FROM THE AUTHOR:

According to videos sent to me by people inside the country, the authorities are making little kids write essays praising the fallen commander. First-graders who didn’t know how to write were encouraged to cry for Soleimani.

Some Iranians have compared the funeral services for Soleimani to those held for the Nazi leader Reinhard Heydrich, the Butcher of Prague, killed by Allied agents during World War II.

The great majority of those people would much rather be at a Trump rally.

You have to feel for a proud people with a remarkable culture and history being humiliated by their own government.

"Nobody wants President Trump to bomb Iran’s cultural or historical sites as he threatened in a tweet on Saturday."

Yeah, only leftists protestors can destroy cultural or historical sites...

TIME TO DISENGAGE
Sadly, nobody has informed the MILITARY-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX (MI) or the NEOCON WARHAWKS in DC. 
There may be a way to let them know how we feel BEFORE the next national election on 11/3/2020.  It may be too late if we wait for that.
The PHONE NUMBER AT THE CAPITOL IS 202-224-3121

(I just copied and pasted Christopher Bedford’s brief comments to the WH.  It was delivered!)
YOUR TURN...before YOUR kids (boys & now girls) wind up in another no-win exercise in madness in the blood soaked sandbox called the Middle East where warring tribes have been killing one another since forever and the only “winners” are the owners of the MI.  For additional information on how THAT works, click here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26O-2SVcrw0

Killing Soleimani Was The Right Move, And Shows Precisely Why It’s Time To Leave Iraq
Christopher Bedford, The Federalist
Rather than ask how to whip Iran, we should be wondering if our blood and treasure is better served in defending against the real threats to our homeland. Unending American war in the Middle East drains our coffers, military strength, and political will, all to the glory of Moscow and our true enemies in Beijing. Meanwhile, foreign policy hawks in Washington are terrified Russia might follow our lead, as they have in Syria. Since his inauguration, President Donald Trump has killed the leader of ISIS, and now the Iranian general responsible for hundreds of American dead. He’s done a great deal to clean up the mess his predecessors left him in Iraq and Syria. Now it is time to disengage.

Some folks who didn’t go to the funeral stampede were shot. That improves attendance.

Can someone explain why everyone’s hair is on fire about this one drone kill. How many drone kills did Obama engage in?
