“These strikes were authorised in response to recent attacks against American and Coalition personnel in Iraq, and to ongoing threats to those personnel,” he said.

 

According to the Pentagon, US fighter jets dropped seven 500-lb Joint Direct Attack Munition-guided precision bombs, hitting seven targets, which includes a crossing used by the armed groups to move weapons across the border.

 

Kirby said the strikes destroyed multiple facilities at a border control point used by a number of Iranian-backed militant groups, including Kata’ib Hezbollah (KH) and Kata’ib Sayyid al-Shuhada (KSS).


“We are confident with the target we went for. We know what we did,” said US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin. “We are confident that target was being used by the same Shia militia that conducted the strikes.”

Austin said a lot of nothing, ALF.  Every quote was a dodge and a weave and an empty statement amounting to "trust us, everything is great".

Yes but Tibs - Trump’s Middle East “peace deals” brought the illusion of “peace” where there was never war.

 

Smoke and mirrors for campaign fodder (just like election fraud) and these freaks fell for it hook line and sinker.

The Saudi's might get upset and sell all their Treasury Bond holdings.  I believe the Saudi's are the 3rd largest holder of US debt behind China and Japan.  Or they might threaten to end the petrodollar agreement made back in the early 1970's for settling all oil trades in US dollars (note: oil producing countries that have recently tried to do this had their governments overthrown or were attacked).  maintaining this petrodollar arrangement is the number one Middle East national security interest of the US government. 

 

The US dollar status as world reserve currency and trade settlement provides special privileges to the US no other nation can utilize.  This system is already becoming compromised as the percentage of reserves and settlement in dollars is falling but a it is happening slowly and in an orderly fashion.  This would speed it up considerably and create a lot of chaos if foreign holders like oil producing countries suddenly decided they do not need or even decided to dump dollars.  They would all come home and that would result in the dollar losing a of of its "value" and hence purchasing power via foreign exchange markets.  That would result in all of our standards of living dropping and lots of inflation related to import prices.  I guess the government could hand out more worthless dollars in more relief bills but they wouldn't be worth much. 

 

But if the Saudi's do this the US would threaten to stop the protection racket the US provides through military muscle that keeps their brutal and oppressive regime in power.  Without the supply of US weapons, intelligence, and support the population would soon overthrown the monarchy.  So they would be forced to pivot to either Russia or China as a new protector.  In summary, there's a lot of potential for trouble and turmoil in the foreign policy area and virtue signalling might have a cost here.

 

A problem in people's thinking with many issues is they fail to foresee or entertain there may be consequences or response to all actions taken.  So yes, a change for the better!  

 

Edit: I should add that of course we all knew the crown prince was the force behind the killing.  It was obvious at the time.  But its not clear what the motivation is at this time to state the obvious.  Perhaps this has been forgotten by President Biden or whoever is performing the tasks and duties assigned to the office of the President.

That was an unfreezing of Iranian assets, which was part of the nuclear agreement between pretty much all the civilized nations of the world.  That money, which was held up as sanctions, did not come from the USA, but rather was tied up in foreign banks.  Trump is the one who bailed on that, and made it a huge waste.  All of this is contrary to Trumps tweets and Facebook memes.

Gotta love the hypocrisy.  Didn't you and your puppet masters/the MSM whine like little girls about him doing it, going so far as to praise the terrorists he killed and wetting your pants over potential retribution that never came? :rolleyes:

Yup.  But only when a Dem is in Office.
