6 missiles fired at Qatar. No word on the other base.

Reports of 3 impacts on military base Al-Udeid.

Scud warfare 2.0

No casualties reported since the base was already evacuated.

My guess is these are "strategic misses" by Iran. It wants to be seen as responding, but in reality, not much damage is done. We've seen it before after Trump took out that Iranian dude during his last term.

Yep. Trying to save face.

Oil prices are dropping becauss of the weak response from Iran.... So much for $150 crude oil prices many were predicting.

All of these tin pot dictator countries suck when it comes to real war.

So this is just another nothing burger from Iran. *snorts* Well, at least they won't be able to develop a nuclear weapon for several years now. Thank God for that.

Exactly. All the aircraft there and other stuff were already moved a couple of weeks ago. Let them bluster about it and then lets see if they will come to the table.

from NYT:

Exxon price down over $2 today.

All 3 markets well up.

someone was telling me that the bases were targeted, I told her that that's not news, they've done it before.

The Iranians are just trying to save face otherwise the world would think they are weak, but now they are (weak) after the last few days. They're running out of missiles for one.

I wonder if Trump will just let them get it out of their system since all missiles were intercepted and no one was hurt, as far as we know.

The left's dream of death to America and Israel were just dashed to pieces.

Or probe defenses. While acting like they were saving face. Information is king.
