Nobody was talking about the world's #1 bad guy before this https://twitter.com/TomCokeIsABlunt/status/1213179094663344134?s=20
He was such an expert bad guy that he managed to keep everyone from talking about him lol.

It's a simple propaganda tactic,  you seem surprised people are falling for it.     

Stay tuned for round 2,  where we will get a few follow up pre-emptive strikes.   Then the big reveal of how Iran was planning a coup to take over Iraq.   ( That could even be true )

The bottom line is that Trump is unstable and lacks any strategic plan beyond knee jerk reactions.   Otherwise I'm not sorry to see Iranian terrorists kicked where it hurts most.

Aha! Mike Pompeo explains it. You see he was about to execute an attack on america. Fortunately trump found out about it first.

Oh and you're not allowed to know any details or be allowed to see any evidence of it.  Also congress isn't allowed either. That's how deadly this attack was going to be.

But trust us. If you see the evidence, which definitely exists, you would say wow this guy was more of a threat than Saddam Hussein.

Yes. Half of my country really is so fucking stupid that they'd believe that.

No one has been able to demonstrate so far he was planning said attack. It wouldn't fucking matter anyways, it's NOW that Iran is probably planning an attack. It's not like Soleimani was not some guy who was going to strap a bomb in his chest and blow up a bunch of people and now that he's gone the danger is gone, he was an army General.

Depends.
If he knew and literally did nothing, then yes.  If he knew and weakened the embassy security, yes.  If he knew and beefed up security, no.  If he knew and evacuated the embassy, no.

One could argue that Trump has literally made the people working in the embassy much more precarious.

For someone who wanted America out of the Middle East, his stupid assassination now demanded thousands more to come in - yet his administration argues they killed him to 'de escalate' the situation.

What a joke

It's troubling that such an unhinged madman can organise a murder like that. He's probably got a taste for it too. Has no problem with targeting culturally significant sites too. What a bastard. That's terrorist talk - and a war crime. It's the shit ISIS did to the disgust of everyone.

Orange man is bad, but I have pretty much withheld criticizing the assassination. I don't know what the fuck to believe about any of it. The media practically drooling over the situation makes me trust them even less than I trust Trump. Trump's behavior after it happened is ridiculous. He needs to get off Twitter.

I think that the way US media almost always jump to the defense of almost any military action taken by any government, regardless if so far they had been trashing it for everything and anything is the best evidence one can have for the influence the military industrial complex has on them, and their lack of independence.

I heard a great rebuttal to the war crimes promised by Trump today. Either he didn't actually mean bombing cultural sights because the US army would have already weeded those out of available targets because of military lawyers, or it doesn't matter that trump called for war crimes because military personnel are sworn to not violate war conventions so they wouldn't carry out the order.  What a brilliant way to put things into perspective.

I think you have pretty much said exactly what I was thinking.   ( that's a worry )

The only thing I would add is, that I think Trump panicked over the possibility that this attack on the embassy was going to become another Benghazi.  That scared the shit out of him because of the political backlash he would cop. 

Trump was panicking that this was going to be his Benghazi,  and that would have finished him politically.

It might still.

Depends on what you mean by "general" 

Specifically
Quote
The 2020 United States presidential election is scheduled for Tuesday, November 3, 2020. It will be the 59th quadrennial presidential election. Voters will select presidential electors who in turn on December 14, 2020, will either elect a new president and vice president or re-elect the incumbents.

All 435 seats in the United States House of Representatives, 34 of the 100 seats in the United States Senate, and the office of president of the United States will be contested.


Do you disagree?

My own prediction ...  I predict that Trump will be in jail by  July 2021 or earlier.
