    Emotionally what we did was the right thing to do..

    We don’t understand (in Iranian logic) what we just did..

    And all of the “crazy”, “unethical “ and illogical “ Iranian response will make perfect sense to them and will not be unethical, illogical or crazy to them..

    Just my opinion, I could be wrong..

    No BS here:

    "Let this serve as a WARNING that if Iran strikes any Americans, or American assets, we have targeted 52 Iranian sites (representing the 52 American hostages taken by Iran many years ago), some at a very high level & important to Iran & the Iranian culture, and those targets, and Iran itself, WILL BE HIT VERY FAST AND VERY HARD," Trump said Saturday, explicitly laying out that the U.S. will act if Iran retaliates.

    Let's keep a good thought that this will ratchet down short of a full blown war. No doubt Iran has been looking for a fight ever since we pulled out of the ill advised nuke deal. Unfortunately those leaders in that area of the world seem to entirely over estimate their military might. Just ask Sadam who was brought to his knees in less than 48 hours. I sure hope it does not come to that. I do however agree that we can not sit back and let nations like Iran orchestrate attacks on our embassies. A response was necessary, I hope it was the right one.

    It would not surprise me if the Iranian fools decide to target a Navy ship in the area and we follow it up with a few hundred cruise missiles. No need to risk pilots in the operation.

    We have learned over and over there is only one thing these savages understand. I hope we don't have to learn it again.

    I just hope a couple of the cruise missiles go through the Ayatollah's bedroom window.

    I'm with you Mike one of my biggest fears is that they may go after one of our ships. God forbid they strike one.

    Game over if they hit one of the our ships. There is no way we can let them get away with that.
