    This is why this strike took place.

    LMFAO!

    When did we have any such POTUS?

    By any metric Obama was a center-left politician.

    When Bernie Sanders is sworn in you'll then know what an "extreme left-wing socialist" looks like.

    Let's walk through this, shall we?

    If I am an architect and I design a house, and begin overseeing its construction but die before it's completed, does construction halt, and the house never gets finished?

    You Trumpist circle-jerkers seem to think that Soleimani was the only man within the entire Iranian military capable of planning a mission.

    If you were an architect and some one killed you because you were building a house they didn't like, do you think the next architect will wonder if he'll meet the same fate?

    Said every Hillary Clinton supporter ever.

    Careful with the absolutes. They have a way of biting you in the ass.

    Sure, I might think it. That does not mean I would give up designing houses. It simply means that I would be much more covert in doing so.

    Dumbasses are those that dont know a president depends upon the military experts to have a strategy.

    Good grief. Stop being silly! Lol

    If you have paid attention the strategy is to goad iran into war. Compliments of pnac foreign policy. Neocons are some crazy bastards. And trump is loaded up with them from day one . For that is what you find in DC.

    Because some writer for the BBC cannot figure out why this terrorist is dead does not mean there in not a strategy behind the act.

    You are correct on the border. I would have done better saying the Soviet Union. I don't know what you're referring to with the Boston Marathon.

    Remind me who the drone strikes were against. ISIS I believe. Hardly the same thing. No, he hasn't delivered.......but he keeps trying.

    Ww2 is our closest example..
    Democrats got thousands of Americans killed in Vietnam because of their stupid political considerations and kept us from any sort of victory.

    Eh, the world, politically speaking, has just dumb and dumber. The best we can hope for is that we're just dumb while other's go all in on dumber.

    The last one is true.

    Obama was bent over the edge of the bed by Iran.. horrible negotiating.. really terrible. Negotiations so bad the likes of which have never been seen. Really terrible and i was saying it the whole time.

    Are you ******** me? Putin and Russian Intelligence contacted our 17 incompetent intelligence agencies about the Boston bombers....the Tsarnaev Brothers....the terrorists....and our shitass FBI dropped the ball. Obongo was president so I guess nobody cared.

    There is no Soviet Union. There will never be another Soviet Union. The Russians don't want to deal with anymore non-Russians.

    Watch these and educate yourself. They have English subtitles.

    I doubt that trump depends on any military experts when he has his brain farts, but given that he’s had to dredge the bottom of the barrel to find anyone still willing to work in his kakistocracy, he could have found his own Curtis LeMay to whisper bullshit in his ear.

    Are you serious? WW2 was fought with no political considerations? Malta ring a bell? I believe there were Republican Presidents during Vietnam so again, what's your point?

    You were saying the whole time and you were wrong the whole time. You think things have been better with Iran the last 3 years?

    You missed the point with the Soviet reference but while there is no Soviet Union, Putin is trying hard for the "good old days". As far as our intelligence services....you mean the same services that informed Trump to help with his assassination.
    Nice to know you and Putin are on the same page.
