On Friday’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “America’s Newsroom,” Chris Wallace the anchor of “Fox News Sunday,” pointed out both former presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama did not order Quds Force Supreme Commander Qasem Soleimani be killed in an airstrike when they had the opportunity to do so.
Wallace said, “Both President Obama and President Bush had the options at several points to take out Soleimani, and they decided as much as they hated him, not to do that because they were worried how the Iranians would respond to that. That is the concern. They talked about harsh retaliation, what form will not take? Will there be military strikes? Will there be terror attacks? Iran has a very sophisticated cyber capability. Could they be cyber attacks on the U.S. homeland? If this is the kind of strike that finally gets Tehran’s attention and they pulled back, that’s a great message for the U.S. On the other hand, if they simply escalate and respond to our escalation with another one of their own, people will have to decide how far we want to take this.”

Even that was taken away from me when Mike Wallace's spawn took over.
If Obama was so worried about their response for him killing a terrorist then why did he give them so much money
Did they? Did they really hate him?
Apparently the Iranians weren’t that worried about OUR response when they attacked our embassy, were they?
Which one of those was not owned by the Deep State?
One was a muslim sympathizer, the other was a muslim.
Trump took out Soleimani - and then tweeted: This guy should have been killed sooner!
Classic! its why we love Trump.
What response.....??
I guess that’s why FDR, Churchill, and Stalin were afraid to take out Himmler.
Time for Iran to worry about America.
b.s. they were getting money and whores
from Iran, and HATED Americans
so they did whatever their shiite masters wanted.
Tucker Carlson was spewing Libertarian cowardness against the taking out of the Terrorists. Done with him.
Oh please Wallace! Soleimani was part of the Deep State club. Obama did give him and his mullah bosses $150 billion. Of course no MSM mention of this today!
I was surprised to hear Tucker Carlson come out against the airstrike.
How many Americans died because of Bush & Obama?
Wallace’s Pathetic attempt to Justify the feckless W and O administrations that he and his ilk are all so fond of.
“I used to be able to watch Fox News Sunday, the only Sunday news show I could stand.”
Agreed, but on the other hand, I have little doubt that the essence of the headline is correct.
President Trump took out Iran’s top Military mind and leader
Who will Iran choose to lead the counter attack???
Like I said in another post. Iran isn’t doing a damn thing. Kerry told them to bide their time while the rats rig the 20 election and that’s exactly what they are going to do.
