If we’ve learned anything from all this; acting/reacting hastily is not the best course.

Nope, all Bush's fault. Nothing but a damn trillion dollar train wreck from day one. Not to be political but...anyone who looking back and cannot say that Iraq was a HUGE mistake is naive. But, what is done is done... cant change it now. Iraq was a huge mistake but there has been plenty of time to get the heck out. Iran is Russia's proxy like North Korea is China's. We either need to glass them and leave or just leave. Russia will move into Syria, Iran and Iraq. Let them be the occupiers...China is busy taking over Africa. Bingo!

Whoever is at fault/blame. They are attacking our Embassy. I don’t think Trump will let this happen. Maybe Pompeo will have to testify for 11 hours about the attack. there will be no need. Unlike your feckless demi god, Trump will thump them hard. There will be no bengazi.

I don’t keep up with politics much. Can someone give me the cliff notes of what’s going on? I didn’t know Iran was formally involved in Iraq. From the article... "The airstrikes targeted an Iranian-backed Iraqi militia, Kataib Hezbollah, which the United States accused of carrying out a missile attack on an Iraqi military base that killed an American contractor and wounded American and Iraqi service members." Iran backs militants with ammo and weapons. Airstrikes were carried out in 5 places.......3 in Iraq and 2 in Syria......ammo dumps mostly. 25 K's

Unlike your feckless demi god, Trump will thump them hard. There will be no bengazi. " U.S. defense official told Fox News that 100 Marines are being sent to the embassy to bolster security. A U.S. Apache helicopter gunship also flew over the embassy and dropped flares in a “show of force,” attempting to disperse the crowd. Defense Secretary Mark Esper later confirmed additional forces are being sent." https://www.foxnews.com/politics/us...mbassy-attack-there-will-be-no-benghazis

Trump has pretty much abdicated that region to Russia and Turkey, and withdrew from the nuclear agreement that was holding Iran in check. He's a stable genius.

Enlighten me here please. Why would these people attack our Embassy to begin with? If Iran is funding these militants with weapons and ammo etc., to cause harm to others in Iraq, why wouldn't the population be glad to get rid of these dumps and a few militants?

Nope. Thank you President Carter for setting US precedent for allowing others to invade and occupy US soil inside other nations borders. Thank you Sec of State Hillary Clinton for following President Carter's lead with Benghazi. Trump should have told the Iraqi military to stand back. An AC-130 (Specter Gunship) would be along shortly to take care of the invaders on US soil.
He is truly a sick individual.

I for one would be really interested in just how the bs agreement was holding iran back from anything, once they got the cash from obie all bets were off. add to that that the deal itself was a total sham except for iran, they dictate when, where, and who inspected anything, explain how that is "holding them back".

I say BRING IT! we need to back the iran civilians a lot more than we are now, they are protesting and in the mood.
