    The people who know nothing about this but celebrate it anyways, and don't understand the ramifications for Iran, need to turn the situation upside down and ask themselves something pretty simple:

    What if... Secretary of State Mike Pompeo or another top US military or government official were arriving at an airport in the UK - an ally - and he was killed by a drone stroke launched by Iran - a hostile adversary.

    How do you think we'd react to that as Americans? As a government? As a military?

    Soleimani might have been hugely important for years in terms of Iran's reach and influence on terrorism in the Middle East. But he wasn't a Bin Laden type hiding in the mountains, he was a government official for two decades. His level in government was equivalent to our security of defense or secretary of state positions.

    And to those who say "but he was a bad guy and responsible for a lot of American lives lost," I have to ask the question: Are our secretaries of defense or state so innocent? The United States has waged war around the world for decades, resulting in hundreds of thousands of deaths, many innocent people, attempts at regime change and waging heavy influence on other countries.

    People are being incredibly short-sighted if that don't understand that equivalence, and what this situation will likely kick off.

    • It's all a distraction, from impeachment and to get the red necks on Trumps side for the election.shapesalad
    • Suleimani kills for a day job. It's ok he's gone.robotron3k
    • And I don't disagree with that. My point was / is, if you see it the way I described it, it's easier to understand the gravity of it for Iran.mg33
    • Iran Gov = silly, the people are great and they don't want to fight. The most they can do is mess with the Straights.robotron3k
    • True, our military has not killed in the same way Iran has as a major sponsor of terror. But does Iran not see us as an aggressor the same way we see them?mg33
    • Re: Iranian people: I hope you're right. I've read enough to know that a massive amount of the Iranian people want change.mg33
    • But they have the power and military and reach to fight back a lot worse than Syria or Iraq ever could.mg33
    • You guys focus on the negative of a loco President, you really need to focus on the positive parts of crazy. Trump finishes things.robotron3k
    • You know mg33, we have been hearing of Iran's strength since forever. But why the hell was Suleimani driving in a car unprotected with 2 other terrorists?robotron3k
    • I think you mean Trump "recklessly and impulsively finishes things?" Seriously, where were the Gang of 8 not briefed?mg33
    • Why did Eric Trump elude to something serious coming two days before it happened?mg33

    • Uh...they shot a car with a drone. Not exactly rocket science.yuekit
    • This kind of mentality is what makes me embarrassed to be American. Drooling bloodlust over some guy being killed that you couldn't even name the day before.yuekit
    • Suleimani would get up every AM, get his coffee and think of places to attack and people to kill. What were you saying yuekit?robotron3k
    • Meanwhile we've spent what? $7 trillion on these pointless conflicts, killed hundreds of thousands of people, and gained nothing from it.yuekit
    • The communist left has lost their mind.Hayoth
    • And that makes him somehow different from Trump's buddies in Saudi Arabia? Like the guy who literally chopped up a journalist in an embassy?yuekit
    • Stop pretending, you don't know or care about who he killed or have any idea about the implications at all. You're just happy that the U.S. bombed something.yuekit

    Iran = Your front neighbour
    China = Left nighbour of Iran
    Russia = Right neihbour of Iran

    China help Iran often, plowing the snow in his driveway. Sometimes Iran go give some extra vegetables from their garden to China and Russia. Russia help China renovate his patio and they also gave their, still good, lawnmower to Iran when they bought themselve a new one.

    2 weeks ago, Iran kicked your trash can and all the trash blew in the wind. They wanted to piss you off cuz you guys dont like each other.

    3 days ago, as a revenge, you killed Iran's family dog with your riffle across the street.

    Iran want a revenge cuz they really loved that dog. They threat you.

    You tell them to fuck off or you will blow their car up and kill 2 of their 5 kids.

    Iran can't beat you alone, of course. But Russia and China won't let you hurt them that easily and are offering their help to their good friend Iran to protect them.

  • CygnusZero43

    People that dont think Iran will do anything are morons. They are a far more formidable nation than 90s/2000s Iraq was, and we STILL have not actually won that Iraq war.

    The problem with wars in the middle east is that the mindset of the US being the true terrorists of the world is so widespread over there that when you get into a war with someone like Iraq or Iran, the war spreads far beyond their borders and becomes completely unwinnable. Its like Vietnam but spread over a much larger area, and many, many more millions of people against us than what Vietnam ever had.

    There is a damn good reason why past presidents refused to take this guy out. Everyone knew he was a bad guy, but this may very well head down a road that ultimately may costs 1000s of american soldiers lives, and cost us trillions of dollars, and could sink the world economy. Is one guy who has already been replaced worth all that? Fuck no. The guy that took his place is as much of a problem as he was, so really, we accomplished nothing positive.

    U.S.—A new policy issued by the United States Department of Defense, in conjunction with online platforms like Twitter and Facebook, will automatically enlist you to fight in a foreign war if you post your support for attacking another country.

    People who bravely post about how the U.S. needs to invade some country in the Middle East or Asia or outer space will get a pop-up notice indicating they've been enlisted in the military. A recruiter will then show up at their house and whisk them away to fight in the foreign war they wanted to happen so badly.

    "Frankly, recruitment numbers are down, and we needed some way to find people who are really enthusiastic about fighting wars," said a DOD official. "Then it hit us like a drone strike: there are plenty of people who argue vehemently for foreign intervention. It doesn't matter what war we're trying to create: Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, North Korea, China---these people are always reliable supporters of any invasion abroad. So why not get them there on the frontlines?"

    "After all, we want people who are passionate about occupying foreign lands, not grunts who are just there for the paycheck," he added.

    Strangely, as soon as the policy was implemented, 99% of saber-rattling suddenly ceased.

    It’s all a bit nuts really. We’ve been bombing the Middle East for years. Then giving them bombs to bomb each other. And now we’re still not happy so let’s have another war with them. All because they don't do what we want them to do.

    Why did Trump/US Gov killed Soleimanni suddenly out of no where on January 3rd?

    I'm reading the news and I try to understand. If its only based on an agenda of re-election and impeachment screen... I mean, it's bad, it's really bad... that should be another reason for impeachment!

    No one knows where this is all going, but at the moment, it doesnt look good. Many people will die, again. And we can easily imagine terrorists attacks coming back in force in the West.

    Also, the hate towards Muslims has never been that high, just go on social media, so many ignorant racists dont hide themselves anymore. All this will fuel them up even more.

    All hate, all negativity, all destruction, nothing's positive for anyone with this.

    @mg33:

    I appreciate that you — as an individual — find this situation appalling, because it really is.

    It's not, however, the least bit surprising that this happened.

    The view from outside your country is this: if there's one thing — and one thing only — you Americans love more than your previous guns, it's a good old-fashioned war. You worship it. You celebrate it. It's almost a religion. Not only that, you're collectively so convinced of your inherent superiority relative to the rest of us, that war-starting is a must to maintain the illusion.

    Look at the final two candidates in your previous presidential election: a Clinton, whose hubs fancied himself a nice little dust-up when his back was against the wall (though, to be fair, it happened in his second term when he wasn't up for re-election, but still), and who herself couldn't be trusted to not start one of her own; and candidate #2 was a rank moron, the village idiot, who couldn't foreign policy his way out of a wet paper bag.

    The candidate your 'great' electoral system went with is the idiot. The one who is owned by the Russians. The one whose apparent purpose is to piss off your allies, and destabilise a world order that has kept things in relatively good working shape since the end of the second world war.

    Now, before QBN's own village idiots start accusing me of being a Clinton fan, I am not. She gave me the creeps, and couldn't be trusted any more than the orange knuckle-dragger can be.

    But, here's why I brought up the fact you people love war so much: the idiot is in an election year, and he's using this particular occasion to distract from his troubles. And you know what's even more galling? It's going to work. He'll be seen as a 'hero' but the ones who matter the most: the electorate, and he's going to get re-elected thanks to it.

    So, now think about the implications of this latest incident:

    • The world will become even more destabilised — economically, socially, and politically, quite possibly leading to even more alienation of allies and 'friends';
    • The chances of an all-out war have increased dramatically, which would result in stomach-turning civilian casualty figures;
    • The likelihood of terrorist counter-attacks in US allied countries around the world — especially in Europe, but don't discount something happening on your soil, too — also resulting in even more civilian deaths.

    So, conceivably, all of this chaos and spilled blood will happen all because one old white guy is trying to save his political skin, and the culture of warmongering and violence in your country will permit it to happen.

    Is any this really good, right, and proper in your view?

    • The fetishization of the military in the USA and "precision killing" is obscene. There's maybe a few regimes out there that compare or possibly outdo the statesben_
    • Continuity do u really believe Trump is a russian owned asset? And for an anti war guy i'd think you be happy to hold off a killing this late.deathboy
    • and robotron is correct in germanys needing defense. post wwII rules fucked them but as part we got nato, similar to japan.deathboy
    • but that wasnt in defense of robo more of a geo political incentive nature. especially with nato and eu politics. If you cant rely on US who will u rely on?deathboy

    • Yep, what could possibly go wrong? Of course U.S. conservatives all thought Iraq was a great idea too.yuekit
    • this is one of those "fuck of course this is how 2020 starts" moments. the potential escalation here is terrifying.colin_s

    • @gnash Obviously not a carrier, but it was the closest thing they had to a flattop. It might have been used in mining operations.garbage

    If the World goes mad with nuclear war, this is where i will go. This is the most far a road can go up North in Quebec. In hope i'll be far enough of all the blasts in the south.

    • insane if realPonyBoy
    • I think I'd avoid flying in planes anywhere near Iran/Ukraine/etc.formed
    • Of course its a missile, I knew it the second the news got out.Bennn
    • It would be a great coincidence that this is a pure accident with everything that is going on right nowBennn
    • and when I say 'accident' i mean a mechanical problem or something. Cuz the missile is probably an accident. They prob thought it was a military plane.Bennn
    • Don't even understand why they would allow passenger airplanes to take off under these circumstances. Sad shit.mathinc
