No there won’t. If there are no US troops involved, the US will see this as a face-saving de-escalation. And we will let it go.

Iranian TV is reporting at least 80 US soldiers have died. Some dude on Twitter claims 20 American casualties. Report that US consulate in Erbil has been hit. So many reports are coming in, not sure if they are credible or not.

Appeasement only makes the aggressor more aggressive.

They will continue to plan and carry out attacks against U.S. soldiers and we will continue to play this game with them for years to come. We hit them and we hit them hard.

MSNBC is going to MSNBC

MSNBC to mention Iran claiming 30 US service members were killed when US officials are saying no casualties at this time.

Major media says 0 US so far. Wouldn't trust Iranian media.

So reporting zero deaths... All for show from Iran.

No reason to retaliate. Hold a press conference, tell the world Iran is doing it all for show, and the US won’t even give them a response.

On current happenings, you are correct. We are in the fog of war.

But in relation to how far back Solemani's activities go, that is more well established.
