US strikes 5 Iranian Al Qods/militia bases in Syria and Iraq. Iranian casualties

DEBKAfile Exclusive:  The five targets struck by the US air force on Monday, Dec. 29, on both sides of the Syrian-Iraqi border, were centers of the Iran-supported Iraqi Kata’ib Hezbollah Shiite militia and Revolutionary Guards Al Qods – at al Qaim, Iraq and the Abu Kamal region in Syria. At least 25 were reported killed and 55 injured, including Iranian officers.

The assault came 24 hours after 30 rockets fired at the US K-1 base near Kirkuk killed an American civilian contractor and injured four US soldiers. This was the first US direct military assault on Iranian Revolutionary Guards forces. It began shortly after US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo paid a quick, unannounced visit to the US Ain al-Assad airbase with orders for the base commanders, following a decision reached in Washington that the K-1 attack by an Iranian-backed militia must not go unanswered. Pompeo flew out of Iraq shortly after his conference at Ain al-Assad airbase.

Earlier, an Iraqi interior ministry official informed Arab media of intelligence received that Al Qods chief Gen. Qassem Soleimani had ordered the Hezballah militia in Baghdad to withdraw the Iran-supplied rockets from storage and transfer them to residential areas as a means of deterring a US attack. The militia was also told to reserve those rockets exclusively for use against US forces. This disclosure strongly indicated that the Hezballah militia was in the direct sights of the impending US assault.

        @Reza… Tell Iran to stay out of Mideast Exporting & Supporting Kata’ib Hizballah & IRGC Al Qods. Hiding Rockets in Residential Neighborhoods will just bring Death & Destruction on Iran Neighborhoods as well. Iran Shiia caused these problems & others will solve them by going after IRGC Shiia terror anywhere!

          The terrorist was the one who invaded Lebanon in 1982 and occupied his lands, as he occupied Palestine since 1948 .. The terrorist is the one who seeks to destroy any people who stand before his ambitions “from the sea to the river” .. Is not it? The terrorist is the one who has nuclear heads in his pocket and claims that he is peaceful and vulnerable ..The terrorist is the one who says Iraqi oil and Syria is in my hand to do whatever I want.

          Now it is the turn of the oppressed to take revenge on the oppressor … and the coming days and years will see the demise of the colonial states .. They have no place among the honorable

            Hey anonymous, Israel was asked to come in and clean out southern Lebanon in ’82. Then asked to stay to give peace a chance in the south. There was some mission creep but the Phlange asked for some help dealing with Beirut.

Ahh perhaps they are the greatest nation and people blessed by God, they seem to be able to with stand all the terrorists that those other VIOLENT nations send. They want to be Israel because they have screwed up their own nations and they are jealous of the peaceful Israel.

            During all of the wars launched against Israel by her neighbors, how many Arab capitals have had nuclear bombs dropped on them ???

            The land of Israel has belonged to the Jewish people for well over 3000 years, long before it was invaded by Mohammad’s armies during the 7 th. Century CE.

    Revenge doesn’t generally make for good policy. You define your self interest and pursue while keeping your strategic view paramount.

    Attacking Iranian targets in Syria and Iraq is strategically advisable because it affords an opportunity to defeat them in detail in a way you could not if attacking into Iran. But it would be most effective if it were sustained rather than just one set of attacks.

Hit them where it will hurt; if anyone thinks that hitting the Iranian Shiite militias in Syria and Iraq are going to stop Iran; then they lack the ability to think multi dimensionally.

    All Iran or one of their proxies need to do to get even is teach the Black Hebrews in the US how to make truck , car and vest bombs for crowds etc. Park a small 5ton truck next to a Jewish apartment building or business. Boom and the building comes down and no insurance payout because it terror related. A few of those a week across the States will achieve far more than any military retaliation
