It appears that Iranian proxies initiated a missile attack on a facility used by US forces in Iraq.

Baghdad — At least 10 rockets targeted a military base in western Iraq that hosts about 2,000 U.S. troops on Wednesday, American and Iraqi military officials said. A U.S. defense official told CBS News national security correspondent David Martin there were no reported casualties among U.S. or coalition troops, but one American civilian contractor, who had taken cover in a bunker on the base, died of a heart attack during the rocket strike.

Is Biden going to be making the decision as to how to respond? It's also going to be interesting to see how the media reports on this

Apparently one American contractor died of a heart attack during the attack. I bet that "Heart Attack" gets him a closed casket funeral.

When you automatically think your government is lying to you the there is a problem and that problem is with the government.

Figures they are going to test Biden.

Note Iran demands sanctions are lifted before they even negotiate a new Nuclear Deal. That is stupid as lifting sanctions is our card to play in such negotiations.

Even if he died of a Heart Attack that means Murder, Insurrection!

Iran must have been trying to Take Over our Base!

I demand hearings and a full investigation of this violent assault on America..............

It's kind of odd that this is not getting much coverage from the media. During past eras the media would be pontificating endlessly about what the president might do, should do or not do.
