By Colin Kaepernick’s logic, the operation to kill the Japanese commander was racist and illegitimate. Before there was Qasem Soleimani, there was Admiral Yamamoto.
In 1943, the U.S. targeted the exceptionally skilled Japanese commander and killed him in what constituted a precision attack for the time — with the P-38G Lightnings that intercepted him midair playing the role of the MQ-9 Reaper.
If it was wrong to kill Soleimani, it was wrong to kill Yamamoto — just as barbaric and illegal, just as damnable an “assassination.”

Where Does Admiral Yamamoto Go to Get His Apology? [Soleimani]
To the nearest Democrat campaign office or the DNC if he is in town accepting an award from the ACLU.
Dear Mr. Lowry,
A declaration of war was already in place.
Go back a couple of pages in your history book.
Taking out the opponent is the objective in war.
Otherwise, you will be a corpse or a slave.
And what about the 723 muslim leaders (now nameless) assassinated via dronestrike by the last resident of the oval office? You’d have to go all the way to Hell to apologize to them.

Hey, what time is the game on?
The problem with terroristic tactics is that they generally operate outside of a wartime environment. For the SJW that means that terrorists can attack us (because that’s what they do) but we cannot attack back (because no war has been declared).
That’s just not workable.

Perfectly legitimate to disrupt command. The day of Napoleonic rules of engagement, where gentleman officers are to be untouched, is long over.
If it is racist to kill Salami, then why is it not racist to kill his soldiers?
I’m sure, given the opportunity, the Japanese would have taken out MacArthur or Halsey or Mitscher. Or Curtis LeMay. In fact they would have loved to capture one of them and publicly hang them in downtown Tokyo. We were at WAR. These lefties spouting off about Suleimane have no idea what they are talking about.
The leaders in Iran are pissing in their pants and I'll bet lil' Rocket Man, isn't sleeping too well.
The UN leeches will be condemning Trump and the USA, and he will give them a twatter finger, and they will wimper and whine, but nothing will come of it.
That worked out real well for General Reynolds at Gettysburg!
I suspect there were a bunch of us who emulated you in this.
OTOH, if we had somehow taken down Adm. Yamamoto after the sinking of the Panay and before Pearl Harbor, Lindbergh and his America-Firsters would have had a similar fit to the present leftist agony over Soulemani.
Little Rocket Man has China to back him up. Tehran has nobody.
Another NFL playoff season without Krap. Oh, the humanity.

A better example would be the taking out of Heydrich, the worst of the worst. A legit move and a net plus even after Lidice. Although I still hope Trump can minimize whatever the Iranians plan for their Lidice response. I wonder how many of the lefties criticizing Trump here are on record whining that the Allies could/should have done more against the Holocaust. Heydrich’s killing was on target for that goal.
Brings to mind that old Luther Ingram song...
“If killing you was wrong, I don’t want to be right.”
