You would think they would thank President Trump for saving the world the cost of a trial.

So yesterday they were killed using katyusha rockets, now it’s an American airstrike.
.
There will be retaliation for this.

I am glad Suleimani took a bullet but one thing for sure in that sick part of the world. If they are dancing in the streets it involves celebration over someone’s death. Their biggest celebrations are reserved for dead Americans Probably a bunch of sunnis hating on the shia. I don’t trust any of them.

“The attack has come days after an Iran-backed militia and other protesters attacked the United States Embassy in Baghdad. “

= = =

It needs to be made clear:

1. This attack on our embassy was an attack of American soil.

2. “Protesters”, if any, were a minor part of the attack on the embassy. These were heavily armed militia and they were well organized. They set up roadblocks and checkpoints around the embassy.

3. The militia was a proxy military force for Iran.

Iran works through proxies (like Hezballah)

Iranian proxies brought advanced IEDs into Afghanistan and Iraq that were used against US troops....killing and maiming tens of thousands.

Suleimani was the organizer/trainer of the proxy groups.

Trump just told Iran - the US will hold YOU accountable for what the proxies do.

Well, it looks like we may very well have go our intelligence back. A surgical strike where this general was known to be located. We haven’t see such precise intelligence since Reagan knocked out a bunker in Libya and scared the hell out of Gaddafi.

This is really good stuff.

God bless Trump who will not be bamboozled like his sad post-Reagan predecessors. All the lights are on under trump’s watch.

The Left will turn the lights out whenever they can.

Trump’s 2020 landslide is quickly on its way and there’s NOTHING the Left can do about it except unwittingly create a greater 2020 Trump landslide.

The Sunnis in Iraq are celebrating. The Shiites, maybe not so much.

A lot of the current conflict in the middle east is due to conflicts between different Muslim sects and ethnicities (Sunni vs Shiite, Arab/Turk vs Kurds, etc)

"The night’s airstrike risks provoking further dangerous escalation of violence," Pelosi said in a statement Thursday night. "America – and the world – cannot afford to have tensions escalate to the point of no return. The Administration has conducted tonight’s strikes in Iraq targeting high-level Iranian military officials and killing Iranian Quds Force Commander Qasem Soleimani without an Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) against Iran. This action was taken without the consultation of the Congress." The Trump administration's choice not to inform top congressional leaders continues a pattern that breaks with practices by previous administrations.

The last line is rich, talk about breaking patterns during her impeachment trial and not giving the GOP their day to call witnesses.

Um, can’t anybody spot propaganda any more? Do you really trust the US government to tell the truth about anything?
