Earlier this week Iranian backed militia killed two US soldiers and a female UK soldier at Taji military base in Iraq.
Last night the US responded killing at least 18 militia members in Iraq including Iranian Revolutionary Guard commander General Siamand Mashhadani.

It would be far more encouraging to hear an end of it than this never-ending back and forth.

He was working with the millitants that bombed our guys and him dying at their place proves he was working with this terrorist group. Iranian generals are not that smart, they are overconfident in their beliefs that they can get away with anything.

I guess they will continue to lose major players in their military then.

And as with any developed military there will be others equally adept to fill those places , it's a game of military whack a mole with no resolution in sight , the only outcome is just more of the same.
So your advice is to do nothing after they kill our brave soldiers? I suppose if we don’t retaliate after they kill our people they’ll never bother us again. Sounds realistic. They really respect pacifism and turning the other cheek in that part of the world.
