Keep them caged up in Iran/Iraq where they can live their lives doing what they will. Attacking the US embassy must have a response or it goes to the next Benghazi level. Shut it down and isolate them.

Popular Post bobbin Posted January 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2020 If you are outside your country's territory, wandering around war-zones while planning attacks on other countries nationals, this has to be considered an occupational hazard..

How would the US react if the Joint Chief of staff was killed? Dumb and dumber. Trump just does not get it. This could very well be his undoing. How would the US react? Depends on if the US had been blowing up their oil tankers, destroying their oil refining infrastructure, trying to burn down their Embassy, and then sent a general to the ME to escalate attacks on Iran. In that case, I would expect Iran to try to kill the general. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The US wouldn't have had to react if Trump has listened to the Pentagon and not imposed such harsh measures on Iran. As the Pentagon pointed out, with lots of troops on the ground, that's a lot of potential targets you're giving the Iranians. And now the militias in Iraq, too. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Skallywag Posted January 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2020 3 hours ago, webfact said: the U.S. military has taken decisive defensive action to protect U.S. personnel abroad by killing Qasem Soleimani," The wonders of the Military Industrial Complex. Invade the Middle East, spend Trillions of tax payer dollars that mostly go to a few corporations that supply weapons to the U.S military. Then 18 years later claim a great victory in killing a commander in the Middle East that would never have had the chance to kill U.S. soldiers if we hadn't invaded their space to begin with. The rich keep getting richer by placing our young soldiers in harms way for profit. Meanwhile domestic terrorism grows in the USA, and more and more tax paying citizens can not afford a home, health care, or higher education. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acharn Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) Just now, Brigand said: This guy was certainly an enemy of the US and more than likely deserved it. Question is about whether this was an assassination of a political/military figure without the approval of Congress (which I believe is needed for such actions). Although, when dealing with the actors here it is certainly 6 of one and half a dozen of the other as Iran is up to no good and is doing a fine job of also destabilizing the whole region too. Very dangerous situation now and wouldn't be surprised if it kicks off a bit. President Obama declared that the President has the authority to kill any person, including US citizens, anywhere in the world if that person is suspected of being connected to a terrorist organization. That's the excuse he gave for killing Anwar Awlaki after a year of highly public discussion. Then a week later he approved the killing of Anwar's 16-year-old son. Congress is not permitted to intervene. They need to do something about that, or we're going to have a president someday who uses the precedent the same way Sulla used proscription when he was dictator of the Roman Republic. This case was particularly stupid because Suleimani was an idol in Iran, greatly loved and admired by the people. No good will come from this. Along with Suleimani, they assassinated the commander of a large Shi'a militia (the ones who entered the embassy a couple days ago). The Iraqi Parliament was already divided over whether of not to demand American forces withdraw from Iraq. This will make it a cinch to pass. That means there will be no way to supply troops in Syria. Do you think the American Army is going to fight to stay in Iraq? How are they going to justify that?
