Game-changer? What will Iran do in response? You hear all of the buzzwords about revenge, escalation, and even war. But at the end of the day, Iran is not our friend and we need to stop bending over backwards to excuse their continued reckless behavior. https://t.co/uhkqUx9LTx— C.H. Truth (@C_H_Truth) January 3, 2020
Some on the left appear to have already forgotten that Americans were just attacked at our Embassy and another American was killed by an Iranian attack. Apparently, we should just sit back and take it, all in the name of not escalating tensions so that we can continue "diplomatic" attempts to appease Iran. The left always has this knee jerk reaction to every event like this, where they would have much preferred a President Obama response, which would have probably involved groveling for forgiveness for whatever misdeeds America has committed that caused the attack on Americans abroad. If Obama had his way, he might have sent an American entourage to all take turns kissing the Ayatollah's feet as public display of apology.
Trump, on the other hand, decides to fight fire with fire. He doesn't draw red lines and then ignore them. He doesn't try to buy off our enemies bill billions in cash. Trump gave it back twice as hard, and now Iran is bound and determined to do what? Do "they" really want an escalation, knowing that Trump is not the President to just back down. Trump has the actual ability to reign down the sort of fire and brimstone that Iran just can only bluster about. He will no doubt do it if pushed too hard.
Iran is not our friend and unless "they" change they never will be our friend.

“Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He’s weak and he’s ineffective. So the only way he figures that he’s going to get reelected — and as sure as you’re sitting there — is to start a war with Iran.”
WHO SAID IT?
Donald Trump in 2011.
Yep. It was said by Donald Trump in a video from Trump Tower on November 16, 2011.
Even before Obama's second term, Trump had suggested that Obama would attack Iran to try to secure four more years in office.
"@BarackObama will attack Iran in the not too distant future because it will help him win the election," Trump tweeted on Nov. 14, 2011.
Days later, he said, "Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He's weak and he's ineffective. So the only way he figures that he's going to get reelected - and as sure as you're sitting there - is to start a war with Iran," according to a video posted this week by a Washington Post video editor.
"In order to get elected, @BarackObama will start a war with Iran," he followed up on Nov. 29, 2011.
Nearly a year later, on Oct. 22, 2012, Trump repeated the same claim, writing, "Don't let Obama play the Iran card in order to start a war in order to get elected - be careful Republicans!"
In October 2012, Trump also suggested that Obama would "launch a strike in Libya or Iran" because his "poll numbers are in tailspin."

Trump Needs to Coax More Votes from a Shrinking Base
“President Trump’s 2020 election strategy relies largely on the white, working-class base that he excited in 2016. But he faces a demographic challenge: The electorate has changed since he was last on the ballot in ways likely to benefit Democrats,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“Working-class, white voters are projected to decline by 2.3 percentage points nationally as a share of eligible voters, compared with the last election, because they are older and therefore dying at a faster rate than are Democratic groups. As those voters pass on, they are most likely to be replaced by those from minority groups or young, white voters with college degrees—groups that lean Democratic.
“That means Mr. Trump will have to coax more votes from a shrinking base—or else find more votes in other parts of the electorate.”
IT ALSO MEANS THE GOP IS DOING AND WILL DO ALL IT CAN TO SUPPRESS THE COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY VOTE.
No one in the west is shedding tears for Soleimani. My question is whether or not the administration is ready for the reprisals?
Trump has another base. We used to call them Reagan democrats. And blacks. And Hispanics.
And Trump was right about obama. You cannot negotiate from weakness.
No one in the west is shedding tears for Soleimani. My question is whether or not the administration is ready for the reprisals?

Funny how all on the right keep forgetting that the busch inspired war of idiocy keeps giving and giving with a major escalation on the horizon in spite of Lil Scotty's dumb fucking words.....BWAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
President Trump’s decision to strike and kill the second most powerful official in Iran turns a slow-simmering conflict with Tehran into a boiling one, and is perhaps the riskiest move made by the United States in the Middle East since the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
The calculus was straightforward: Washington had to re-establish deterrence, and show the Iranian leadership that missiles fired at ships in the Persian Gulf and at oil facilities in Saudi Arabia, along with attacks inside Iraq that cost the life of an American contractor, would not go without response.
But while senior American officials have no doubt the Iranians will respond, they don’t know how quickly, or how furiously.
For a president who repeated his determination to withdraw from the caldron of the Middle East, the strike that killed Maj. Gen. Qassim Suleimani, who for two decades has been leader of Iran’s most fearsome and ruthless military unit, the Quds Force, means there will be no escape from the region for the rest of his presidency, whether that is one year or five. Mr. Trump has committed the United States to a conflict whose dimensions are unknowable, as Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, seeks vengeance.
“This is a massive walk up the escalation ladder,’’ wrote Charles Lister of the Middle East Institute. “With Suleimani dead, war is coming — that seems certain, the only questions are where, in what form and when?”
Bruce Riedel, the former C.I.A. officer who spent his life studying the Middle East, and is now at the Brookings Institution, said, “The administration is taking America into another war in the Middle East, bigger than ever.”
Yet it may not be a conventional war in any sense, since the Iranians’ advantage is all in asymmetric conflict.
He is revered in Iran not on MSNBC live. Asshole
For Trump, a Risky Gamble to Deter Iran https://nyti.ms/2SSwAqD
Complicating the management of a perilous moment is the president’s impeachment and the revival of Iran’s nuclear program.
Because he withdrew from the treaty done by the President Obama administration.
I think the "Let's not do anything because bad people will be mad at us." strategy has run its course.
Only an idiot would think Trump would take this action based merely on ego.
The wash post called him revered. So Roger can kiss my ass.
Are Trump cultists really this dumb, wait I know the answer already:
"Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin – watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate." -Trump
"Don't let Obama play the Iran card in order to start a war in order to get elected--be careful Republicans!" -Trump
“Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He's weak and he's ineffective. So the only way he figures that he's going to get reelected — and as sure as you're sitting there — is to start a war with Iran.” -Trump
Hey dumbass treaties are ratified by the Senate
Analysts agreed that Soleimani was a unique figure and probably irreplaceable for the Iranian regime. But after the shock of the news of his death, some wondered what effect killing such a revered figure would have on the region.
He was revered in his country asshole.

I replied to his tweet. "Starting a war is easy. But getting out of the war is not very easy. Mr. President "
Glad to hear it’s a preemptive strike.
That’s means if Iran strikes back against US forces, the stated purpose of this was a complete & utter failure.
Whatever you say. Did you even know ahead of time that Trump was going to make a move that would make the whole Middle East explode? He was a bad guy, yes, but he killed him inside Iraq, a sovereign country we are not at war with. And now he’s a martyr.
I wonder why nobody is considering what sort of action Trump will have in response to further provocation from Iran?
Everyone acts as if whatever Iran does to retaliate, we will just sit back and take it. I think that is a colossal error in judgement.
I said before last night
Good riddance.
BAGHDAD (AP) — An airstrike killed Gen. Qassem Soleimani, head of Iran’s elite Quds Force and architect of its regional security apparatus, at Baghdad’s international airport Friday, Iranian state television and three Iraqi officials said, an attack that's expected to draw severe Iranian retaliation against Israel and American interests.
The strike also killed Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, deputy commander of Iran-backed militias in Iraq known as the Popular Mobilization Forces, or PMF, the officials said. The PMF media arm said the two were killed in an American airstrike that targeted their vehicle on the road to the airport.
If there is a war with Iran in the Middle East...
There will be a certain group of Congress people who will be put on the spot as to where their loyalties lie. One thing to talk about the politics of the Middle East with your loyalties to our enemies.
It's another to show those loyalties while we are at war.
it may not be a conventional war in any sense, since the Iranians’ advantage is all in asymmetric conflict.

I’m not buying that General Soleimani was plotting to kill thousands of Americans and that’s why he was killed. I believe it is completely fabricated, like the WMD/Iraq claim but worse. This administration lies at every turn about everything, why should we believe them now?
January 29, 2018
In one shot in “The Final Year,” a documentary about President Obama’s national-security team during the last months of his presidency, the camera zooms in on a dead cockroach in the West Wing. An off-camera voice explains how the building is so old that roaches roam free and people can hear rats scurrying in the pipes overhead. Feel free to draw your own metaphors.
“The Final Year” is now available on HBO and showing in select theaters across the country. Although the film features Obama, Secretary of State John Kerry, and National Security Advisor Susan Rice, it focuses on United Nations Ambassador Samantha Power and Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes, a 29-year-old speechwriter with no foreign policy experience when he joined the administration in early 2009.
As the world implodes around them and the political landscape at home shifts in unforeseen ways, largely in protest to his reign, Obama and his advisors blithely find time to lavish praise on each other and themselves for the “arc of progress” they commanded over eight years. The film is a view into their collective incompetence, rooted in a combination of naiveté and smug superiority and fed with college-level platitudes about war, diplomacy, and engagement. Knowing how the story ends is the only thing that makes it tolerable to watch 90 minutes of their preening and moralizing.

Ex-CIA Director Predicts ‘Dead Civilian Americans’
Former Acting CIA Director Michael Morell told CBS News there would be “dead civilian Americans” as a result of the killing of Qassem Suleimani.
Said Morell: “Suleimani was an evil genius, he had a lot of American blood on his hands. The world is a better place without him. The problem is that comes at a very high cost.”
He continued: “Number one, there will be dead Americans, dead civilian Americans, as a result of this. Possibly over the next few days in any place where Iran has its proxies. Iraq is the most likely place, but also Lebanon, Bahrain, other places in the Middle East.”

President Obama declared himself “heartbroken” by the brutal murder of an American journalist, James Foley, and vowed to “be relentless” against Islamic radicals threatening to kill another American.
But as soon as the cameras went off, Mr. Obama headed to his favorite golf course on Martha’s Vineyard, where he is on vacation, seemingly able to put the savagery out of his mind. He spent the rest of the afternoon on the links even as a firestorm of criticism erupted over what many saw as a callous indifference to the slaughter he had just condemned."
Trump does have a plan to keep our embassy personnel safe. That's why he sent in the Marines. See how that works obama?

There are currently efforts in the House and the Senate to repeal the 2002 Iraq Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF).
In the House, Rep. Barbara Lee (CA-13) has introduced H.R. 2456, as well as an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act. In the Senate, S.J. Res. 13 from Sens. Tim Kaine (VA) and Todd Young (IN) would repeal both the 2002 Iraq AUMF and the 1991 Gulf War AUMF, passed to authorize a military response to Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait.
you were saying alky???
It happened in Iraq dumbass.
Actually he was brazenly driving around Baghdad in the open thinking he was untouchable. His mistake.
WASHINGTON — The White House believes that Congress’s 2002 authorization of the Iraq war — and not just the 2001 authorization to fight Al Qaeda — provides a legal justification for President Obama’s air campaign against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, the Obama administration said Friday.
The White House has not issued a formal analysis of its legal thinking, but the disclosure adds to an evolving public understanding of its theory about the basis for the strikes against ISIS.
When the bombing began in August, Mr. Obama’s letters to Congress cited his constitutional powers as commander in chief. On Wednesday, Mr. Obama said he already had legal authority for the campaign, but would welcome specific congressional approval, too, and administration officials for the first time cited the 2001 authorization to use military force against those responsible for the 9/11 attacks for the campaign.
By claiming statutory authority, the administration sidestepped the War Powers Resolution, which requires deployments into hostilities to end after 60 days if Congress has not signed off. But public and background briefings for reporters this week mentioned only the 9/11 Authorization for the Use of Military Force, or A.U.M.F., and not the Iraq authorization, as did a statement the White House released after Mr. Obama’s speech.
It turns out, however, that the administration also maintains that the Iraq authorization — which it wants to repeal — provides separate statutory authority for the strikes.
“The president may rely on the 2001 A.U.M.F. as statutory authority for the military airstrike operations he is directing” against I.S.I.S., the administration said in a written statement provided to The New York Times and attributed to a senior administration official. “As we have explained, the 2002 Iraq A.U.M.F. would serve as an alternative statutory authority basis on which the president may rely for military action in Iraq. Even so, our position on the 2002 A.U.M.F. hasn’t changed and we’d like to see it repealed.”

President Trump:
"We took action last night to stop a war. We did not take action to start a war. I have deep respect for the Iranian people. They are a remarkable people with an incredible heritage and unlimited potential. We do not seek regime change. However, the Iranian regime’s aggression in the region, including the use of proxy fighters to destabilize its neighbors, must end and it must end now. The future belongs to the people of Iran, those who seek peaceful co-existence and cooperation, not the terrorist warlords who plunder their nation to finance bloodshed abroad."
Did Joe have a sex change.
"Clinton was the victim of “unfair” sexist attacks.
But, he added, “That’s not going to happen with me.”
When President Donald Trump gave the order to kill Iran's Quds Force leader Qasem Soleimani, he not only made an arguably proportionate response to the invasion of the U.S. Embassy this week but he also reversed a policy of the Obama administration. According to a report from 2018, Israel was "on the verge" of assassinating Soleimani in 2015, but Obama's officials foiled the plan. In fact, they reached out to Iran with news of Israel's plans.

"The report says Israel was 'on the verge' of assassinating Soleimani three years ago, near Damascus, but the United States warned the Iranian leadership of the plan, revealing that Israel was closely tracking the Iranian general," Haaretz reported.
The incident "sparked a sharp disagreement between the Israeli and American security and intelligence apparatuses regarding the issue." That sounds like an understatement.
President Barack Obama frequently snubbed Israel, considered by many to be America's best ally in the Middle East. Yet the news that the Obama's administration prevented Israel from assassinating the Quds Force leader seems particularly significant, since the Obama administration also kept a list of approximately 500 American soldiers who were murdered by Iranian IEDs. Since the Quds Force spearheads Iran's operations outside the Islamic Republic, Soleimani would arguably be responsible for all of those deaths.
When Trump finally gave the order to kill the Quds Force leader, it came after multiple attacks against Americans and American facilities in Iraq — attacks that arguably traced back to Soleimani himself.

Democrats Call For Flags To Be Flown At Half-Mast To Grieve Death Of Soleimani
WASHINGTON, D.C.—At a press conference held on Capitol Hill Friday, mourning Democrat leaders called for flags to be flown half-mast to honor the death of Qasem Soleimani.
Flags were spotted flying at half-mast around the country, notably at The Washington Post, The New York Times, and in front of several celebrities' homes. The celebrities went out and bought an American flag for the first time just to fly it at half-mast for this important time of grief.
"The grieving process is painful but necessary," said Rep. Ilhan Omar. "As a nation, we need to stop and grieve this great, austere, revered religious scholar. He was one of the good ones."
In a rare moment of unity with The Squad, Pelosi gave each of the girls a hug, telling them to just "let it all out" in their time of sadness.
Ocasio-Cortez didn't seem to know what was happening but adjusted her glasses to look smart.
A teary-eyed Barack Obama was also seen solemnly lowering the flag in front of his seaside mansion. "To think, this all could have been prevented with a few pallets of cash." He sighed and stared off into the distance, a look of pain and regret on his face. "If only Trump had targeted a U.S. citizen with a drone strike instead."
Later, Democrats clarified they meant we should fly the Iranian flag at half-mast, not the "offensive and problematic" American flag.
very good alky.

Former Fox News reporter Courtney Friel says that Donald Trump propositioned her before he was elected president while both were married, and that the come-on compromised her reporting on his presidential campaign.
Friel wrote in her new memoir “Tonight At 10: Kicking Booze and Breaking News” that Trump called her “the hottest one at Fox News,” according to the New York Daily News, which reported it viewed an excerpt.
Trump, in a phone call, complimented Friel’s work and asked about career goals before getting more personal, she wrote. “Out of nowhere, he said: ‘You should come up to my office sometime, so we can kiss.’”
Friel said she pointed out that both were married and “quickly ended the call.”
“This proposition made it difficult for me to report with a straight face on Trump running for president,” she wrote, per the Daily News. “It infuriated me that he would call all the women who shared stories of his bold advances liars. I totally believe them.”
- Trump never made a deal he didn't break
- He never had a trade war he didn't lose
- He never had an allie he didn't betray
- He never had a co-conspirator he wouldn't throw under the bus
- He never ran an election without foreign help
- He never had a wife he didn't cheat on
Asked to reveal the targets of Soleimani's planned attacks, Trump's national security adviser, Robert O'Brien, tells press on a briefing call certain info "extraordinarily sensitive" but what he can say is the Iranian general was a terrorist operating for 20 years in the region.
Dream on sad sack.
Looks like Trump ain’t done. Doing the job Obunghole wouldn’t do
An airstrike Friday hit two cars carrying members of an Iran-backed militia north of Iraq's capital, Baghdad, killing five people, an Iraqi official told The Associated Press.
The official added that the identities of those killed were not immediately known. It was not immediately clear who launched the strike, but a U.S. official told AP the attack was not an American military attack.
The strike was confirmed by the Iran-backed Popular Mobilization Forces, which denied that any of its top leaders were among the five killed. The group said the strike targeted one of its medical convoys.
The latest operation came almost exactly 24 hours after a U.S. airstrike killed Iranian general Qassem Soleimani, leader of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' (IRGC) elite Quds Force, and nine others at Baghdad International Airport.
Bloomberg has bought his way to a tie at #3 with Pocahountis In a Socialist Democrat Party Poll.
Saying the situation in the Persian Gulf had now reached "a boiling point," Sen. Tim Kaine introduced a War Powers resolution on Friday in an effort to stop the Trump administration from waging war on Iran.
"For years, I've been deeply concerned about President [Donald] Trump stumbling into a war with Iran," said Kaine (D-Va.). "We're now at a boiling point, and Congress must step in before Trump puts even more of our troops in harm's way. We owe it to our servicemembers to have a debate and vote about whether or not it's in our national interest to engage in another unnecessary war in the Middle East."
The Senate is obligated to vote on the legislation, as War Powers resolutions are privileged.
The measure, which has Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) as a co-sponsor, says that the 2001 and 2002 Authorizations for Use of Military Force (AUMFs) provide no authorization for waging war against Iran and calls for the president to remove troops from engaging in hostilities against Iran within 30 days "unless explicitly authorized by a declaration of war or specific authorization for use of military force."
"I feel it is very foolish for the us to be involved in another war in the the Middle East," Kaine told MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell Friday afternoon. "But however you think about that question—Should we be at war?—I do know this. We should not go to a war with Iran based on a presidential decision with no consultation of Congress."
"We should not be committing our troops to war unless Congress has the guts to debate and vote that it's in the national interest," he added.

@timkaine
I just filed a resolution to prevent Trump from starting a war with Iran. The President wants to pretend that Congress doesn't exist, but it's our clear Constitutional duty to debate and vote before allowing him to rush into an unnecessary war.

President Trump’s trade war has hit agriculture and manufacturing hard, causing lower demand for companies that move freight. But railroad stocks soared in 2019 after rail executives embraced automation and cost-cutting to remain profitable, doubling down on the idea that rail’s future entails longer, faster trains and fewer workers.
More than 20,000 rail workers have lost their jobs in the past year, the biggest layoffs in rail since the Great Recession and a nearly 10 percent decline in rail employment, according to Labor Department data through November.
Volumes are down so much on major American railways in the past year that some economists say the nation is in the midst of a “freight recession.”
Freight declines have typically foreshadowed trouble for the broader economy because they’re a barometer of how much stuff is heading to market. Every economic downturn since World War II has been precipitated by nose-diving freight traffic. There have also been periods such as 2015-16 when manufacturing, trucking and rail suffer, but the rest of the economy keeps growing.

“Had we been presented such an opportunity, what we would have done is weigh very carefully and very deliberately the risks versus the potential rewards,” Rice told MSNBC's Rachel Maddow."

Trump Plunges Towards Conflict He Pledged to Avoid
“With a single momentous decision to authorize a drone strike killing a top Iranian commander in Baghdad, President Trump immediately thrust himself into the center of a volatile and unpredictable region — taking his presidency into just the kind of foreign entanglement he pledged to avoid,” the Washington Post reports.
“Trump followed early Friday’s targeted strike on Qasem Soleimani — the leader of Iran’s special-operations forces abroad — with a decision Friday to send an additional 3,500 soldiers to the Middle East to respond to the heightened tensions.
“Coming in quick succession, the drone strike and troop deployment cast Trump as a pivotal figure in what could be America’s next military conflict with a foreign power. The moves also underscored how Trump’s impulsive approach to the presidency can swiftly upend the status quo to produce a sense of disarray.”
How Trump Decided to Kill an Iranian General
Los Angeles Times:
“When President Trump’s national security team came to his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida on Monday, they weren’t expecting him to approve an operation to kill Gen. Qassem Suleimani.”
Washington Post:
“Why Trump chose this moment to explore an operation against the leader of Iran’s Quds Force, after tolerating Iranian aggression in the Persian Gulf for months, was a matter of debate within his own administration. Officials gave differing and incomplete accounts of the intelligence they said prompted Trump to act. Some said they were stunned by his decision, which could lead to war with one of America’s oldest adversaries in the Middle East.”
THE TRUMP ATTEMPTED COVER-UP CONTINUES
White House Withholds 20 Emails on Ukraine Aid
“The Trump administration disclosed on Friday that there were 20 emails between a top aide to President Trump’s acting chief of staff and a colleague at the White House’s Office of Management and Budget discussing the freeze of a congressionally mandated military aid package for Ukraine,” the New York Times reports.
“But in response to a court order that it swiftly process those pages in response to a Freedom of Information Act, or FOIA, lawsuit filed by The New York Times, the Office of Management and Budget delivered a terse letter saying it would not turn over any of the 40 pages of emails — not even with redactions.”
Oh come on James.....Trump is the chosen one and can do no wrong as long as he gives them judges they like, no matter what the cost to the US.....sad how they all hate the country and support Putins' puppet!!!!!!!

Roger and The Mutt Dennis agree. in 2020 The US Economy is NOT an issue.
I hope that the Socialist Democrat who Wins the Nomination believes as those two poop eating mitts do.
poor easily confused poop.eating mutt Dopie.
"As the world reacted Friday to the U.S. killing of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani, Iranian resistance groups hailed the move as a “major blow” for the repressive regime in Tehran -- predicting that it will boost the morale of dissidents and bring what they see as the likely downfall of the regime’s one step closer"
I hope so.
Evidence Suggesting Imminent Attack Was ‘Razor Thin’
January 4, 2020 at 10:14 am EST
New York Times reporter Rukmini Callimachi:
“I’ve had a chance to check in with sources, including two US officials who had intelligence briefings after the strike on Suleimani. Here is what I’ve learned.
According to them, the evidence suggesting there was to be an imminent attack on American targets is ‘razor thin’.”
More:
“One official described the planning for the strike as chaotic. The official says that following the attack on an Iraqi base which killed an American contractor circa Dec. 27, Trump was presented a menu of options for how to retaliate. Killing Suleimani was the ‘far out option.'”
SO NOW TRUMP IS PLAYING WITH WAR AS A MEANS FOR GETTING AN UNPOPULAR PRESIDENT RE-ELECTED.
After the strike, which means the quotes are from democrats. Yawn.
A single strike is now a war? Hyperbole much?
"Trump was presented a menu of options for how to retaliate.
Killing Suleimani was the ‘far out option.'”
Iran thought Trump was all bellicose bluster with no balls. Now they have to think twice when they do something. A smart tactic from Trump.
Oil Companies Tighten Security
January 4, 2020 at 10:05 am EST
Wall Street Journal:
“Oil companies in the Middle East are tightening security as U.S. officials say American energy infrastructure in the region is a likely target for Iranian retaliation following the killing by the U.S. of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander Qassem Soleimani.”
Response to Trump's "smart tactic" which until recently was to get us less, not more, involved.
we must believe the Science
We must agree the Noble Prize is valid
"Frances Arnold, an American scientist and winner of the Nobel Prize in chemistry, retracted a paper published last year after admitting to faulty research."
Nope.
How did the 18 US intelligence community agencies miss the Attack on the US Embassy ?
