that's not what I'm talking about, I'm talking about terrorism coming straight overseas to the USA. Usually it's those dipshit Saudis, iranians would be more effective

mean I get why people are saying this, but in this scenario it only makes sense if the US SECSTATE personally liaisons with dictators and terrorist leaders to run proxy wars.



I’m not talking about his duties and actions. I’m talking about his stature and influence within the Iranian government. He’s close with the Supreme Leader and has authority to do as he pleases.

This is about on par with another country assassinating a US cabinet member on foreign soil. Secretary Of State, Vice President, Secretary of Defense, etc.



But it wasn’t a US cabinet member or US anything. It was an Iranian. frick him and any other foreign purveyor of terrorism.

We don’t owe them any respect, considerations, or benefit of the doubt. Put these frickers in their place and quit pandering to their governments. They’ll quit participating in the behavior that leads to these types of strikes.
If they don’t, continue to kill them. And keep killing them till they capitulate. They will stop or they will become extinct. It’s pretty basic.

The fact that oil is up less than 2% tells me this isn't as big of deal as people thought it was on page 1.

Soleimani has been described as the architect of Iran's malignant strategy to exert its influence from Tehran to the Mediterranean Sea, bolstering enemies of the U.S. and its allies. Under his leadership, in Iraq, the Iranian regime supplied roadside bombs to Sunni terrorists and used Shiite militias to carry out attacks on U.S. troops and, most recently, against the U.S. Embassy; in Syria, it has provided support for the brutal regime of Bashar Assad; in Lebanon, it has supported and advised the terrorist group Hezbollah; in Yemen, it has stirred civil war by supporting the radical Houthi movement.

US just killed Iranian General Qasem Soleimani

The loss of Soleimani is a devastating blow to the Iranian regime, which is already suffering from President Trump's ratcheting up of sanctions. And it's great news for the U.S.

Terrorist leader. Responsible for thousands American deaths. Every IED, car bomb, suicide vest and bullet in Iraq directed at US soldiers and marines after 2004 was supplied by his forces. He is also the director of Hezbollah.

Internet has also been turned off in Iran because the zealot leaders of Iran know this is a victory for the people of Iran who don't believe they have the power from Allah to conquer the the world and don't want to lose more sons and brothers in Syria, Iraq, and Israel.

This is the punch Iran has deserved for 41 year.

They only believe they are powerful because we have turned the other cheek.

Trump should should ask the Saudis to forgive any treasury bonds they hold for doing this.

....Iran will be held fully responsible for lives lost, or damage incurred, at any of our facilities. They will pay a very BIG PRICE! This is not a Warning, it is a Threat. Happy New Year!


Some dickwad was on CNN saying how Trump has been making hollow threats so it’s doubtful that Iran would give this any weight. If they don’t know, now they know...

America, frick yeah

If 9/11 happened in today’s sick society, CNN would be defending the fricking terrorist hijackers. It’s sad, but true. They would be in full blown panic mode doing everything in their power to defend them and blame Trump, Republicans, white skin, etc.

Yep. Killing a military leader of another country without a Congressional war approval is bad, bad, bad, regardless of that leader’s past actions. The blowback is going to be ugly.






He was part of the rackets. Some newspaper people would like that story.

WAS.

We can arrange the reunion if the Supreme leader wishes, though.

The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said al-Muhandis had arrived to the airport in a convoy to receive Soleimani whose plane had arrived from either Lebanon or Syria. The airstrike occurred as soon as he descended from the plane to be greeted by al-Muhandis and his companions, killing them all.

Sounds like we ambushed him when he was getting off of the plane.
