I'd bet good money a nice MQ-9 Reaper loosed a couple 2-3 Hellfires on old Qassem's ass...

The reference to "Katyusha rockets" in the article linked earlier in this thread quickly disappeared.... for good reason.

To quote Japanese admiral Isoroku Yamamoto :

“I’m afraid we have awakened a sleeping giant and filled him w/a terrible resolve.”

Remember how that turned out, don’t we

Ummmm no.

Whatever launches it it was laser guided and smart money is a hellfire.

The stupid bloviating has begun:

Former Iran Guards chief vows "vigorous revenge against America" for Soleimani killing

DUBAI, Jan 3 (Reuters) - A former commander of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, Mohsen Rezaei, on Friday vowed “vigorous revenge against America” for the killing of Qassem Soleimani, head of the elite Quds Force.

“Martyr Lieutenant General Qassem Suleimani joined his martyred brothers, but we will take vigorous revenge on America,” Rezaei, who is now the secretary of a powerful state body, said in a post on Twitter.

Earlier today photos were in the news showing one of the officials was in the embassy crowd probably directing he events. He apparently went to DC a few years ago when the former resident was in the White House. No doubt t thank him for all that cash they could now use to pay for murder and mayhem.
I suspect there was a reason those photos appeared just a few hours ago.

I wonder what Valerie Jarrett has to say about it. Or her daughter Laura the CNN reporter.

I know it’s tacky, I just want him to wear it as a reminder to these thugs. “Fuck with the US and I’ll kill you and take your shit.”

Discreet case inside the Oval Office. What George W. did with Saddam's pistol.

Looks like Connery is going to need a body double....

Apparently he was there quite often, and was involved in the war against ISIS.

There will be another shoe (or several) to drop here. The only question is where and when.

Good riddance.

Hey, Mike. I wonder what stone is set in that ring. My guess is garnet or ruby. The metal looks to be a nice, worn sterling silver. I also wonder who kept the ring.

Oh yeah! That US ordnance bit was good! LOL!!!!!

This just in: Iranian State Department issues Travel Advisory Warning for Generals traveling in Iraq.

And next at bat, Mohsen Rezaei. No hits, no runs, two errors....
