Three out of five missiles hit their target at the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad

January 27 2020 72

The US Embassy in Baghdad was rocket fired. At least three unguided missiles fell on the territory of the diplomatic mission located in the most protected area of the Iraqi capital at night.

From Baghdad, there are reports that 5 people were injured.

One of the rockets, according to Iraqi sources of information, exploded in a restaurant at the American embassy. At the same time, victims were avoided in this case, since there was no one else in the room.

Recall that the previous shelling was carried out on January 20. But then the missiles did not fly directly to the building of the US Embassy.
It is known that, after rocket fire, military helicopters of the US Air Force began to evacuate diplomatic mission personnel. The wounded were sent to one of the hospitals.

According to Iraqi media, a total of five missiles were fired at the US Embassy. The goals, as already noted, reached three of them. Two exploded on the territory, one damaged the building.

According to the American media, the shelling was “probably carried out by pro-Iranian forces in Iraq, including the Shiite armed groups Al-Hashd al-Shaabi.” Recall that earlier, the Americans, having inflicted a targeted attack on Baghdad’s airport, killed the leader Shiite police Al-Muhandisa along with Iranian General Suleymani.

  That's the continuation ... the second shelling of the week, this time - hit!
  Against the backdrop of thousands of rallies against the American presence in Iraq, I think shelling will occur more and more often.
  It’s time to evacuate the Embassy, at least ordinary staff and family members of diplomats.
  There was no need to kill Suleymani and Al Muhandis - they get what they themselves sowed.

    American media reports that the shelling "was probably initiated by pro-Iranian forces in Iraq
    
    And they don’t think that the shelling was carried out only by anti-occupational forces in Iraq? Or anti-American? Striped got everyone on this planet already ..

      There were. About 150 years after the events of this film, Baghdad will be taken by the Mongols and almost completely cut out - about a million people. This meant the end of the Caliphate of the Abbasids and, in general, the end of the golden age of Islam.
      It all ended badly.

        In the word Mongola, the letter N is superfluous, MOGOL is translated as great. And those Mongols in modern Mongolia, that they had Genghis Khan and the Great Empire only learned from the newcomers from Europe at the beginning of the 20th century. The word Khan meant a military leader of the level of a general, the word Genghis meant great. This is not a name, this is a position, there were many Genghis-khans, only one remained in history under this name. In general, the whole history before the 15th century is "sewn with white thread" and does not withstand the simplest analysis for reliability. For the sake of interest, you can read "Military-historical jokes" by Georgy Kostylev, there is a small analysis of the military aspects of official history. Its complete impossibility.

        What is wrong with you - read about the Mongolian Middle East campaign under the command of Hulagu, at the same time repeat the geography and history of the Mongol Empire, whose territory in the era of its heyday was at least comparable to the territory of our country. And if you have questions about HOW such a "small" country like Mongolia could conquer such territories, then read at the same time about the principles of the formation of the then medieval armies, logistics and supplies. You will understand why the Mongols, who actually had the entire nation under arms, were equestrian and had unlimited mobility on flat terrain, could very easily and naturally crush the same Russia, which could put together only 6 thousand horsemen, this were extremely limited in mobility by their logistics.
        I also recommend to listen to what the historian Klim Zhukov says about this, then decide for yourself. is it worth believing people who say about "a lot of Genghis Khans" ...

  There is news about 4 hits
  
  Iraqi people's avengers again shelled the building of the occupying US embassy in Baghdad.
  This time, 5 unguided rockets were fired, 4 of which fell on the territory of the "Green Zone", and one fell on the territory of the embassy, damaging the restaurant and the dining room, which burned down as a result of the fire. No personnel or security casualties were reported.
  After several attempts to target the US Embassy, they finally started to hit. As previously noted by the Shiite leaders of Iraq, if the United States does not leave for good, they reserve the right to take all necessary measures to ensure that US troops leave vertically or horizontally.
  
  In parallel with the shelling of the embassy, clashes took place in Baghdad https://twitter.com/Navid2019/status/1221523634088337412 security forces with protesters opposing the government, which drives the Americans and concludes agreements with the Chinese.
  Obviously, the struggle between Iran and the United States on the territory of Iraq will develop towards further escalation, where Iran will traditionally act with the wrong hands, and the United States will try to overthrow the government so uncomfortable for them in their usual manner.
  
  In the US, the news faded into the background due to the death of the famous basketball player Kobe Bryant, who crashed during a helicopter crash.

    Well, finally we took aim! You can't put a Patriot in the American embassy ... and you can't hide the death of diplomats from the public. How can you hide the death of US Army soldiers, if sometimes they are not even citizens, but serve to obtain citizenship.
    And it seems that this is only a warm-up. Now they will begin to shell the bases and mine roads to them.
    It's good .
    That's right - in war as in war.
    After all, you were asked to clean up kindly?
    On health?
    And now it is necessary with shame and losses.
    Iran clearly went to aggravation, sensing that the United States was not ready for war, that Trump’s war was not beneficial for internal political reasons ... that means it was beneficial to Iran ... And China, which now needs to get even a coronovirus ... of course with the wrong hands .. .
    So the matter nevertheless goes to war.
    And that means high oil prices.
    It's good .
    This is useful for the Russian budget.
    After all, after the adoption of the amendments to the Constitution, no "budget rule" will be in effect. All to the treasury and to the needs of the state!
    And enterprises that previously came under the control of American corporations (Rusal for example) can be nationalized.
    And pay for the block of shares by the US Treasury obligations of the Fed.
    Well, do not feed the enemy with real money?
    
    The US Deep State, in a panic over an unprofitable deal with China, now wants to urgently improve relations with Russia! coup in Kiev! They did not recognize the Crimean referendum! And they piled sanctions on Russia !!! Moreover, they were expelled from the GXNUMX!
    An unprecedented thing - they want to start negotiations with Putin on the world order, recognize Crimea and lift the sanctions ... True, they offer UN peacekeepers to Donbass ... well, this is unlikely to fail.
    And all for the sake of Russia not entering into a military-political alliance with China.
    So the war between Iran and the United States is only in our hands - it weakens the position of the United States, makes it more accommodating, clears the brains ... after each successful missile salvo of Iran and every Chinese ship launched.
    
    And what if Iraqi guerrillas instead of modest home-made missiles drag Gollans?
    They can !
    Then perhaps only funnels will remain from the American embassy. ... big and deep.
    
    So let’s drink for mutual understanding, humanism and world peace!
    
    And for the firm hand and faithful eye of Iraqi partisans!

        Yes, you know, probably there is no sense at this stage to monitor personnel changes. The government of Mishustin was appointed under the old Constitution. Therefore, we can assume that it is temporary. In April, when the new Constitution is adopted, the government of Mishustin will resign. Under the new Constitution, the old Duma, possibly before May 9, will approve the new government.
        But that is not all. In September this year will be a single voting day in Russia, and in November, the election of Trump USA.

        There is another side to the embargo. This is the inadmissibility of arms exports from Iran.
        There was a statement from Ryabkov that there could be no question of extending it. I want to believe that it will be so.
        the United States and Israel will have to do something no later than this summer ... And without "neutrality" Russia will hardly dare to do this.

  The Americans killed Soleimani because he was responsible to China for creating a "Shiite corridor" for the Silk Road - from Afghanistan to Syria and Lebanon. The Chinese are on this from 30 to 50 billion dollars. singled out ... so the Americans and broke ... especially when they realized that they were losing the trade war with China ... lost - a new trade agreement was signed in the interests of China, it is in profit ... and the United States got a crust ... but British financial elites are not taken into account at all - the Rothschilds flew by, and this is a shame ...
  And now, among other offenses, there is a response for the "coronavirus" that hit China - they raised the army in a gun, they thwarted the Chinese New Year ... ... it is an insult and direct aggression against China.
  ... And this is not bad at all for Russia.
  In such a mess with Russia, it's not like quarreling ... misunderstandings are dangerous - a golden share and non-involvement in their mutual relations ...
  So the CIA unexpectedly - unexpectedly published incriminating evidence on Bandera. How so ? He is a hero of Ukraine !?
  And Putin, meanwhile, is opening a memorial to the victims of the "Holocaust" and a memorial to the victims of the Leningrad Blockade there ... As the most honored guest ...
  The first word to him ...
  And a statement from the same rostrum about the need for a meeting of the heads of the "Big Five" to establish the rules of the new World Order.
  And a little later, the US Deep State comes up with the same proposal with almost the same proposal - to meet Trump and Putin to establish the rules of the world order. They suggest recognizing Crimea as Russian, condemning the Maidan (!), Lifting all (!) Sanctions, and even (drum roll!) Returning to the "Big Eight".
  Your deeds are wonderful, Lord ...
  
  And in such a funny situation, what can you wish for?
  Iraq of course ...
  More missiles - good and different, for Iraqi partisans!
  True eye, hard hand and inexhaustible ammunition.
  And high oil prices!
  Fire !

  What are the actions of the Americans? ... the Americans still will not be able to stop the bombardment from pissed admirers of Suleimani in a million Baghdad.

    The Americans cannot react immediately, the exchange may not end in their favor. The next time, before a missile salvo, there may not be a warning about it, just as there was none about this shelling of the embassy.
    But they are still preparing. They need several months to prepare, but by the summer they will be ready and then ... Trump can decide on a war only if it is quick and victorious. And a prerequisite is the neutrality of Russia. Otherwise, disaster and the loss of the states of the entire Middle East.
    In the meantime, peaceful and indignant Iraqis are storming the American embassy in the best traditions of medieval tactics - they are knocking out armored double-glazed windows in checkpoint windows with a ram.
    The voice of the people is the voice of God ... the universal ancient wisdom says ... and Chinese money has nothing to do with it.

      And further . Perhaps war cannot be avoided because Iran resumed uranium enrichment and no later than in a year (or a couple of weeks) it will have a bomb.
      And in October, the UN arms embargo for Iran expires and then ... it will dramatically increase and improve its military potential. Contracts for tens of billions of dollars have been prepared / signed long ago and are most likely to be fulfilled ... therefore deliveries can begin immediately (!) In October! It is possible that pilots and calculations for other military equipment have long been prepared \ ready ... because the embago is only for ... delivery
      Therefore, the United States and Israel have time only until October.
      Indeed, the announced phrase "It will be fun and scary" becomes the hashtag (brrr, what word) of the year.
      .... And Russia's restrained reaction to everything coming ... still needs to be earned ...
      Let's put it this way: Crimea, Donbass and Nord Stream-2 could become a kind of ... advance ... for gaining Russian restraint. But only (!) In advance.
      And Russia's incontinence ... even the most restrained ... can be very expensive ... It can cost almost everything that remains and what it so values ... value ... the United States of America.

Perhaps this is a step towards the Vietnamization of Iraq. The scheme of a general anti-American uprising is hardly possible. But the gradual increase in resistance to occupation and partisan operations against the forces of the American coalition are quite in trend.
I believe Iran, and Russia and China, would not mind starting a proxy war in Iraq.

Have you finally got there? Or are they simply escalating the threat gradually, giving time to "get away"? I suppose, if they begin to fire massively, but from mortars (as in Damascus, Russian), the nerves of the amers will not stand ...

That's the continuation ... the second shelling of the week, this time - hit!
Against the backdrop of thousands of rallies against the American presence in Iraq, I think shelling will occur more and more often.
It’s time to evacuate the Embassy, at least ordinary staff and family members of diplomats.
There was no need to kill Suleymani and Al Muhandis - they get what they themselves sowed.

Well, here we have shot, now the "packages" are getting fat.

The US embassy in Baghdad was rocket fired.

This is apparently such a "thick" hint, like "shouldn't you get out of here."
Since they do not want to leave the country on a “good” basis, they decided to send them out with kicks “under the tail with the knee”.

According to the idea, this is the most effective tactic, they fired at, scattered, dissolve in the crowd. Such partisan actions can only force the carriers of democracy to leave, well, there is still mining of roads, etc., as it should be in a partisan war. But, the fact is that the Americans have been in Iraq for a long time, and they clearly have their own informant, but as the known Leader used to say: "no man, no problem."
In short, a couple of anti-diversion detachments of the same mattresses, they will quickly liquidate partisan detachments, or they will launch the machine and make a mess of who needs it, those who do not agree to sell, look above.
If only this will take on a nationwide character, then yes, any f * cking people will have to leave Iraq, it is unrealistic to fight all nations, just like to buy.
