LOL. A country doesn't have to invade another country to justify said country taking military action against it, ffs. Our leaders had info that the Iranian military commander who was killed was planning more attacks. If Trump hadn't taken him out and he (Iranian commander) had ended-up killing lots of american civilians and/or troops then everyone on the left and in the lying MSM would've practically crucified Trump for being negligent or something similar. This is just yet another example of Trump being damned if he does and damned if he doesn't; no matter what he does or doesn't do, his crybaby critics are gonna b*tch and complain.
Huh? When did Japan invade America? Pearl Harbor wasn't an invasion. There were thousands of American lives lost though. The dead Iranian commander was also responsible for hundreds if not thousands of American and her allies' deaths.

Trump admin claims killing Soleimani was necessary to deter further aggression from Iran.KILLING... to DETER AGGRESSION.
This is the kind of logic Jerry Sienfeld would have a field day with.
Trump needed a distraction from his shitshow and his impeachment, he asked for ideas, someone in his admin (Pompeo?) pointed to Iran and Soleimani and Trump said "good."
It's like this amazing person talked about back in June of 2019, wars/military conflict is the best distraction:

Trump is likely just using this as a distraction, thoughts of pending war does that almost as good as actual war. Despite Iran's sabre-rattling, Iran does not want a war with the US, it'll lose more than gain and they know this. But sure, that doesn't mean it can't happen, Trump could easily launch missiles or drop bombs without Congress' approval to try and force Iran's hand in attacking back and that could landslide into all out war.
Originally posted by eThneoLgrRnaeAnd why do you think killing one person will prevent these attacks? Are you a retard that doesn't understand how a military works? Are you not aware that any plans he might have had will just be continued on by others that are brought in to fill his place? Like any country, Iran has plenty of generals, and generals don't act without the permission of higher-ups.
Our leaders had info that the Iranian military commander who was killed was planning more attacks.

Enlightenment us on the difference between this guy and any other terrorist and why he should be spared.

Firstly I was questioning Surturs logic on how this is at all like Pearl Harbour.
That said, to answer your query, Once you open that Pandoras box of military commanders of other countries being the same as any other terrorist, then where does it end? Should we be killing North Korean commanders? What about Chinese officials?
Besides all that, its a big frigging difference given he wasnt recruiting people to carry out terrorist attacks in the West. If its about attacking U.S. troops in the region then perhaps you should be questioning having whats perceived as occupying forces in that region. If its about general human right abuses, maybe you should discuss with your international allies if thats justified and more importantly, a good idea. And also out of all the human rights abusers, Why him?

Bingo.
He accused Obama of planning to do the same thing back in 2011. And here he is doing exactly that.
Tzeentch: so, if he was left alive and did end-up killing hundreds of more americans I suppose you would've been totally ok with that?
Oh wait, of course you would've because you're a typical USA-hating democrat voter who cares nothing of innocent lives being taken. After all, I'm sure you fully support abortion; nearly a thousand unborn children murdered in this country every single day while still in their mothers' wombs and of course you couldn't care less so please drop the act of you pretending to care about "thousands of U.S. troops" supposedly "being slaughtered" as you so sarcastically brought-up in a previous post.

Yeah sure, Trump needed to deflect from the sham impeachment show which was making his numbers go up and helped him raise nearly 100 million dollars... right, that makes perfect sense. 🙄 ....dumbass. Surely you can't be this f***ing dumb, robbie.
So now, since Pelosi looks like she's gonna be sitting on the articles forever (because she knows damn well what happens if and when they reach the Senate) anytime Trump does something that is gonna be deemed a "deflection" in your jackass mind.
Even at face value, is this a smart move?
Losing most public support at home and abroad, and justifying retaliation.
I'm not so naive that I dan't understand Iranian leaders have done some underhanded things. The question is, how far are we willing to escalate this?
And, to what end?
I mean, actual lives are at stake here. What would you tell to parents of lost children that they died for?
What possible interests justify large loss of life?

Well, that's now up to the Iranians isn't it? The ball is now in their court. If they rataliate by killing a bunch of Americans then yes, we will and most definitely should retaliate perhaps even more severely next time. You mess with the bull and you get the horns. The Obama-era days of weakness are over with.
Trump is not losing support. Even among the people who suppoorted him before but criticized him for the strike they still, for the most part, support him.

TBF, Trump made that accusation more than just once, it was multiple twitter rants over a two year period or so:
Election year. Check
Trying to appear tough. Check
Poll numbers dipping and desperate. Check
Trying to save face. Check
Incompetence. Check
Deflection. Check

Wow. We could see a unified Iran and Iraq out of this, this will not make the KSA or Israel happy at all. Russia and China are smiling though. Trade. Trade. Trade. Oil. Oil. Oil.

Pulling out troops seems like a good idea. You guys worried about thousands of troops dead should be happy 👆
