CNN probably pulled some old Rambo films to show how bad the bombs are.

I wouldn't doubt it. The guy was hiding in plain sight. He could've been taken out anytime.

Why now?


Tensions have been ratcheting up for half a year now, if not longer. The missile assassination was a step up, but so to was the embassy storming.

That seems right. I was thinking about that 'war' the other day when all this started.

Strange how we see these wars as old TV series or some shite.

This base has been the subject of multiple rocket attacks.

The first videos do not show any Patriot missile of ABM countermeasures deployed.

Why are those assets not already in place to protect the base?

I just saw a video of some new CIWS type setup that was knocking everything out of the sky. You would think they would have that stuff set up all over the region.

Because the UN isn't a maid service.

You cause the mess, you clean it up.

If you're not willing to do that, then quit making fricking messes everywhere.

We’ve been in the Middle East for years. Vietnam was launching into a brand new world, where we didn’t have drones to tell us where the other side was

I’ll have to look. It was about a week ago. It was badass. It even adjusted the rate of fire to conserve ammo when it could.

For it to be WWIII multiple countries with militaries would have to get involved. Unless they are on our side, China, Russia, and anyone else isn’t sending troops
