Asura:
According to US laws, the iranian revolutionary guard is a terrorist organisation hence the justification for his murder. Besides the guy is a known evil.

USA is being idiotic. Trump, Pence and Pompeo cannot provide evidence about the imminent threat they said made them kill the guy. They have repeatedly refused to present it. They rather have been contradicting each other on why they did it. This means no such evidence exists.

How can they be terrorists when they fought against ISIS and Al Qaeda and defeated them in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Afghanistan?

Significantly, they helped protect the 1.2m christian minority in Syria against ISIS and the evangelicals in Syria are celebrating Soleimani and even held a church mass in his honour at Alepo.

Trump and his admin are chronic liars.

youre an ignorant fellow...so they just killed him right?




Trapping:
US will pay dearly for this folly. Killing a government official OPENLY (Not in a war theatre) and admitting to it, is the most foolish thing that has been done since world warII.

What Trump had effectively done by Killing Soleimani is that he has established that in this war of attrition between nations killing foreign diplomats is a fair game.

I repeat, going after a diplomat and killing him publicly is a no-no and I believe the US will regret this action, and this may hurt trumps chance of reelection. Iran is no pushover!!

Hmmmm


Some people think Iran will only be the ones with casualties?

US go hear am.

This is a war propelled by so many things, revenge, religion, etc.

Iranians so much loved the man that was openly assassinated. If they tell trump now to drop the evidence that the man killed is a terrorist, will he?

Trump perceived him as a terrorist and killed him, they have set a precedence that any citizen or government official of any country can be labeled anything and be killed anywhere in the world. because the world kept quiet to this. I am not saying that he is not a terrorist. Neither am I saying that Iran will win US. But we know US involvement in so many countries like Libya and other countries.just recently, we are hearing about their involvement in stopping the annihilating Boko Haram.


Iran cannot just go to war with US, ee get reason, ee get wetin de give them moral.

The Iranian attacks were just a face saving act... I don't expect US or Trump to retaliate... Back channel diplomacy.
More meaningful revenge will come much more later through the usual proxies used by the Iranians in which case they'll deny as usual, but the US will still be aware of this possibility and as expected, are putting measures in place to check it.

Though I'll prefer swift response from Trump and counter force from Iran... The world is too boring lately.. they should spice it up a bit.. undecided

Your own views bah?
Have ever make comprehensive search on why Soleimani was killed?

Does it occur to you that this terrorist has been on so many countries watch list?

Do you know the thousands of innocent life that this Soleimani has sent to early grave?

Pls do more research on why Soleimani was killed.

We can not lament over a terrorist been killed said by MORRIS. You think he doesn't know what he's saying bah?

N2B2:
Other presidents had the option to dispatch Soleimani, but they forewent it because US already had Iran in a good place.

Mr. Impeached could not seat still because new impeachment evidence against him was coming to light by the hour, so he went to do what he predicted in 2011 that Obama would do to get re-elected: declare war on Iran.

Iran is three times bigger than Iraq, and US spent more than a decade warring Iraq. Anyone who says It'll be easy to wipe out Iran must be eating a plate of half-fried akara with a can of Black Bullet.
That was when we had weak presidents like obama in charge .
The first us iraqi war dint last more than 2 weeks . The next lasted for like a month.
We all saw how Obama kept pampering isis n made them killl n destroy innocent citizens for many years until trump came n destroyed them .
Iran wud not last 6 months even without the use of nuclear weapons by the us .

War is not entirely about budget. Iran is a country with terrain like a fortress.

Iraq with open terrain had USA spending over 10yrs in the war not to talk about Iran with different and intimidating topography.

USA cannot enter Iran as they did Iraq. They will depend on aerial attacks. Iran are no push overseas bro do not be deceived.

Every single USA base in the middle east is within reach of her missiles

Plus USA aircraft carriers have Irani submarines to deal with

thrash! how? how many real US citizens in the army are on that mission? A Iranian-American Naval commandant is leading the charge against Iran , the war is not even going on in their own territory because they always ensure they take the war away from their own territory by making your country the battle field .

they control everything by proxy using the satellite , the plane crash that happened an hour after they were attacked may not be unconnected with them, hijacking the plane via autopilot and crashed it,

see, the Americans know your house, you think they were stupid when they were mapping the world, buying Google, buying what's app, buying Android.
they have monitored that man calls / activities before taken him out.

Iranians don't even have their own OS for phone on the Internet , they are using MAC OS, Windows , Google ETC and they think they can plan anything without the US knowing?

Iran can't win US with these Toyota Dyna s

Why did USA shoot down an Irani civilian aircraft some years ago killing 290 on board and claim it was a mistake. Iran kept their calm despite losing 290 to an unprovoked attack.

You all think USA is innocent when USA has been the aggressor 90% of the time

Yesterday Pompeo was asked for the 3rd time to show this evidence about an imminent threat that made them kill the guy he declined to do so. This Is unlike the USA. If there was evidence they would have provided it.

Besides the guy was on a peace mission mediating between Iraq and Saudi Arabia when he was killed and Trump was aware of the peace mission but still killed him

The Iranian General was planning an attack against US citizens, the report says. And let me tell you, Trump is not like one lifeless man in villa to fold his hands and watch his people die.

Go check the history of Iran and USA, that General has been tracked and monitored for years. In my opinion, he was simply a Terrorist.

And for get Iran firing miscalculated missiles, I call it miscalculated because up till now, no US casualty has been recorded. If you US stands to face them, they will be leveled in just a week.

I just hope it doesn't escalate to war.

The man was on a peace mission in Iraq. Trump knew about it, Saudi Arabia knew about it and Iraq knew about it because he was mediating between Iraq and Saudi Arabia.

There was no planned attack against american citizens.
