The IRGC said the operation also killed five wanted militants, resulted in the arrest of several others, and led to the seizure of weapons and ammunition.

Why are nonimmigrants and illegal aliens eligible for government mortgages, loans, and grants?

South eastern Iran? I would have thought maybe NW. What's going on down there? And yeah, How often do Generals get killed in a firefight.  |

Breaking: This is not Syria. This is Saravan in eastern Iran, and it is happening now. Security forces of Iran’s Islamic regime are clashing with members of the Popular Resistance Front, a coalition that includes Jaysh al-Adl, formerly known as Jundallah. Jaysh al-Adl is designated by the U.S. government as a terrorist organization. Security forces have located the group’s hideout in the city and are raiding it from several directions while local residents watch the confrontation unfold. |

I'd rather go out that way than on the wrong end of a JDAM. He had more balls than the majority of "Democratic Socialists" infesting American politics. |

I'll take an R9E point det to the dome vs JDAM any day. Seen so many guys in man jams, brush their shoulders off after a GBU-54 strike , even though they were missing limbs.

And those terrorists we sponsor will never turn around in a decade or two and start attacking the west. That said I hate the Iranians so fuck em, enjoy your insurgency goat fuckers. |

That part of the world is called Baluchistan and has an ethnic group, called the Baluch, that was conquered and then split into parts of Iran, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Every couple decades they try and get independence and blow up a bunch of stuff. This has been going on for a long time and the local governments despise them. They are just typical Islamic shitheads that want to be in charge though, not based freedom fighters. I guess we are arming them now to fight Iran. That will certainly make Pakistan happy. Edit: Northwest Iran has Kurds. Similar situation with that ethnic group, but when we tried arming the Iranian Kurds, the Kurds in Iraq that are supposed to be our allies stole the weapons instead of delivering them to the Iranian Kurds. I am guessing that is a major reason we are pulling out of Erbil, since one of the reasons we kept that base open was to protect the Kurds from the Iraqis and Turks. |

I really just don't give a shit about anything over there. I used to wait breathlessly over updates about the Kurds, then other pro-freedom groups, etc. Now? Fuck em all, their stone age asses can all rot in hell for all I care. An Iranian douchebag died at the hands of other douchebags? Meh. More of that. |

No There’s 2 different Kurd groups in Iraq both denied President Trump’s accusation of stealing weapons. Israel accused Turkey over it. The withdraw was a deal made under Biden fir which the USA is keeping its agreement while the Iraqis have failed to live up to their part in return https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jul/26/joe-biden-iraq-mustafa-al-kadhimi-us-military-combat-mission

Some reports of martial law in Tehran. Operation near the border with Pakistan The battle took place in the Jihadabad area of Saravan, near Iran's border with Pakistan. According to the Iranian side, joint forces of the IRGC, the Ministry of Intelligence and police conducted a raid at a location where security forces believed an armed group was operating. Iranian authorities said that the group was allegedly preparing an attack and that its location had been established through intelligence information. During the shootout, according to Maariv, five members of the group were killed and several others were detained. The affiliation and identities of the armed individuals have not been established. Iranian authorities called them "terrorists" without naming a specific organization; no group has claimed responsibility for the clash. https://ua.news/en/world/komandir-kvir-zaginuv-u-sutichtsi-na-pivdennomu-skhodi-iranu-jerusalem-post |

So... I find comfort in the fact that if Trump has to work so hard to go to Heaven, then there is a shit load of Democrats that have no f-cking chance to go anywhere but HELL. Sometimes it is entirely appropriate to kill a fly with a sledge-hammer.

Liberals are a curious mix of communism and fascism, they want to destroy you but want to use your own money to do it.

It's equally likely they killed/captured nobody or just attacked some nearby civilians because they were convenient. You're never going to hear a report from those fucks saying "they got us good and we have nothing to show for it, better luck next time I guess". How many U.S. jets and ships have they claimed to take out since the start of all this? How many vital targets have they reported "totally destroyed"? |
Everything posted above is factual. Maybe.

Ding ding ding. This is likely what actually happened. Never believe the headlines.. |

I love a good double entendre.
