Ready for rain?

Ever notice the letters in rain anagram to IRAN? That just leapt out at me all of a sudden. Probably means nothing. Still . . . .

Recent reports (looks to be on the ground in Iraq) https://twitter.com/RudawEnglish

Multiple rockets have been launched at the US embassy in Baghdad.
They are believed to have missed the embassy, with local reports suggesting they hit an apartment complex instead and killed civilians.

It is the second night in a row that the embassy has been attacked and comes after the US killing of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani.
Iraq’s military said in a statement on Sunday that three Katyusha rockets had fallen in Baghdad; two inside the heavily fortified Green Zone and one in the nearby Jadriya area.
Six people were wounded, police sources said, with one rocket thought to have hit a family home.


The rockets hit shortly after the deadline from a hardline pro-Iran faction for local troops to get away from US forces.
The vehemently anti-American group, Kataeb Hezbollah, had warned Iraqi security forces to ‘get away’ from US troops at joint bases across Iraq by 5.00pm (1400 GMT).

Sunday’s attack marks the 14th time rockets have been fired towards US installations in Iraq over the last two months.
Yesterday, at least two rockets landed near the embassy, which is located in the security-tight Green Zone, according to Sky News Arabia.
Security at the embassy’s perimeter was stepped up after the rockets fell.
Another three rockets were fired at Balad Airbase housing American troops, about 50 miles north of the city, according to Reuters.
Of those, two Katyusha rockets fell inside the base. It’s not clear how many US troops are being house at the base.
A number of rockets also landed in the Al-Jadiriya neighborhood, according to the Iraq Army, although it is not clear if that was the intended target.
There have been no reports of injuries and it is not clear who fired the rockets.
Residents of the Iraq’s capital of Baghdad said explosions rang out inside the heavily-fortified Green Zone, home to the US Embassy and the seat of Iraq’s government.
Alert sirens were sounded Sunday in the area on the west bank of the Tigris river.

SAVAGE MIC DROP

FOX NEWS CHRIS WALLACE:

"Some analysts suggest that the impeachment of President Trump has emboldened enemies like Iran and North Korea - is this president is more vulnerable because of the impeachment effort?"

POMPEO:

"You should ask Mr. Soleimani."
