people will have to decide how for they want to take this

Any poll that shows “Radioactive glass parking lot” under 70% is fake news.

Actually, President Trump allowed the military to take out a huge portion of the Quds Revolutionary Guards and the leaders of their militia in Iraq, plus the capture of 4 plus other senior leaders with close ties to Democrat politicians.

Its very possible the risk - reward equation of killing Soleimani alone was not worth the trouble, but this take down was a historic, probably once in a life time opportunity to severely cripple Irans terrorist network

The guys our military offed simply cannot be replaced by Iran and the guys they snatched know where all the bodies are buried

I agree with all that you said, but I don’t think I can let this go.

Tucker Carlson was spewing Libertarian cowardness against the taking out of the Terrorists. Done with him

Yes, I'm this >< close to going from a nightly to a never Tucker viewer.

Tucker makes sense when he exposes Dems and Socialists, but his shrill response to our plainly defensive reaction to an attack on OUR embassy is from another galaxy.

And, I don't suppose there is reasoning with him about this, I'll just record Martha and Sean and be done with Tucker.

Sorry to see him so insane about missing the big picture of National Defense.

Lets see what Iran does? They have a few choices. 1. A direct attack on one of our ships in the gulf. or a rocket or two on one of our bases in the area. 2. A use of Terrorists to hit a base in Iraq or Syria. 3. An attack on Saudi Arabia or Israel. 4. An attack on an embassy in the Middle East. 5. Terrorism on a US Plane or ship or train. 6. An assassination of a Government leader, maybe Trump himself.

This general must also have relatives who are highly placed on the boards of state owned companies in the Ukraine. There is no other way so many in the press, Media, and American politics could be so outraged otherwise?

In the past Mike Wallace covered the news with a left wing bias. Today Mike Wallace is simply a lying Son of a Bi-tch.

Trump told them that we know where they are and can get them at any time. I think they must be a tad nervous.

“I was surprised to hear Tucker Carlson”

It’s why i like and trust Tucker Carlson.

He has his positions and does not vary from them even when those positions run counter to those of his viewers or his critics. I much prefer to disagree with a cantankerous Carlson than to agree with an obsequious Hannity.

Carlson makes clear his point of view. He does not like these assassination strikes. He thinks that this was is an act of war. Similar to an assassination of the american Chief of Staff or a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. It draws us into a continuance of the middle east conflict which we’ve been backing out of for this past three years. And all of the squishy tweethating trump ‘supporters’ are knocking their knees because they’re afraid of an iranian retaliation. Those are the idiots who will vote for tulsi gabbard because it will bring peace to their media controlled worlds.

My personal opinion is that he had it coming. And the iranians need to understand that president trump is not afraid to behead the leadership of the iranian regime. This is not a warning, This is a Threat. We all know that there is no deterrent where there is no credible threat of the use of force. This is a demonstration of the use of force makes it Credible.

It does not hurt my ears to hear an opposing viewpoint.
Dont be a snowflake!

So I’m advocating for a house of pancakes new special.

There were vague reports last night of another strike that took out a few more of the top echelon of Iran’s military leadership. Iran might be having a hard time trying to find someone willing to step up. I would imagine the Ayatollah is laying low, too......

They don’t have the stones for most of those things. They will tread water and hope a rat wins in November.

Refreshing isn’t it? Seems so obvious to take clear and the decisive action when the situation calls for it.insted we have a series of squishy duplicitous CIC’s who led via focus groups. I have not been this pleased since Regan.

“Don’t kill terrorists because it will upset terrorists.” That seems to be the prevailing view - and argument- of the idiots.

May I refine that slightly?

“Don’t kill terrorists because then they may act like terrorists.” (argument of the idiots.)

I watched part of Trish Regan and then switched over to Newsmax TV tonight. I wonder if Tucker is still ranting about War.
