Why Did The Pentagon Ever Give Trump The Option Of Killing Soleimani?

You are xfring in a general comment into a personal one *aimed* at you. Hmmm.

No, you're equating Soleimani's actions during the Iraq War with terrorism. That's childish and idiotic.

Ask Iraqis if they consider Bush and Cheney to be terrorists, for all of the unnecessary death and destruction they brought down on Iraq. A large percentage of them will say yes. And they have justification in their beliefs.

I am sorry were you confused and thinking we were at war with Iran during the iraq war.
But do you want to explain why Obama labeled him a terrorist if it’s so childish and idiotic.

He is a terrorist and no matter how much you hat trump that fact will not change. Your TDS has no effect on reality.

And I have talked to many Iraqis who are very happy we were there. I have been over there multiple times. How many times have you been there and talked to the people there.

Most of the world sees this as a reckless, irresponsible stunt, one which will produced collateral damage and blowback for years to come.

The world is very obviously considerably less safe. Iran is almost certain to develop nuclear weapons, sooner, not later. And Tehran can respond at its leisure, and every soldier, official, businessman, or anyone else abroad with a US Passport is “fair” game.

Contrary to your manufactured narrative, this decision was not made as the result of months of planning. Trump saw a name and a PowerPoint slide and the Pentagon had to scramble to figure out how to do it.

Which is more typical of Trump’s slipshod management style.

The only “experts” who think this was a bold (in a good way) move are on AM right wing talk radio.

Do you have evidence for all those claims. Or how about even just one.

Excellent article from the Washington Post. Excerpt below:

Obviously, our national security apparatus is broken. If generals give a dimwit nut job like Trump an ill-advised crazy option, it's highly likely he is going to choose the crazy option.

In this case, the Pentagon deserves just as much blame as Donald Trump.

Trump gave the authorization to kill this mad dog seven months before the deed was done. This is hardly a "rapid time line". It's just another line of lying propaganda, fake news, stupidity aimed at stupid, brain dead robots.

As always, telling only half of the sorry is what is required to arrive at the conclusion that WaPo seeks to implant in the brains of its drones.

Trump approved Soleimani assassination 7 months ago, report says | The Independent

Sure, it is, because we created the conditions for that outcome. Anyone who argues we are not responsible can be charged with accessory after the fact to war crimes.

Saddam Hussein created the underlying conditions in Iraq.

If he were alive, yes, he could be charged along with Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, and others.

Oh sure. Charge the ones who liberated Iraq from the Hussein regime. Let me give you a clue. In real life the criminal and the cops who get him are never considered morally equivalent.

Maybe the plan was to set Trump up, showing him to be the impulsive imbecile he is, to provide fodder for the impeachment cannon?

Bush et al are and were not the equivalent of the cops or international law. Not even the UN would endorse much less approve the invasion.

In other words, you sit on a Throne of Lies.

That's odd since his post began with "And you". Hey if you lefties want to fantasize about men on here, that is fine but perhaps it should be in a different section.

Do you own a television? Does it receive more than one channel??????

Even the US polls don’t support it.

No one, anywhere believes that Trump’s recklessness makes anyone safe.

It was the right decision. The fact that your panties are in a bunch over it is all the evidence necessary.

So you have no evidence. That is what I thought.

I could care less about your sorry Repug propaganda anecdotes about Iraqis being "happy" about you being over there. What else are they going to do? Tell you to **** off?

Over 4,000 American soldiers are dead, so obviously a lot of Iraqis did not want the war criminals Bush and Cheney sending American soldiers over there.

What was Soleimani doing in Iraq?

What the **** were we doing in Iraq? That's the better question. Did you find any WMD when you were in Iraq?
