8. As I said in the beginning of this thread, Iran’s Supreme Leader is going to see this as a major provocation/act of war. He will respond in a significant manner.

We shouldn’t be surprised to see major cyber attacks against the US as an example

9. We shouldn’t be surprised to see the Supreme Leader order covert operations all over the globe (including, dare I say, in the US) that involve assassinations & other acts of terrorism

We should expect to see the most significant/aggressive response

10. if what I’m expecting sounds alarmist...it’s because this is a major, major event. I’m not interested in getting into whether it was the right or wrong decision but dealing with this plainly, if true, it was a major, major decision.

11. To call Qasem Soleimani just a terrorist is to understate his role significantly and that’s where the danger lies in killing him without a plan for the reaction.

He ordered and directed billions of dollars to organizations that engaged in terrorism. He is/was an evil man

12. But killing Soleimani is not like killing the head of a terrorist org. It’s like killing the head of a terrorist organization and a head of state. You have to treat it as such and the US has not DIRECTLY engaged in assassinations on that level in decades.

Who says we “don’t have a plan?”

Am betting not only do we have one, but it’s already being implemented.

Just how the US media has been instructed to portray this by their masters.

Fact is: enemies have to be treated as enemies
Killing Americans is a dangerous occupation.

But the media has other memes to deploy.

I was thinking the same thing sleeper cells. Lots of them in Venezuela and South America, close to home.
