25 Killed, 51 Injured In US Strikes On Kataib Hezbollah Positions In Syria, Iraq

At least 25 people were killed and 51 others were injured in US strikes on positions of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Units (PMU) in Syria and Iraq on December 29 evening, according to Iraqi sources.

Following the strikes, the US military issued a statement claiming that it struck positions of Kataib Hezbollah (Iranian-backed) in response to attacks on US facilities. Washington also blamed Kataib Hezbollah for the recent attack on the US military base in Iraq’s Kirkuk, which killed a US contractor and injured several US soldiers.

According to the PMU, the targeted Kataib Hezbollah forces belonged to brigades 45 and 46 of the PMU. The PMU is an official part of the Iraqi Armed Forces. Therefore, it appears that the US just conducted a strike on the military of its formal ally.

Superfly

Time to hit the KIKES!

Jacob Wohl

Mustafa Mehmet

As usual nothing Iranians got No Guts to do anything. Blah blah and more blah blah

Superfly

Mustafa Mehmet

Only filfy superfly can lick asss

Ali Alsaaidi

Correct like that zionist embassy in turkey or all the zionist tourists that visit turkey

gryzor84

Reality spoke otherwise when they took down a 230 Million-dollar Triton drone and nothing happened on the US side afterwards despite a lot of Donald’s blah blah and blah. Are you in need of some good news to forget what’s happening on the Idlib front, Mustafa ? ;-)

bob

Don’t worry they’ll be a reckoning for Iran very soon and when it happens it’ll be far more destructive than a few cruise missiles!

And it’ll be the Iranian people sick of this terrible regime of religious mad men who’ll do the job

All America has to do is sit back, turn up the maximum pressure, and wait

gryzor84

Whatever you say, bobby. That method doesn’t seem to have made wonders over the past 40 years or so, other than to starve the average Iranian further and lower the traditional sympathy that the younger generation had towards Washington, by allowing the regime to pin the blame on external factors and hide its own level of endemic corruption. But if thinking that helps you sleep better at nights, be my guest in believing so.

Retaliate? You’re joking right? Retaliate with their puny Katyusha rockets? And have the USAF neutralize another 50+ Shia terrorists? Be realistic.

Jacob Wohl

well said Mr.Herskowitz. By the way, you look exactly like a Rabbi that I knew as a kid! Still know him, great guy!

gryzor84

Boy we don’t give a shit about your life, past, present or future, so why do you tell it ? Oh, and you’re still a kid, adults don’t speak or think your way, only retards do. You can pick which one you are.

Azriel Herskowitz

Why thank you Jacob!

Fog of War

” By the way, you look exactly like a Rabbi that I knew as a kid! ”

Very true, all rats look similar.

bob

You must mean like Assad and the other assorted thick terrorists scum who skulk around in the Middle East

Fog of War

That made no sense whatsoever. Please go home and come back with something more logical.

gryzor84

they did that exactly during 8 years of insurgency that spanned the entire illegal US occupation period post-2003 in Iraq. And if they push that little game of their too far, it’ll spiral out of control as well. Same with the Vietcong in their time. In both cases, smaller losses by the US but a ruined economy and exploding debt. And a couple fanboy childishly doing some self-inflating chest pumping because they saw a couple nice bombs drop in a black & white FLIR screen. Nothing out of the ordinary. As far as I’m concerned though, I’m totally fine with both US occupiers and Shia zealots tearing as much as they want of each other apart ! Game On lol xD

roland

Those Shia zealots will play a big part in saving the world one day

roland

The world is waking up to you LOOK OUT

bob

They can’t be realistic my friend as they’re living in some sort of LaLa land in which they relentlessly feed themselves anti western/ American/ Israel kool aid

Saso Mange

The culmination of wrong political moves.

Superfly

Doin KIKES work….

Rhodium 10

Accord Iraqi shia sources 4 killed

AJ

There are lots of Iraqis who want the US out, this action will only increase those demands.

Jacob Wohl

30+ IRGC mullah proxies eliminated as well as a high ranking commander. Mazel Tov! :-]

Assad must stay (gr8rambino)

hezb cannot let this go unanswered

Jake321

Yes they can and yes they will, as usual. Islamist Iran doesn’t want them to get Iran in a devastating war with the US and Israel, etc.

bob

Way to go USA,slam dunk!!!
