iranians have killed more Iranians than the USA have
|
|
By:
So bad, WW3 kicking off
And Trump sods of to bed without giving a speech People might well wake up eventually |
|
By:
It`s called `Leadership`; would you rather he`d made a speech instantly, based on less than full information, announcing that he had, as a kneejerk reaction, just nuked Iran?
|
|
By:
Seems the trial proper will take 6 weeks
An unanimous verdict is needed for conviction Potential jurors have their social media scrutined Might be finished by the Cheltenham Festive!!!  |

A plane shot out of the sky in Ukraine, Russia did it.
A plane shot out of the sky in Iran, engine failure. |

The insanity of it all
The yanks go in and attack a sovereign nation to kill another nations top commander, then bark about restraint and no retaliation Iran then bombard a sovereign nations bases with ballistic missiles in what they claim to be "self defence", yet they haven't been attacked directly and wont be attacked directly Neither country attacked directly, a tit for tat in another nations country basically its like 2 w***ers turning up to your house, setting up camp in the front room and kitchen, smashing your house to pieces in the name of "self defence" And people sit there defending this s*** ie Timbuck and co |
|
By:
And people don't care because its not their country being turned to rubble in the name of "self defence **cough** oil **cough**

Not one person in the Trump family has ever served in the Military in any capacity. When Draft Dodger,General "bone spurs" (who has no clue about anything Military)makes a Military decision what could possible go wrong?

By:
My two neighbours have set up camp in the back yard, drew a line and declared their halfs their land
They are currently fighting over a bone over the other side of the fence on Mrs pickets lawn, they are declaring that land the warzone |
|
By:
This has of course been planned for years,"Iran number 5th of 7 countries to invade" Just look at the state of the others they've royally f ucked.
|
|
By:
If Iran had any wit about them
They'd attack another base tonight, and ask Trump "and?" They keep barking out these orders, call their sodding bluff, Iran I don't think the yanks have anything about them at all |
|
By:
Trump trying it on in that presser
"standing down", like he's some sort of master negotiator, looking at it without delving into it, I'd say Iran have made him look a total mug And now is the time to strike again, only this time don't tell them its coming |
|
By:
They can't invade Iran so do it
I don't think the yanks would have thought it through properly if they think they can invade on foot ffs, they'd struggle to get the fighter jets a mile passed the border without being blown out the sky |
|
By:
the bloke trump had killed was not a government commander etc he was a terrorist
hope this helps |
|
By:
Iran DELIBERATELY failed to hit US military targets in Iraq missile attack for fear of escalating conflict with Donald Trump, intelligence sources reveal
iran have made fools of themselves here imo, they are sh1t scared of the donald! |
|
By:
Donald is an out shape old man with vanity issues who hasn't accepted he's bald and tries to hide it with a pish poor syrup comb-over
No one is scared of him |
|
By:
meanwhile we have an imam in the uk telling his people to be more like the iranian terrorist
|

By:
And who really knows what went off last night
100s could have died but they ain't telling us because there's nothing to be gained from it at this time Although listening to people out and about they are sold on the idea of attacking Iran |
