    1. Leo Cardenas outside of Israel which one of our allies has supported trump? None of our allies approve of this assassination, France & UK have already spoke out against it. It’s ok to support trump(not really) but don’t just lie in an attempt to make a false point

  1. To protect diplomats LMAO the same diplomats you bash 24/7 when they testify under oath… so laughable

    1. @Gery A I kind of wish he wouldn’t. As a matter of fact, since he’s going into his last year, maybe he could hold off on any new decisions, Mitch McConnell SCOTUS style. Now tell me about corrupt dems again?

    2. Former ambassador Yovanowitch got personally threatened by the Chief in Command himself (“the woman…. she’s got to go through some things”). Yeah, the people this government threatened just six weeks ago (supported by the GOP) they want to protect now. Just put yourself in the position of those career people for a second.

  2. For a second there, I thought it was the submarine commander that Sean Connery played in The Hunt for Red October.

    1. the republicans have a sixth sense about these preemptive strikes. soleimani had WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION. it’s a slam dunk… MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

  4. Iran: Continuously attacks the US and its interests, committing and sponsoring acts of terror.
    Internet: *Crickets*
    US: Retaliates, killing no civilians, but one military general responsible for murdering innocents.
    Internet: *WHY DID THE US START A WAR OH NOES!!!*

    Social media has conditioned so many people to hive mentality they never can reflect and address their own cognitive dissonance.

    1. You are correct.

      But wouldn’t it be nice if Iraq had a cruel, strong handed leader to keep Iran and the rest of the religious fanatics in the Middle East in check…oh yeah we killed him too!!! LoL

      Where is good old Saddam Hussein when you need him?

    2. You’re wrong. America has completely got Iran wrong. Iran is not the enemy of America or Israel. Iran is just a neighborhood puppy that barks to compete with the biting/raging/bullying pit-bull called Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is the enemy of humanity. Saudi Arabia is the home of Wahabism. Iran is the home of tamer Shia Islam.

    3. Attacks the US? Huh? Don’t you mean Saudi Arabia? Iran is protecting its interests in Iraq, a country we invaded illegally killings hundreds of thousands of civilians. America is the world’s terrorist.

  5. DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW HAPPY OTHER COUNTRIES ARE? Trust me when I tell you, many people are celebrating and are calling Trump a hero. Don’t let the media fool you guys, Trump has another win.

  6. Imagine if Trump had gone on Soleimani’s Twitter ten seconds before the missiles hit and said “You’re fired.”
