Socialist Democrats side with terrorist nations. When called out on it...

At the time he was killed, he was a pea e negotiator, regardless of anything else he had done.

BTW: would you say that blowing 6 people up with a drone strike is being "actively engaged in hostilities?"


I'm not defending him; I'm condemning the people you support.

Where in the world did you get ''peace negotiator' from?

Of course it's hostilites. It's not terrorism though. It's actually putting an end to a terrorist that simply won't stop killing people.

"Peace Negotiator...!" That's rich. I'm surprised you didn't mention the unicorn he rode in on...

Just after the assassination, the Iraqi PM put out a statement saying that he (the PM) had been asked by Trump to mediate talks to defuse tensions between Iraq and the US, and that the reason Soleimani was at the Baghdad airport when he was killed was because he was coming back from Tehran with the Iranian government's response to a proposal from the US negotiators.

I first saw it from an NPR reporter who was quoting the Iraqi PM. It's been repeated by a number of other news outlets now.

What makes it "not terrorism?" The fact that the bomb was delivered by drone?

Russia did too, Iran also committed genocide.

When your source is regarded as promoting "tin foil hat " conspiracies and factual reporting is low it may not be the best source to use.

What a load of crap. Why would Iran have a dog in the fight when it came to Iraq and the US. And who in Hades would he be talking to in Iraq about the tensions between Iran and Saudi Arabia? Even in your biased mental fog you have to see the fallacy in this statement?

The OP is truly laughable when one considers that Trump repeatedly has attacked our own 17 different intelligence agencies while repeatedly saying that he believes former KGB head Vladimir Putin instead-- comrades in love.

So are you saying intelligence agencies actually did have evidence of planned attacks by Iran?

I wasn't talking about that, but according to even two of the Pub senators (Lee & Rand), there wasn't any proof provided by these agencies that there was a imminent threat. Same was said by the Dem senators I listened to.

BTW, why would anyone believe Trump to begin with? He's like a male version of "Lucy" who treats his blind followers as if they were "Charlie Brown" by constantly pulling the football out just before Charlie tries to kick it.

Right.

And on the streets of Bagdad but it was much safer for Iranians to do it indoors and out of site of the regime.

Why did the Pentagon feel it was necessary to track this guy for years and how many attacks on U.S. personnel and civilians are attributed to him in that time?

That was not the specific issue being discussed, so bait & switch games I'm not interested in.

Yes, the issue to you was that you haven't seen anything yet to support the imminent threat claim, then you went on a Trump/Lucy Routine.

Still the question remains as to why the Pentagon felt the need to track this guy for years and how many American military and civilians were killed during that time.
