Ingrates. So undeserving of our brave warriors. Bring them home.

The U.S. should have been “reconsidering” its relationship with Iraq as soon as it was apparent that the Iraqi government was either unwilling or incapable of protecting the U.S. embassy in Baghdad.

I’ve been suggesting for days now that we should booby-trap the embassy compound and vacate it. Better yet, let’s pollute it with something that will make the place a ghost town for thousands of years ... and let it stand as a monument to the stupidity and malfeasance of George W. Bush and his globalist cronies.

Forget money deals. You killed the guy great. Now get every American civilian and military out if iraq.

NYT: "brazen killing..."

Memo to NYT via Yahoo: GFY!!

A gentle correction:

> "The Iranians Iranian REGIME have established a lot of local militias in some parts of Iraq, and are good at getting crowds for demonstrations (like American leftists)."

We will see with near certainty that President Trump backs the Iranian PEOPLE to overthrow their maniacal REGIME. They are so fed up.

From last month and still ongoing:
With Brutal Crackdown, Iran Convulsed by Worst Unrest in 40 Years
https://theunionjournal.com/with-brutal-crackdown-iran-convulsed-by-worst-unrest-in-40-years-2

Massive numbers of Iranian protesters not seen since the 1979 Islamic Revolution are now openly demonstrating against the Regime and hundreds are giving their lives in the protest. That is significant. Iran is very unstable much like the Soviet Union in 1989. We can see the era of Islamic terror brought to an historic end just as we saw the fall of the USSR.

Note the Iranian people are NOT ARMED except for a very few that get arms through black markets smuggled into the region. It is entirely possible perhaps probable that weapons are being supplied through Northern Syria through Southern Turkey into Northern Iran. The southern part of Turkey is populated by rural farmers and Turkish soldiers there can easily be made to look the other way just as they are made now with respect to black market oil from Iran brought in by truck convoys destined for Turkish oil ports. It is very possible that the arms supply chain via black marketers will be ratcheted up into Iran to protesters there. Now is the time.

Iranians remember when they had a society that was not obsessed with Islam, they remember they had a thriving middle class, a stable and good life, an economy that provided all basics including the ability to feed themselves. None of this exists today. But it's more than just economic hardship, the Iranian people are fed up with the whole Islamic ideology that leans on them. For years they have had regime spies watching their every move, listening to their every word and taking actions against them for failing to submit to the harsh Mullah rule. Their parents and grandparents REMEMBER when it was different. They have photo albums they keep hidden showing the good life they had. Now they are willing to die to bring it back.

Iranian family before the 1979 Islamic revolution (1960s)

Days after the revolution in 1979, a compulsory Hijab ruling was introduced. The regime issued up to 70 lashes or months of imprisonment for disobeying. Women were banned from being judges.

The legal age of marriage for girls was reduced to 9 and then raised to 13.

President Trump need not send American troops into Iran. He will cripple the Regime there with missile and drone strikes and he can help enable the Iranian people to oust their regime's leaders and break the ruling network. I believe President Trump will help them.

To get a sense of how angry the Iranian people are with their 'Deep State', imagine if the Democrats through blackmail and coercion are able to impeach and remove both President Trump and Vice President Pence, then swear in Nancy Pelosi as President who moves immediately to order the US Army to put down any insurrection and to disarm and confiscate guns followed by a very harsh doctrine of political correctness that Americans must comply with or they will be marked as domestic terrorists and dealt with accordingly.

As Americans we pray the Iranian people see freedom soon and pray that President Trump helps the Iranian people to oust the awful regime that rules over them allowing them to return to the society of their fathers and mothers.

And to think, Bush et al tried to tell us that we would be greeted as “liberators” in Iraq.

[chuckee]

A well directed hellfire beats a pallet of cash anytime in keeping people off the lawn at the local embassy and hopefully getting us out of Iraq once and for all and leaving these people to thinning out the herd by killing each other.

[New Jersey Realist]

Yeah we can move our shit to Iran. For a bit before we leave.

Yeah, like by firing off all our leftover ammo and bombs over Tehran!

[Rappini]

Mixed feelings on this one, I would prefer to fight the ragheads on their turf opposite ours.

[SIDENET]

I guessed NYT article before I clicked on it.

They are that damn predictable.

[Mr Rogers]

Iraq’s government needs to “rethink” having Iranian terrorists controlling much of Iraq. Or else.

And send a BUNCH of NYT reporters to Iraq. Please!

[polymuser]

Why were we ever there at all?

Interesting name in that caption.

Yahoo went to the dark side a LONG time ago.

The deceased is not a military general. He was the commander of the QUD which is a 20.000 sized force similar to the Gestapo of Hitler days and the commander compares to Himmler.

[elpadre]

Yep! and Katie Couric, an avowed Clintonite was in charge of their news.

[Mr. Jeeves]

Even before the shock of the brazen killing wore off...

At least with the Times, you never have to worry about them accidentally saying something pro-American.

[Rebelbase]

Iran rethinking it’s relationship with the US? The very next day after the General’s demise there were “Death to America” rallies in Tehran. Nothing has changed.

[Rebelbase]

It’s been 16 years since Gulf War II and we are still there.

It’s time to go.
