No iron clad proof of course.
Guess we’ll have to wait 10 years for the biography and senate hearings…. But given the leaks coming out of the WH from a few apparent adults who have escaped detection, it’s not hard to imagine it being relatively accurate
The rest of you check back with us in 2035 or so
It does seem a bit late for a strategy discussion though…maybe just me

So far seeing multiple reports from same trusted sources 
I’m sure they lie but not quite as much as CENTCOM

There is a reason they have blocked satellite images to the public. If there are more jets than the hardened shelters, then those are going to be parked in the open and Jordan ain't gone make space in their own hangar/hardened shelter for any foreign aircraft at the expense of their own aircraft.Let's hope the IRGC is lying about this.
It wasn't long ago the US was the hottest country... you know what I mean... dudes?, we will recover?

There are new reports Friday of more US troop pullback initiatives in the wake of the last couple weeks of US-Iran fighting, and Iranian ballistic missile and drone strikes which have targeted American bases with increased regularity, especially in Jordan and Kuwait.
One regional media publication freshly reports, "The United States military has started to draw down its last remaining forces from Iraq stationed in the vicinity of Erbil's airport in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region, well-placed sources with close knowledge of the process confirmed to Al-Monitor."

Significant US anti-air defenses are also being pulled back, given they and their radar systems have increasingly been targeted.
"Patriot mobile air-to-surface air-defense systems that detect and shoot down incoming missiles, drones and other airborne enemy equipment have already been removed from the military compound, the sources said, without providing further details," Al Monitor continues.
The pullback from the Iraqi Kurdistan region reportedly began last week and is still in progress, given all the heavy equipment has to be pulled out.
The missile batteries are expected to be 'redeployed' - but this could be further away from within the vicinity of Iran and the Persian Gulf, such as in Israel. Al Monitor notes:

It's not just Iran which has targeted US personnel and assets in Iraq, but Iraqi Shia paramilitary units have at times targeted Erbil facilities going back years:
Iran's strategy seems to focused on permanently pushing US forces back in the region, while expanding the scope of the war, in what some analysts have called 'horizontal escalation'.
One writer calls this a process of 'debasification':
Iraq's north has long been a place where US forces can feal more at ease with 'friendly' Kurdish groups, rather than the dwindling presence in the rest of the country. But the Kurds have also come under immense pressure within the Iraq war, especially given headlines alleging they were ready to support an Iranian Kurdish uprising inside the Islamic Republic.
