The NYT reports: Death Toll of U.S. Service Members Rises to 16 After Iranian Strike on Jordan.

A U.S. official said the two most recent deaths were believed to have been caused by Iranian ballistic missiles launched in a barrage at a military base in Jordan. Several Iranian missiles were shot down, said the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the attack. But at least one penetrated U.S. and Jordanian air defenses.

I guess these missiles?

The utter waste of human life by this president on a pointless war of choice, wherein we are achieving none of our strategic goals and can’t even get back to the status quo ante, is utterly disgusting.

  1. But Trump said we destroyed almost all of their missiles and drones. Must be fake news.

  2. MAGA website commenters are incensed at this new “Iranian aggression”, demanding Trump call in the B-52s to “finish the job”, whatever that means.

    Meanwhile the regime has found a new way to destabilise the region:

    The Trump administration has tentatively agreed to allow Saudi Arabia to enrich uranium without enacting international safeguards intended to prevent nuclear weapons development, according to sources familiar with the matter and documents reviewed by CNN.

    1. Remind me again…wasn’t Osama bin Laden Saudi? Isn’t it standard practice for Saudi Kings to chop up dissenting journalists? What could go wrong
