Um. Maybe. Owner has spoken about going to his church the night of 9-11 and finding others of like mind there. And his observation of national unity and bonding against the terror which he sensed for a week or more afterwards.

He first put out his flag after that day. And - until Obama was elected, defeated, and since Trump was elected.

As outsider I have seen that humanity CAN unite under threat. And will likely rise to a National threat - should it occur.

I will fill up in the morning, hope it hasn't gone through the roof overnight. It is already $2.49/gal in some spots around here.

I don't see how #Iran can let the targeted killing of #Soleimani / #Suleimani slip. This man was #Khamenei 's right hand in Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon. #Tehran will want to retaliate massively and publicly. Assuming this news is accurate, we are on the brink of a US-Iran #war.

well it appears we have his right hand, they should send it to them.

It helps A LOT that the US now produces more oil than it consumes. All that fracking and development of onshore refinery capacity.

I don't drive and in fact look upon horseless carriages as a competition and a blight - but they are a necessary evil in this "modern" world. Were I a driver, I would fill up at a gas station early tomorrow and then stay home and see how the weekend goes.

Oil prices rocketed nearly 4% in the morning of Asia trading hours, following reports that a top Iranian military general was killed in an airstrike in Baghdad. General Qassim Soleimani is a "very significant individual," says this analyst.

The end times are here.
I don't think any of us want to see a shooting war in the ME. But what is the US to do when Iranian military personnel (not protesters, as reported by the MSM) attack our embassy? The Obama crew would have suppressed the news and sent more money to Iran. (Remember pictures of the pallets of cash going to Iran?) Trump is showing them the pussy days are over.

The next few days and weeks could be exciting, to say the least.

A potential Iranian response is likely to target US military equities in the Gulf. Top targets include: • US forces in Saudi Arabia, specifically at PSAB • US Air Force via Al Udeid in Qatar • US Army at Camp Arifjan in Kuwait • US Navy in Bahrain or via ships in 5th Fleet

Oh, gosh, no! I wouldn't go to work there either! I worry about son's place of study. Thankfully, they're out for the long winter break. Stay safe and PM me if push comes to shove.

Potential Iranian retaliatory measures: - Ballistic / cruise missile strikes on U.S. interest. - Extensive cyber-warfare measures. - Escalated proxy harassment maneuvers. - Naval hit-and-run tactics in the Strait of Hormuz.

Can't that cow keep her pie hole shut? As a rep, you've already wasted any political clout you had on a fake impeachment. You are done.

Question: How is it that this guy's severed hand with his ring can be photographed and broadcast worldwide......but bin Laden had to be buried immediately and secretly at sea without any photos?
Click to expand...
Because we had control of bin Laden's body and could prevent the pictures from being used for PR to glorify him as a martyr.
The Iraqis and Iranians have control of the bodies this time and they will use them to incite the idiot moslems into an all out rage.
Our best solution to this is to create as many mutilated jihadi enemy corpses just as fast as the Iranians can produce them.

There is not going to be any way to finesse our way out of the bloodshed to come.
It's inevitability has been brewing for decades and it's time may have come at last.

What is ironic is the democrats had started to criticize Trump about not doing anything about the embassy attack, and now they're bitching because he did too much :shk:

Funny how the Iraqi government finally found the stones to surround and defend the US embassy with their best elite soldiers. A little assassination via a missile strike goes a long way :lol:

The moving finger writes,
and having written moves on.
Nor all thy piety
nor all thy wit,
can cancel half a line of it.

Quote from another Omar (Khayyam)

Rep. Ilhan Omar runs short on piety and wit, so cancel can be equally quick.

Ilhan Omar who?
