Seems like picture is getting clearer.

Even if it is under construction, it's still a pretty serious attack.

I think the US will do a measured retaliation in some way.

Per the WSJ, US officials said the new compound was not hit and that one of the 6 missiles fired landed more than 2 km away.

What matters is the headlines, the missiles may not have hit any meaningful target but that wont stop the mullahs from claiming otherwise, why pay the full cost when you can claim victory for a quarter of that.

Like the Turks to the north, the neighbors from the East have committed what can only be deemed a declaration of war under normal circumstances, the motives and targets are irrelevant.

The process to neutralize IRGC presence in the country will continue, this will only accelerate it.

What a waste of missiles. Hit imaginary Mossad compound at Erbil airport, lol. Should give missiles to Hamas instead so we see them in action against Israel.

Barking at the Iranian majoosi yahoodi rawafid but you want their weapons??!

If this was truly an attack by Iran, I’d expect significant US retaliation. Very dangerous moment for Iran right now.

You can sit on it and Rotate.

Just like Russia-Ukraine situation, Iran can't tolerate NATO forces in neighbouring countries/south-East Asia, Central Asia, Caucasus, up to mediterranean. This is not considered interfering in neighbouring countries. The neighbouring countries should not expect Iran to deliver enemy forces flowers. They can work with Iran to throw them out or become a place where differences are settled.

Are flash dots may be mossad centers being hit..

@F-22Raptor
What does this remind you of?

Hey, your patriots were sitting ducks.

You can always count on US to downplay the severity of any missile attacks and that is certainly the case here. State Dept will issue its typical statements to stay calm in light of the fact that really any US officials who are still in Iraq are essentially living on borrowed time.

Expect to see some pictures released shortly of catastrophic damage to US interests in northern Iraq.

A lot of people are not realizing that the existing US consulate in Erbil was not the one hit, the one that was hit by the missile attack was over 8 miles from the city center, it is the new US consulate on the outskirts of Erbil under construction. It is unclear if the new consulate itself was spared by the Iranians but there are indications several compounds that were immediately around it were completely destroyed while others in the near vicinity sustained catastrophic damage.

Unconfirmed reports that the missiles missed the target

The intended target may have been Kurdish TV station or a political party head office. These fell some 4 to 6 km away.
