The Trump Administration’s decision Thursday night to attack the Baghdad International Airport, assassinating Iran’s top general Qassem Soleimani, was done unilaterally, with signs that very few people were told beforehand; not Congress, not Britain, and certainly not Iraq.
Many weren’t happy about not being given advance notice, and many still aren’t happy now that it’s done, and are looking to distance themselves from the US attack, making clear they weren’t involved.
French FM Jean-Yves Le Drian said that was time for diplomacy, while Saudi Deputy DM Khalid bin Salman urged restraint. Even Israel, normally fan of all roads that lead to a war with Iran, seemed to want to step away from this one.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the assassination “isn’t an Israeli event but an American event We were not involved and should not be dragged into it.” That’s a stunning position for Israel to take, and may reflect Iran’s suggestion that a war with the US could put Israel in the cross-hairs.
Yet the relevant officials in Europe still only urge Iran to be the only signatory to the nuclear agreement who follows any of it. The US is Germany’s ally I guess, no matter how much our dishonored commitments endanger everyone else, and when the US acts badly it’s Iran that must be scolded. Eventually everyone will realize that the US doesn’t really have allies, it has nations it controls by various means.
As it regards Israel as noted in this short piece, I saw the first reactions by Netanyahu when he was at the airport returning home to Israel as a result of the US attack. For all the warmongering he has promoted for war with Iran while he now supported the US action, the man genuinely looked gray…
😩😩😭
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the assassination “isn’t an Israeli event but an American event We were not involved and should not be dragged into it.”
And yet he’s been trying to drag us into war with Iran since at least ’92. Trump was just too belligerent, even for BiBi.
Never believe anything Nutty&Yahoo says, wars .. he’s a pathological liar, as well as a psychopath. He’s behind the murders of IRGC General Qassem Soleimani and 9 others in the convoy traveling toward Baghdad on the VIP road. DJT didn’t just issue the order on his own .. Nutty&Yahoo told him to do it.
And Netanyahu only gets to give Trump orders if Trump decides to let Netanyahu give him orders.
One, and only one, person is responsible for Donald Trump’s actions. That person is Donald Trump.
This action is to please Bibi and his Zionist henchmen. Of course they don’t want to be pulled into it. The ongoing policy in Tel Aviv is, “with your money and lives, and our good looks we can conquer Iran together.”
A woman who criticized the United States on social media for the killing of a top Iranian general was arrested Tuesday in Kosovo.
Ikballe Berisha Huduti will remain in detention for 48 hours pending a court decision for incitement to commit a terrorist offense, Reuters reported.
Prosecutors said Huduti, the founder of a now-defunct pro-Islamic group, posted comments on Facebook that were critical of the Jan. 3 killing of Gen. Qassem Soleimani, the head of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ elite Quds Force, in a drone strike in Iraq last week.
By killing the master of the house you have killed all members of the family, then revenge is obligatory but it has no border,” Huduti wrote. In one post, Huduti described Solemani as a “great man,” Radio Free Europe reported.
“I strongly support #US reaction against Iran’s activities in the Middle East that have caused terror, instability and global concern,” Kosovo’s president, Hashim Thaci, tweeted last week. “We stand together in protecting our values and our way of life and in search of peace and security.”

Fox is embracing it. But the real deal is this nation harbors the sextraffickers , organ harvesters and possibly MEK terrorists .
