At least 10 rockets hit al-Asad airbase in Iraq, which houses US forces, a Sunni commander of the paramilitary forces in a nearby town told CNN.
Qatri al-Obeidi, a commander in the nearby town of al-Baghdadi, said that the shelling has stopped for now. President Donald Trump visited the base in December 2018 to visit troops after Christmas. Vice President Mike Pence also visited the base in November 2019. The attack follows last week's deadly US drone strike that Trump ordered to kill key Iranian General Qasem Soleimani.

It's not going to be a WW3 because who is going to back trump. JT is not going to send troops and I don't think Germany, France, the UK, or any other NATO country will send troops either. They all know he is an idiot.

Yeah but if the US actually went balls in, they could destroy that entire country.
That being said you can’t destroy those people. Probably some of the strongest and most resilient on the planet (just watch Rambo 3)

I think you are confused about Rambo 3.

a precision strike without boots on the ground.
a mild (by all insensitive purposes) retaliation in a neighbouring country.
it's too bad Trump conducts himself so poorly (terrible boisterous tweets with no humility / lack of transparency/info to the American public) cause in reality this was a clean victory without any (for the most part) disagreement from other prominent leaders.

The Anglo Zionist must have been behind it... when Iran was going to push over Iraq and finish the war in 1988, they shot down an Iranian civilian plane.
edit
reported 80 Killed at US bases, not confirmed. Some are probably Iraqi.

All Canadian military personnel in country are safe and accounted for. In fact none of the coalition (US, Norway, Germany, Australia, NZ, etc) are reporting any casualties.
