Wonder why you guys always start the time frame at that point
Ah .... because that's when the mullahs overthrew their government and became a terrorist state in contemporary history. Before this, they were actually quite western ... not necessarily friendly, but they didn't send suicide bombers on jihad.
Why do you think the strife began in '53? These folks have been warring with the Hebrews for millennia. Another overlooked fact is the redrawn borders by "Hail Britannia" after WWII.
I've no doubt Mossad has passed on many many assassinations. That doesn't support your thesis.
Evidently Suleimani directed the attack on the US Embassy in Iraq. Unlike the previous administration's failure to recognize ... attacking a US Embassy is an act of war. Murdering Joe Q Public is bad and is clearly subject to the law... murdering a cop because he's a cop ... well. That can't be tolerated either.
You'd have a valid point if it can be demonstrated/proven Suleimani was not involved in that Embassy attack.
Yes, I think that he almost brought the whole middle east to an explosive conflict
Trump was doing his job. If you want to believe the conflict is his fault, then that's what you believe. Clearly in the last 48 hours, our restraint, Trump's restraint, has demonstrated your estimation to be a gross error ... not unlike your gross error of popping off about the US Navy bagging the Ukrainian Airline 737 which took-off from Tehran.
I'm sorry you're having such personal difficulty with Trump's being president and particularly with his incredible restraint.
... now ... you have a valid concern about the ME "explosion" ... that's STILL about to happen, and it would regardless of Obama's having a 4th term. But anyhow. Carry on. That's where most democrats are at their best.
