Missiles strike near U.S. consulate in north Iraq

So will the US administration do anything about this?

Nothing US was hit. It was an attack from Iran on Iraq. Why should the US administration do anything but warn US citizens in the area of possibly more attacks on Iraq.

You’ve stated many times that they shouldn’t. Tell us something about the border instead.

Enemies are more brazen when they smell weakness. Can one honestly say that this administration shows strength???

I say the administration has shown great strength by resisting those who presuring them to get involved, and instead of direct involvement in Putin's First War are staying with their pledge to NOT get the US any further enmeshed in the horrors of Putin's War 1. The Oligarchy Party's Bush and other war hawks led the US into in horrible, nasty wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. I have not lived in the US for a long time but my sense is most Americans, except those backing defense and fossil fuel corporations are tired of seeing US flag draped coffins returning from a place the US had no business being in the first place, and most Americans are also tired of reading about millions of innocent people of any nationality being killed by US weapons.

But if Biden's admin were to do anything, the antiBiden/pro-Oligarchy/anti-American Party and their media and global extreme right keyboard army warriors would resort to their claims that Biden's a warmonger, while continuing to not criticize Putin, because Putin's political beliefs (look up the English dictionary meaning for 'fascism') are closer to those of the modern Oligarchy Party.

Putin placing another bounty on US military personnel and civilians abroad like he did when trump was in office.

Iran is not taking credit for this but I think it is pretty obvious when two days ago Israel took out two Iranian officers in Syria.

@Numan

There was never any proof that Putin put a bounty on US military personnel. It was just more propaganda.

Let's remember that the last time missiles were fired from Iran at US targets in Iraq, they were very effective at hitting those targets despite those targets being protected by some of America's best air defence systems on high alert for the disclosed attack.

Let's also remember that the US presence in Iraq is opposed by the Iraqi government, and the more effective though under equipped part of the Iraqi military.

And also remember that the US is presently being extremely vocal on the domestic and international stage about how bad it is for a military to be on foreign soil against the wishes of the local population and government.

How likely do you think it is that the US would admit that the missiles had been launched by Iraqis opposed to the US military presence in Iraq?

More detailed reports have clarified that the targets weren't the American presence in Iraq, they were the Israeli regime's presence, and the targets were hit, with casualties.

Looks like there's another conflict moving from deadly cold towards actively hot.

What do you think the price of gasoline will hit in Japan if that happens?

Let's also remember that the US presence in Iraq is opposed by the Iraqi government, and the more effective though under equipped part of the Iraqi military.

Why do you bother with lies? Nobody believes them. If the elected Iraqi governments wanted the US out completely they would ask them to leave. I am sure your one of these, (Japan is still occupied) propagandists.

In other more independent news…

Revolutionary Guards say barrage aimed at Israeli “strategic center” in Iraq, according to Iranian media

I guess someone either missed the news, or conveniently forgot that the Iraqi government DID ask the US to get its military out of Iraq. The US simply deemed both requests invalid.

I thought the US was meant to be leaving Iraq!? Guess the Iraqis now realise that was never going to happen!
