    This would appear to be the US response to the 'humiliation' of having Iraqi civilians protesting the US killing of people in Iraq....and of course the result of the United States reneging on International Treaties.

    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/jan/03/baghdad-airport-iraq-attack-deaths-iran-us-tensions

    The US has ordered its citizens to leave Iraq immediately - that will be if they can get out of the airport without being murdered by the US.

    This is being reported as a very dangerous turn of events with the potential for dire consequenses

    Heaven forbid we kill terrorists. Whose side is the left on? (Nevermind, it was rhetorical).

    I note you are a person who does not think of the consequences of their actions just blindly follows their wish to kill believing there is no law in the world. Many people believe the US is a terrorist State. Would you be fine with everyone killing Americans everywhere they see them calling them terrorists. You are blind. We are describing a situation which is seen as potential to blow the ME, cause assassinations of Americans all over the world and god alone what else up and you claim you have the right to kill whoever you like whenever you want wherever you want without a thought of the response to your killing. American exceptionalism will be the destruction of this world.

    He used to brag about killing 600 US soldiers in Iraq, I really want to know why Trump finally targeted him.

    I note you are a person who sides against the USA. The guy was a TERRORIST who has killed hundreds of Americans and bragged about killing our servicemen, people who are not blind, see it. He was not just some poor Iranian citizen.

    Trump just killed the commander of the operation that killed an American and attacked our embassy and he did it in Iraq, so Iran has nothing to complain about. It's not like Trump used a drone strike on an American citizen like his predecessor .

    I don't know about the 600 if it is true or the circumstances but for the rest.

    Wanting a war in the region....or simply a narcissist responding to humiliation. It was said that the response of the Iraqi people to the US air strike was 'humiliating'

    We have to wait but some people are saying this is the US declaring war. How Iran will respond is yet to be seen.

    I don't know if that is true and that is not the issue. The issue is killing this man in Iraq. You may have got your war for Trumps re-election. To me it just seems infantile to be shouting we can kill him he is a terrorist without thinking about the consequences of your actions. You just cry when they happen and call terrorist and kill more, claim whoopee and repeat. I am responding to your expressed mentality as that is all you have given.You do not know what the US has set in motion but what it has is its responsibility. It is no longer believed safe for Americans to be in Iraq. Netanyahu has returned home to deal with things. This is a major world trigger and all you can say is 'he was a terrorist. Whoopee we killed him'. It shows lack of discerning thought.

    What was an Iranian general doing in Iraq anyway? Thuging himself to death? :lol:

    Well, the Quran commands to "kill infidels wherever you find them" and calling them names, so... how is it for Muslims to taste their own medicine? Karma is a beach. :lol:

    I am glad when America kills a terrorist, he was planning more attacks on Americans. The "lack of discerning thought" is not mine. I cant believe any American would find fault with this, he was our enemy and karma came a calling.

    That does explain it. May the dead guy, rot in hell. To bad his death was more merciful than what he showed his victims.

    Trump did this at this time to get IMPEACHMENT off the news lines.

    This therorist general should have been ordered to stop living before the end of Jaguars 2017.

    This theorist "general" ( Iranian general) Turd has been doing this for years but Trump was not in office before but most importantly Trump was not being impeached.

    Ah yes. Let Iran do whatever violence they want because you might incite them to violence.

    Not sure you put any thought into that.

    So, do you think the Iran led invasion of sovereign US territory, the Embassy, was done to help Trump?

    Not Left, not nutty. Truth is never nutty nor partisan. But of course those who care only about partisan politics will make such accusations against my opinion.

    Of course not but what it did is to give an IMPOTUS the golden opportunity to take impeachment off the news cycle.

    This terrorist general should have been dealt with years ago. Why not in Jan 2017????

    Sigh. Being an anti-war Libertarian, I have to read more about this unfolding situation to form a definitive opinion. I do think we should have been out of the Middle East years ago. Most of the issues over there have to do with 1) oil or 2) Israel, but Americans get the "story" that we are "protecting freedom and democracy" or "saving the world from terrorists".

    Whatever the reasoning, this is likely to disrupt oil prices and make Israel a target of retaliation. Saudi Arabia and Iraq are likely very happy about this action. Perhaps it would have been better if Iraq had taken out the general.

    I'm fairly ignorant about the Middle East, except broad generalities and what we get "fed". I'll just leave it at that for now.

    That all you have is to make a dispicable accusation of "kissing terrorist butts" ??? You make such an accusation because why? You cannot defend what the IMPOTUS - the same "man" who has made a career out of kissing the butt of Putin?

    Go ahead try to post a logical reply to my posts instead of making shamefull attacks against others.
