Loving America telling all American nationals to get out of Iran ASAP. 24hrs too late... There's 1,400 UK soldiers in the Iraq/Syria region that could become more of a target as well, as well as countless British nationals. We are linked to the US in everything they do in the eyes many in the Middle East whether we back this particular stance or otherwise......

So it is up to Iran not to respond to the bombing of one of their top generals, but that bombing of their general was a perfectly acceptable response to Iranian supporters storming the US embassy and killing no-one? If they didn't attack the US embassy then their fella doesn't get killed. If Iran retaliate then they know the US will do so in return. It's really not hard to understand. The US, for all their faults, didn't start this latest episode no matter how much people are trying to paint it that way. Yep and its also why Iran is unlikely to respond with a direct attack but instead use surrogates he was there to organise attacks on american troops it really is on them. Bloke was worst of the worst good riddance.

Is this the start of the first real post Brexit trade drive? We donate bombs and bullets indiscriminately and free of charge and they send over young terrorists to blow the fuck out of us on our bridges and at our concert venues.
Such larks.

The commander of Iran’s Quds Force has been killed in a United States strike ordered by President Trump and aimed at “deterring future Iranian attack plans,” the Pentagon says

the US has been bombing Iraq for 3 straight decades now, it never stopped after the first gulf war, can anyone explain to me exactly what it is they're trying to accomplish ? seems o me the best option would have been to get out, stay out and let the chips fall, if that means losing iraq to iran then so be it. The guy they just killed has been helping destroy isis :/ He'd still be alive if the Iran-backed PMF hadn't attacked the US Embassy. He was sat in a car with one of the PMFs top blokes for fucks sake. This isn't the usual "US wanting to kick off a war" shit (Something I've always been against) This one is very much on Iran, they have no-one to blame but themselves... And if this escalates further it will again be on Iran's head as the only way it does go any further is if Iran decides to do something stupid again. Ahhh yes, the old "He started it" school of morality. The standard fallback of schoolchildren and dullards since time began. Always leads to a speedy, mature, rational and clean resolution to conflict doesn't it

This has all the hallmarks of another American mess the rest of the world will have to clean up again . Is The US going to bomb another country back to the Stone Age ? With untold misery for millions of people ? The difference being that militarily Iran are in a different league to some of the previous countries, a totally different league. It wouldn't be pretty. The nationalism is already being stoked up in America, I'm guessing by people who haven't got 18-30 year old children in the armed forces...... There are many different aspects to this potentially , china or , Russia, could all be sucked in to this , coupled with Irans nukes pointing at Israel it has all the makings of a very dangerous confrontation

Really not looking good is it? For those saying “stay out of it” we might find it hard to when Donald asks for our help in any potential conflict in the region. He’s hardly likely to take a refusal on the chin is he when he would hold all the cards?
This could get very ugly, very fast. It’s another reckless act, in an already risky and hawkish foreign policy given the tensions already in the region.

We should just let them get on with hanging gays from cranes and killing 1,500+ protesters like they have done in the last few months, vast majority of reaction I have seen from syrians, iraqi's and iranians is absolute delight at one of the vilest murderers in the region get decapitated by a drone.

Well if nothing else, it's a different approach. How this is going to play out is anybodies guess, but I'm struggling to see the plus side here. If Iran retaliate by taking out a senior US military official, then what will be the proportionate response?

Quite right. I expect us and the US to start bombing the cunt out of Saudi forthwith, rather than arming them to the teeth. Morals is morals.
