"We believe that Iran is connected to this," Vice Admiral Kevin Donegan said.

  2. Anon,

    So they kill each other? So what!

    Some will die and some will flee.


    In the place of origin they will repopulate.

    Those that flee will populate here.

    Rinse Repeat.

    Those that flee will consciously bring with them that which they fled.
