American troops stationed at the base are helping to counter ISIS and train Iraqi security forces. No Iraqi troops were hurt in the attack.

After days of anticipation, Tehran's zero-casualty retaliation came as a relief to many. At al-Asad camp, troops could rest easy after days of heightened alert. For countries across the region, it marked a welcome climbdown after the killing of Soleimani raised the specter of region-wide war.

CNN journalists were the first to be granted access to the base after the Iranian attack.

Hardly the work of a "dictator".

But this is like any post about the Democratic candidates ... it gets derailed very quickly into a screed about Trump.
YOU tend to derail any foreign policy discussion into YOUR fixation, which is RUSSIA!!!

SEOND: Signym, if Putin is still in government after 2024, you will have been proved wrong about what is happening.

—and it was said that this is likely to be done, following discussion— there will be significant changes not only to a variety of constitution articles, but also to the balance of power, namely to the executive, legislative and judicial branches of power,” Medvedev said. “In this context, it is evident that we, as the government of the Russian Federation, should provide our country’s president with an opportunity to take all the necessary decisions in these conditions. [To change the balance of power, supposedly to the Duma] I believe it right for the government of the Russian Federation to step down in conformity with Article 117 of Russia’s Constitution,”

It's called sources Jack. Trump himself held a press conference with the pentagon standing behind him. What did he say? No Americans harmed in the attack. Maybe Jack, CNN was sourcing the president when they said no troops injured. Then Jack, they found out later he lied. Pay attention Jack…

SIX: Newsflash. This didn't start with Trump.

You all had a huge problem when GWB was doing it (I remember, because I was right there with you), but nobody gave a shit when Obama did it. And now we're pretending that it all started when Trump was elected.

Good to see that Congress might actually be taking its balls back though.
