      Keep on getting interesting updates on tv but I don’t know how much confirmation there is but the latest is a rocket barrage was launched from western Iran and the missiles exploded within seconds of leaving the launchers.

      Interesting. Gives one pause.

        No, we keep getting messages from the powers that be, that there is still a big danger of ballistic missiles. Not to be euphoric.

              Yeah, my guess is much of the delay is rebuilding a command structure and assessing what’s not been destroyed.

                Dig out all the problems. When all this is over Israel should donate a bunch of camels and lots of sheep and let them go back to the people they really are.

                          The Iranians are claiming they struck with precision. I rather doubt that.

                              Yeah, but hitting a city is hardly precision.

                                  I heard a few booms but far off. Now a lull so im out with the dog. Last thing I need is the dog peeing in the shelter.

                                    So to sum up. Nine places where there were impacts. No serious injuries reported. Some scratches from flying glass.

                                      Definitely not first world problems.

                                      I wonder how many missiles they fired.

                                        They are saying 200.

                                        Injured now reported at twenty.

                                          I've been glued to NYT as they do updates every few minutes. they did not say anything about the extent of Iran's response.
