Ah right, how could I think that any connection at all would be necessary to justify an attack a few hundred miles (I assume, tbh) away from whatever happened before this.
Deescalating attacks on American soldiers in Iraq by attacking Iranian soldiers in Syria, some real 4D chess going on I'm sure
Nah, killing Iranians is too risky. These are 'Iranian-backed Militia'. Probably Afghan, Syrian, or Iraqi. Maybe Lebanese, but unlikely.
