US struck Iranian military computers

It was a $120m piece of equipment, and...so tell us how many Iranian lives is that worth?

Trump said if was manned it would have been a different story, but that makes no difference to you?

How many lives have been lost in Libya, Syria and Yemen while US looked the other way?

That 150 lives were at stake was the lamest excuse.


Besides, collateral is not an afterthought to a mission, it is the first thing you do before settling on objectives. Are you saying they withheld collateral information from Trump UNTIL he asked for it?

Trump didn't even need an excuse and the fact that the enlightenment of taking 150 lives for property damage was an unbalanced reaction and to change the plans was an honorable decision - despite the ignorance of critics.

Precisely, Trump made the decision before the mission took place. Good call :Thumbsup

I would say that Trump was rightly weighing the information as it came in and in a measure of patience made a good decision.

Wrong. Collateral are part of mission planning. Trump stopped it ‘ten minutes before’ after learning of the collateral. Is the US that incompetent to only factor in collateral late into the planning?

The General having to get an assessment of the numbers for Trump demonstrates that you are misinformed at best and I think the U.S. leadership is more competent to go about planning these missions than you, General Agent47.

They got the assessment and only shared it ten minutes to strike?
