What!?!? We can't just randomly fire on other nations without them retaliating? Outrageous!

How could the Iranian's do such a thing! Won’t someone please think of poor Israel who shot first, or the idiotic American president who just wants to drop a nuke to satisfy his ego.
Butbutbut... Trump said NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!!!! How can this be???
Do Israel and Iran realize how bad this looks for Trump? Did they think about him at all? Did they even say thank you?

Sned in the Kardashian with the Pepsi can
I'm so old I read this as something about Mortimer Snerd being in the Kardashian clan. I've always seen the resemblance. https://images.app.goo.gl/2TgrbwrBvmeiihWv5
Reports indicate it was a muted response to indicate an intention to deescalate. They had to do something but they didn't go crazy. We'll see, I guess.
I'm pretty sure we will find out...in about 15 years when the big budget all starred Hollywood ~~propaganda~~ movie comes out.
I heard they fired six missiles - the same amount the US used - intentionally. Targeted non-civilian locations. Weren’t complete dicks about it.
Same thing when trump assassinated soleimani. They rattle a saber a little bit and call it even. Trump announced a ceasefire agreement 3 hours ago so it looks like business as usual.
Evidently it's an imaginary ceasefire agreement and nobody even asked Iran, so... We'll see. The token retaliation suggests they aren't trying to escalate with the US specifically.
I was told we didn't start a war.
Oh right uh...hang on...it's just like....hostilities?
I heard it was a special military operation, only meant to last 3 days.
So far, reports state “fired at” but come up short of saying “hit”.
Sounds like air defenses may have intercepted all of them? At least to the extent we can trust reporting at this stage.
ngl, it’d be more satisfying to read about a successful counterstrike…
