A few weeks ago, Iran took out a Saudi refinery with pinpoint accuracy.

Reportedly, they fired 19 missiles and 17 were direct on their targets. They are very, very accurate.

So, those that missed the American troops in last night missile attack, were probably meant to have missed them?

There could have been many American casualties from the attack, if they so desired.

Trump is now on television celebrating that no Americans were killed or injured in the attack.

1. IIRC They used drones?

2. Missiles...

is my understanding.

They did shoot an American spy drone out of the sky a few weeks ago, at a very high altitude.

4. Uh, divine intervention?

Yeah, I know, but don't be surprised to see that from one of Trump's demented followers.

5. Interesting point about Iran's pinpoint accuracy.

WH trying to put out iran afraid of war, weak, incompetent, and backing off. [Doubtful, WH lies and lies].

Experts saying it gives wiggle room for both sides to claim macho - and actually talk about this.

Lots of perspectives in this messy world.

6. Iran is rope a doping Trump.

They will probably target one of his private investments.

7. This was a highly visible attack for their people

The real attack will likely be in cyber space, and thus, not tangible. They needed a show, but a show that would not turn into a shooting match. They've had their show. Now the real threat begins and we won't hear about it until long after it happens.
