US may have killed Quds Force Commander Qasem Soleimani

[RavinDave]

So from what I've gathered, the US killed someone today that was labeled as the head of a terrorist organization back in April by the State Department. This same person was also responsible for helping Shia militias in Iraq fight ISIS. And he has ties to supposed terrorist movements in Lebanon and Palestine. No proof of that last sentence, just what Trump and friends are claiming.
So who is going to bring the white board out and explain this? Seems like a cluster ****, as usual.

Karl Rove.

Wonder if the Kurds will have our back on this one.

The table has been flipped over and everyone is trying to figure out where their chess pieces were on the board. We are in uncharted territory.

Sort of....but only because the bad guys finally know they're agin a player that will end them before the board is even reset. Uncharted territory is true but not the way you're implying.

I do believe the Mullahs are a bit unsettled right now. Trump just turned their calculus inside out.

Trumps two major shows of force was in Syria and Afghanistan, how has that turned out? You have the worst case of TDS ever.

So what was an Iranian Military Leader doing in Iraq in the first damn place? Was his presence requested by the Iraqi government for some reason? I’m gonna go out on a limb and speculate we didn’t request he be in Iraq

 

[hjeagle1vol]

Good grief.

Why? You think this CiC is the same as the rest of the establishment of war for the past 20 years? You're wrong if that's where you want to make your stand.

He was running the Embassy op. It was a bad decision!

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

So.......why was he in Obama's Office........what were they talking about........more freed up time to buy them off ?

LOL..............that's a good one..........Epstein didn't kill himself either.

The Iranian military has been in Iraq for about 4 years. They have a bilateral agreement.

Iraq invited this guy in? If so then why aren’t they condemning this attack?

Pretty damn stupid of him to be in an exposed position like that. Oh well

I'm going to copy the Red Hats for a minute and respond in kind.

Because they are stuck between a rock and a hard place and have no idea what to do.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

I'm sure all of this had the full backing from Obozo John Kerry John Brennan and the Hildabeast ?

Happy New Year Iran....

 

[marcusluvsvols]

This is what the geographically illiterate don’t understand. Iran’s military is clearly superior to that of Iraq, but Iran is a large country that sits on a plateau filled with rough terrain and mountains. What is the end goal exactly?

Why would we ever try to engage a ground war with Iran??? That's for you too Carlos

Trump hasnt once tried to nation build or conquer a country. He has been REPEATEDLY provoked by Iran...and kept a cool head.

Our objective with Iran is the same it has been for decades.

Stop their terrorist activities.

Do not under any circumstances allow them to get nuclear weapons.

The Iranian people will have to oust the oppressive Mullahs themselves. Trump isnt stupid enough to put boots on the ground in Iran and try to conquer them...espc in an election year....

If and when they respond and attack us or Israel you can count on another "bombs over Baghdad" shock and awe show of overwhelming air attacks....tomahawk cruise missiles by the hundreds followed by stealth attacks after the SAM sites are gone.

Good job US and Israel...the most successful terrorist on Earth is dead. Iran can feel the wrath of a thousand tomahawks if they want it. Carrier battle groups are already in range.

It's like Clint Eastwood ( William Munny ) said in the movie "Unforgiven" when the bartender said "you shot an unarmed man."
Eastwood said "he should have armed himself."

Truth in that and it cuts both ways.

We're out of both quagmire's and pawned them off. Good by me.
Now I'm hoping and praying these Mullah's make that final mistake and he can send the ultimate message to the rest of them.
