More or less the other way around, but: yes.



However, the attack there could also be some internal Shia-Sunni feud. Or sdomethign between ethnic groupos. Or clashes for influence between the Mullahs in Iran and Iraqi clerics. As I said: I speculated in the post above.

Thank you.
So a military response from US will not happen as I predict.

Who knows?

It depends on the results of their investigation. If they think it was indeed an attack on the embassy, some places in Iran have a hard time ahead of them.

According to the news here and there- these ballistic missile was against the American consulate.

Quote:
Iran has claimed responsibility for a missile barrage that struck early Sunday near a sprawling U.S. consulate complex in the northern Iraqi city of Irbil, saying it was retaliation for an Israeli strike in Syria that killed two members of its Revolutionary Guard.
