Trump is dangerous!.

Trump defeated ISIS within his first term.
Obama is the ONLY president who was in active war for both terms.
Like I said before, your IQ is showing.

I haven't stated anything as fact yet. I offered a reasonably logical view that these attacks might have already been planned.

You and JB are the only people I've seen ( in this thread ) jump to conclusions and make ridiculous statements about war and martial law.

"If we go to war Trump will not relinquish the Presidency. He will declare Martial Law." - lennco.

All you do is state alternative facts.

That's because JB and I have our eyes open and we understand the kind of man Trump really is where you do not.

I stand by that last statement IF come election we are at war when Trump loses he will not relinquish the Presidency when it's time for the transition and he will declare Martial Law.

Never said anything about martial law. Looks like another Bush/Iraq type of deal. I guess you guys want more of that.

 

[Domainace]

Nobody’s saying he was a good guy. But taking out a high ranking official of a country we’re not at war with on 3rd party foreign soil without notifying the 3rd party would be like France droning Pompeo on a trip to Canada.

Uh... well, that would be exactly right if France and the USA were engaged in hostilities and a proxy war for control of Canadian soil. Pretty far-fetched idea even for you though. Something against Canadians?

 

[.X.]

What an idiot you are today.
Trump will return the favor, then Iran will do the same, back and forth until complete disaster.

Breath lennco, Breath. Go check your britches too lol

Under Obama, the U.S. has extended secret “special forces” operations to 138 countries, or 70 per cent of the world’s population. The first African-American president launched what amounted to a full-scale invasion of Africa. Reminiscent of the Scramble for Africa in the late Nineteenth Century, the U.S. African Command (Africom) has built a network of supplicants among collaborative African regimes eager for American bribes and armaments.
"It was Obama who, in 2011, announced what became known as the “pivot to Asia”, in which almost two-thirds of U.S. naval forces would be transferred to the Asia-Pacific to “confront China,” in the words of his Defense Secretary. There was no threat from China; the entire enterprise was unnecessary. It was an extreme provocation to keep the Pentagon and its demented brass happy.

You're clueless!

i had to edit this post, now CNN says no casualties , they said their were about 15 minutes ago

@lennco ,"" Provided"" CNN is wrong or what they are calling casualties is "Injuries, I don't think we will even use military action to respond, perhaps the response will be monetary to Iran, Nothing militarily IMO

 

[SirDrago]

The White House was forced to concede that it killed two innocent hostages – one American, one Italian – in a drone strike that targeted an al-Qaida compound despite officials not knowing precisely who was in the vicinity.

The deaths of Dr Warren Weinstein, a US government aid worker, and Giovanni Lo Porto, an Italian aid worker, who were being held captive in the Afghanistan and Pakistan border region, have placed unprecedented pressure on Barack Obama’s secret program of targeted drone killings.

Obama kills our allies, Trump kills terrorist and Democrats cry foul.

I hope you are right, I really do.
I do not want any American casualties and certainly I do not want a war with Iran.

You posted a lying edited video and now you are trying to change the subject. Typical Trumptard.

Seems like you don't see very well. You are in need of some glasses...and some common sense!

Words from an Iranian about the Iranian people (Remember them? The ones the US abandoned and left to the mercy of goons like Soleimani.)

The video was edited and taken out of context. Maybe you need glasses.

You just proved to everyone in this thread that you have the IQ of a split pea.

LOL...

Can someone please post any video of any US Democrat Senator or Congressman or any US top media outlets like CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS or even Fox mourning the death of Soleimani?

And the video must not be edited and taken out of context.

I'll be waiting.......

Thanks for the Video, but I'm sure that Lennco (if he gets to see it) will say that it's edited or a lie!
