U.S. airstrikes hit Iranian-linked militias in Iraq and Syria

Quote:

"We assess each strike hit the intended targets, and we are currently assessing the effects of the operation," Pentagon spokesperson Commander Jessica McNulty said in a statement, calling the strikes a "necessary, appropriate, and deliberate action designed to limit the risk of escalation."

"Through these and other means," McNulty said, "we seek to make clear to Iran and Iran-backed militia groups that there will be serious consequences if they continue to attack, or to arm, fund, and train militia groups that attack our people."

Iraq's Ministry of Defense, however, condemned the strikes as "a blatant and unacceptable violation of Iraqi sovereignty and Iraqi national security in accordance with international conventions."

General Yehia Rasool, spokesman for the General Commander of the Iraqi Armed Forces, issued the reaction in a series of tweets, adding that his country refused "to be an arena for settling accounts," an allusion to the long-standing tension between Iran and the U.S.

It was a joke, libtard. I don't care if I hurt your feelings. This isn't a safe space. Warning, I speak my mind and don't care how it makes you feel. I'm not here to cater to snowflakes. I gotta big truck a lotta guns and one tiny penis. No trigger warnings from me, buddy.

His finger's on the trigger. That's all the warning you get.

TIGGER WARNING!

(Not a misprint, no...)

I like a lot of what Chomsky says, but I wish people were able to ask him questions without affecting a posture like "thoughtful Philosophy post-grad."

Why don't you Chomsky on Deez nuts?

It could never live up to now, certainly.

Pure comedic genius going on here. You're welcome.

I'd rather look at a Joakim Noah free throw.

Me, I'd rather watch Joe Biden deepthroat another ice cream cone. There's something soothing about the sight of a deeply senile man doing the one thing that gives him joy...
