Iranian state TV says Tehran has launched "tens" of surface-to-surface missiles at an air base inside Iraq in response to America's killing of a top Iranian general.

The air base houses American troops.

More to come.

All of the troubles in Iran now go back to 1953 with the overthrow of the lawfully elected Prime Minister, Mossadeqh, and the installation of the CIA puppet Shah Reza Pahlavi. His secret police, the Savak, ran a reign of terror against the Iranian people that culminated in the 1979 student uprising and the capture of the U.S. Embassy where 52 employees and the Ambassador were held 444 days until Ronald Reagan was sworn in as President. ;)

Carter fiddled while Rome burned and I voted for him.

Then I voted for Reagan...twice.

The general backlash against Nixon was still so great that O'buckwheat might have won in '76.
