No no no. I’m not part of the “permanent military occupation” crowd just because I’m part of the “We should kill decision makers who orchestrate the killing and maiming of Americans” crowd.

What came first chicken or egg
We can go to 1953 or 28 Bc and argue who did what to who....That’s probably one of the biggest problems with middle easterners They never let shit go and centuries of paybacks still smolder......
I could give two shits who started it, It’s like after we defeated Japan, they became a valued partner, I am under no such illusion with anyone who rides a camel. Trump has promised to kill terrorists and promises he wants no part of regime change, I believe him, He promises to get us out of wars, I believe him, But I am under no illusion that the last promise can be fulfilled by next weekend.

I'm all for any actions that can selectively eliminate enemies like Soleimani.
Kaepernick's statement about our "racist" attack on Iran is so ignorant and so stupid.
His Media Coaches gave their Pet Kafir way too much leash.
The Original Caucasians come from guess where...?
Persia..The Caucasus Mountains.
Persians are also counted as WHITE PEOPLE on the US Census Report.
Israel stands alone in support of Trump [on this matter] and I'll bet the US Jewish Globalist Elite who control our mass media are [silently] in favor of Trump killing Soleimani, even though the Jewish Globalist Elite are the ones who 24/7 transmit the message to their brainwashed Sheeple Masses that Trump is their worst enemy, their biggest threat to national security, the return to 1850s lynchings, slavery, etc..

UPDATED: Breaking: US Preparing To Pull Out Of Iraq?
UPDATE: Good thing I put a question mark in there. The answer for now seems to be: Maybe not. As reported at TGP via Sky news (or vice versa) SecDef Esper says it was just a draft that shouldn't have been released. Hmmm. I was starting to really like the idea. Now that the letter's been released, maybe we should just go ahead?


Zerohedge has a longish account: US Army Tells Iraq It Is Preparing To "Move Out" Out Of "Respect For Sovereignty". The obvious question, based on the letter from Brigadier General Seekly to the Iraqi DoD, is: Is this a complete withdrawal or partial? Here's the letter:

sLTG Abdul Amir
Deputy Director, Combined Joint Operations Baghdad Iraq - Ministry of Defense
Your Excellency,
Sir, in due deference to the sovereignty of the Republic of Iraq, and as requested by the Iraqi Parliament and the Prime Minister, CJTF-OIR will be repositioning forces over the course of the coming days and weeks to prepare for onward movement.
In order to conduct this task, Coalition Forces are required to take certain measures to ensure that the movement out of Iraq is conducted in a safe and efficient manner.
During this time, there will be an increase in helicopter travel in and around the International Zone (IZ) of Baghdad. This increased traffic will include CH47, VH-00, and AH-64 security escort helicopters.
Coalition Forces will take appropriate measures to minimize and mitigate the disturbance to the public. In addition, we will conduct these operations during hours of darkness to help alleviate any perception that we may be bringing more Coalition Forces into the IZ.
As we begin implementing this next phase of operations, I wish to reiterate the value of our friendship and partnership. We respect your sovereign decision to order our departure.
Very Respectfully,
WILLIAM H. SEEKLY III
Brigadier General, U.S. Marine Corps
Commanding General, TF-Iraq

It sure sounds to me like a complete withdrawal. We'll see how it develops.

What do you think Pres. Trump should
have done?

[Donn Beach]

I agree with most of that. Keep in mind, the Iran-Iraq war goes back to the early 80's and Iran would have won that if the U.S. wasn't giving material aid to the Iraqis. Basically, and partly due to the effects of overthrowing Hussein, Iran now has the ability to take control of the entire region step by step one nation at a time. If someone doesn't stop them in Iraq it will become much more difficult to contain them. And, more importantly, the loss of life in surrounding regions could be massive.

again, containment, see Vietnam war...I thought this was the thing Trump campaigned against. That it wasn't up to the US to police the world. If there was one thing i thought i might be in agreement with the man that would have been it

Just occurred to me that there are actually a lot of similarities to how Trump is handling the China trade War and this Iran dust up.

Instead of just going with the status quo and letting then continue to kill us softly, he has drawn a line in the sand and is willing to endure short term pain for long term gain. Once they realize he isn't messing around and won't back down we should be much better off than continuing to quietly losing the trade war with China and continuing to endure death by a thousand terror attacks thanks to Iran.

We will see if it works but I think it is worth a shot and better than the alternative of weak ass appeasement and shaky nuclear deals and sending them $1.5 Billion in hard cold cash.

If Iran were allowed to carry out their empire building unchecked they could gain the economic might to present an existential threat to the U.S.. They could take control of vital shipping lanes and oil fields. Vietnam was a falling domino that by itself represented no such threat. It should be understood also that nuclear deterrent might not work with relgious maniacs in charge.
