MY WINKY IS BIGGER THAN YOURS

As jeez -- we have had an incident in the Middle East ...

That is, there was a drone strike which took out an Iranian military leader (drones are very precise so less likely to get innocent civvies)

So Iranian Gen. Salami (I don't know how to spell his name, but I know how to spell 'salami')- who supposedly was planning to take out hundreds of US citizens near New Years Eve ... I'm guessing he was planning to hit Times Square - was killed during a ride to a METTING with the IRAQI head of state!!!!

Ok -- that's the scarier part to me!

Iran & Iraq have NEVER worked together in my lifetime - the short lived peace treaty of the 70s (pre-embassy hostages) even wasn't really them working together, it was just "hey let's stop bombing each other for a bit"

So everyone whipped their Winnie's out ... Iran has shot misses INTO IRAQ ... Iraq of course Blane's US for it ... <>. ... 

Saber rattling all around ... but still worrisome

The Democrats want to tie the Presidents hands ... not just Trump's, ALL future Presidents as well -- they really need to think about this.  We live in a time of Push Button Wars ... how long does it take for your soda to pop out of the machine?

While we don't want a President to be able to declare war because they're Hangry ... we also don't want them to have to order from a Soda Counter while our enemies have a modern soda machine ...

Then there was a plane that went down ... a Ukrainian Airlines flight, which was delayed for over an hour because of the attacks crashed killing all aboard - at first Ukraine was saying no terrorist attacked ... now they are saying the plane passed a routine maintainance check last week, so they aren't quite sure.
The flight never got above 5000 ft ... it crashed IN IRAN ... the Iranians are REFUSING to turn over the BLACK BOX ...  176victims - 82 Iranians & 63 Canadians, plus some other nationalities but NO americans - so, the Box HAS been RECOVERED but NOT turned over.

Flights are being re-routed to avoid the air space ... sounds to me like they are pretty sure it got hit by either a mussel or a bazooka of some sort (rocket launcher, I think they're called these days)

I will have special screen shot post which will show shots I got while this was happening
