Multiple Missiles Strike Base That Houses U.S. Troops, Hit Near American Embassy In Baghdad
The death of Iranian terrorist Qasem Soleimani has American liberals thinking President Trump just lead the United States into another war – even WWIII, some will suggest. But as POTUS noted on Friday night in Miami, he took action to prevent a war and not to start one.
Soleimani was up to some funky stuff, as he has been for decades. Trump wasn’t about to sit around and wait for something awful to happen. He’s a proactive leader. Both Dubya and Obama had the chance to take Soleimani out years ago and passed.
Here’s what happened on Saturday afternoon near the U.S. embassy in Iraq, via Daily Wire:
Multiple rockets hit a military base in Iraq on Saturday where U.S. troops are stationed while mortars were fired at a high-security facility that houses the U.S. Embassy, according to multiple reports.
Reuters reported, “Several rockets fell on Saturday inside Baghdad’s heavily fortified Green Zone, its Jadriya neighborhood, and the Balad air base housing U.S. troops.”

From Texas conservative Rep. Dan Crenshaw…
At what point does America disrupt the continued escalation in violence from the Iranian regime? Where is the red line?
