Local intelligence likely provided information to the US regarding Soleimani.

Continuing to knock off some of Soleimani's legacy:

"...An airstrike in eastern Syria killed eight fighters from Iraq’s Iran-backed Hashed al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilization Force) militia overnight, a monitoring group said Friday.

“Unidentified aircraft targeted vehicles and arms depots in the Albu Kamal area, causing a large explosion. At least eight Iraqi Hashed fighters were killed,” said Rami Abdel Rahman, the head of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

Israel reportedly believed the base, which was overseen by Soleimani’s Quds Force, was a key element in Tehran’s effort to develop a so-called “land bridge” that would allow the Islamic Republic to easily move weapons, fighters, and war materiel from Iran through Iraq, Syria and Lebanon

Saw a great line on Facebook.

"Before we drop the army into Iran, lets drop all the meth heads in there first.
Be hard for them to fight back if all their shit is stolen"

The link between this and Trump’s little game of chicken seems undeniable. Obviously the Iranians got spooked, just like the rebels in Donetsk a few years ago. They bear responsibility, but in the bigger picture this was the kind of mistake that can happen when countries are on the verge of exchanging missiles and nerves are on edge: 176 corpses, collateral damage in someone else’s war game.

The military apologised for downing the plane, saying it would upgrade its systems to prevent such "mistakes" in the future. It added that those responsible would be held accountable and prosecuted.


Translation, some poor grunt will be made an example of and killed, his family will be screwed and the bloke who ordered the button to be pushed gets a promotion.

Very similar to Western armies

c'mon David, babylon bee is a satirical news site, not real news.

You know, like the Betoota Advocate, The Onion and The Guardian. Razz Wink
