Exclusive: US investigation points to likely US responsibility in Iran school strike, sources say U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school that killed scores of children on Saturday but have not yet reache...

“If a U.S. role were to be confirmed, the strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the ​Middle East.” www.reuters.com/world/middle...

This is amazing. The Falklands were literally uninhabited until the French, British, and Spanish showed up in the 1760s. They were the original inhabitants.

That’s possible

Yes, an Iraqi parliamentarian who would have no way to know, unless through one government or the other privately acknowledging it. I think there are a lot of assumptions being made by anyone who claims to know whether these were US or Israelis.

I don’t see how the Iraqis would know which it is, other than by one government or the other telling them. But again, I struggle to understand what need US forces would have to be operating in the Iraqi desert, whereas what the Israelis would be doing is easy to imagine.

It would be doubly strange for US forces to be setting up sites in Anbar (the related Rutba landing claim) right now given we just finished finally pulling out of al-Asad a month ago, which again makes me think IDF SOF supporting their strike campaign, but who knows.

…targeting of PMF in Jurf as-Sakhr, which is quite nearby, but I don’t see why there would need to be SOF on the ground in the area for that. US has done strikes against PMF in Jurf as-Sakhr plenty of times in recent years without any indication of that. bsky.app/profile/wesl...

I just can’t really see what similar need US forces would have for a desert encampment in Iraq as part of this war given we have actual bases in Irbil and the Gulf to launch things like HIMARS from (which the Israelis don’t). Conceivable it could be something to do with the current aerial…

I don’t know whether it’s US SOF vs Israeli SOF, but the latter makes more sense to me—Israeli SOF set up FARPs or rocket launch points in the Iraqi desert during the 12-Day War last June

Analysis Suggests School Was Hit Amid U.S. Strikes on Iranian Naval Base

Official statements placing U.S. forces in the area – along w/ analysis of social posts, videos, sat. images – suggest U.S. forces bombed a school in Minab, Iran during strikes targeting an IRGC base. Over 150 were killed, Iranian officials say. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/w...

Easy solution: just send Eric Adams. (Has anyone heard from him since the war started? Hasn’t he been spending a lot of time in Dubai and Abu Dhabi?)

Previously the IDF has issued only much narrower evacuation orders for urban areas of Lebanon (specific buildings or blocks).

Now, as it did in Gaza, it’s telling people they need to get out of whole neighborhoods of suburban Beirut, as well as the entirety of southern Lebanon south of the Litani.

No, it’s worse.

It’s a war without a political objective.

Plenty of wars have opened without a clear plan to reconcile desired ends with available means, we may be the first country to go to war without even a basic concept of victory.

War for the memes. War for the vibes. War for the Warriors.

Meanwhile Iraqi government forces are also out there searching for and finding rocket launchers that Iranian-backed Iraqi militias set up to fire into Kuwait and Saudi Arabia

Iraq’s Joint Operations Command confirms that an Iraqi soldier was killed in an air strike and three others wounded when their Karbala-based unit approached whatever this force in the desert between Karbala and Najaf is (Israeli or US)

There were also strikes in Jurf as-Sakhr, another militia hub in Iraq, on Saturday morning, the first day of strikes on Iran

Either US or Israel is conducting air strikes inside Iraq against Iranian-backed Shiite militia groups

Would be far from the first time US has done this (most recent was a series of such strikes in Nov 2023-Feb 2024) but curious whether Iraqi government got prior notice this time

…or the first one I suppose, depending on what qualifies as a boner-killer for them

lol I don’t think all the people who are following believe she’s real. They just see pictures like that second one and believe they can really jerk off to it

What is?

This was near Najaf

Hard to imagine how that’s related to any Kurdish groups given the location (near Najaf)

NEW: A source from the Iranian Kurdish group Komala denies reports that it launched a ground offensive into western Iran.
