But here are the facts:

-Qassem Soleimani was not a terrorist, he was the General of Iran's elite Quds Force, which had a hand in fighting the Islamic State militant group. He was practically second in command, hence "a world leader". Calling him a terrorist is incorrect and reeks of Right Wing "Patriotic" propaganda.

-Iranian, Russian, and Chinese relations are well documented. They absolutely would support Iran, just as they have in the past. (Source) So before any of you all get huffy about my apparent lack of knowledge why don't you go sit your retired butts on that sofa and turn on the History channel that has replayed all of this for the past decade, as starters, then do your own research.

-All of this, and none of you can still come up with a rational excuse as to the 1 month complete 180 in policy. Are we leaving? Are we going? How many more troops are going to be sent there? For what purpose?

Oh that's right. None of you have an answer. You're too busy lathering your warmongering to actually use your brain and figure out exactly what Trump is doing. I'll quote the man himself. From 2011.

And libs like you supported Obama kissing the Iranian's azz and sending them billions of US dollars in cash in the middle of the night. You libs are the cancer in this country and if it were left up to idiots like you we would all just roll over and surrender to those that hate the freedoms we enjoy in this country. Many thousands of brave souls have given their lives so people like you can express your thoughts without fearing being silenced. You go ahead and hate this country. I have no doubt that leftists like you are hoping that there is a response by Iran that kills thousands of innocent Americans so you can say "we told you so". You are a cancer to this country, but you are free in this country to express your opinions, while those on the left work hard everyday to silence those that they disagree with.
