I am surprised that Soleimani was so careless as to be moving about in broad daylight in an area where US airpower controls the sky.

One wonders if his death might be convenient for the Iranian clerics in their efforts to stay at the helm of government..

Eight years of Obama's cowardice and funding your terror will make you lose your edge I suppose.

What does it say that an Iranian General was so comfortable and 'secure' in Iraq?

The same Iraq that did nothing to stop the Iranian militias from attacking the US Embassy.

Some might say that Iran is running Iraq.

A massive funeral with thousands all dressed in black lined the streets of Revolutionary Guard General Qassem Soleimani's hometown of Kerman in Iran today. The commander killed Friday in a US strike, was one of the most popular figures in Iran and seen as a deadly adversary by America and its allies

They kept Soleimani so busy with foreign escapades so that he would never turn his attentions toward actually taking over the country for himself. I wonder just how saddened some of the power brokers are back in Iran!

He had been given amnesty from Emperor Zero. He was untouchable. Actually believed the lies of our deep state cronies. Lol.
