[News] Top Iranian military commander killed by air strikes

[Stat Brother]

Anti Semitic, according to Trump.

I missed that spout of nonsense.

Is The Donald denying his actions have bought some jeopardy to Israel, which in turn will bring everyone to the table?

Sorry I was on a tangent. 3 weeks back Trump Announced changes to anti-semite law from just being slurs against Jewish people to include the actions of the Israeli state. The Law itself would be anti-Semite.

The Saudi, Israeli, Trump and UK war alliance is mobilising.

Looks like the Iranians have hit back at US facilities in Iraq.

I bet Boris is glad he's been on holiday during the whole crises.

Video shows at least 6 cruise missiles. But reports of up to 30 across Iraq. Apparently from inside Iran....a first since the Iran-Iraq war.

So it begins.

It’s going to be a cracking WC in Qatar! Nice one FIFA, who’d have thought eh?!!

"Coalition forces" at those air bases, too - which I guess includes UK. We are now directly involved in this mess. Meanwhile, Bozo is still on holiday.

No he's back, suitcase to un-pack etc...

Fully on back on Monday, but popping into PMQs tomorrow. You've got to feel sorry for the guy, really not cut out as Foreign Secretary and moved to the PM job to concentrate on British stuff which is more his thing.

THEN THIS HAPPENS.

What bad luck.

He's missed three Cobra meetings. Wonder if he'll bother to put in some kind of appearance tomorrow?

 

[The Clamp]

Well, that's it then. I suppose we have ourselves a war.

 

[portlock seagull]

A very modern conflict this, both Trump and equivalent in Iran are tweeting images of their respective flags at each other, confirmation that the world truly has gone batshit mental when powerful leaders are behaving like toddlers. Laughable really except people are getting killed because of. Madness.

Skypes in.

That's nice. Haven't had one for a while. Who's sponsoring it ?

Ha! British war ships have begun readying themselves in the Gulf and the U.K. defence secretary when asked if the U.K. would launch strikes on Iran “isn’t ruling anything out”.

What a fantastic start to 2020.

 

[Insel affe]

Oh fantastic news.......

Here we go round two, Iran’s move.....

CNN asking Trump to de escalate his response as they think this was the least Iran could do to appease the baying Iranian public, and actually they want to talk to America. Then one reporter suggested the lack of Trumps tweets right now show he is a measured leader.....

Feckin marvellous....

I do like Iran’s response though, in their “tweet” quoting a UN resolution against terrorism.

Trump your stupid move next.....
(Other than trying to boost your re election opinion polls)

CNN just pointed out war is not his strong suit...

I rather suspect that's all for now folks.

I can't see Iran having another go. The US would also be silly to take things further.

As you were.

I think.

I think UK troops have to supply their own tanks though.

Vickers has a 2 for 1 deal. Coca Cola are offering sponsorships. Sainsburys low interest finance on a lease to buy.
