    Looks like Trump is backing up his words

    Looks like some crap hitting the fan over in Baghdad seems like an Iranian General has been killed. Everything is sketchy right now but it looks like it's going to be a pretty big story

    I figure a war with Iran is inevitable, it's just a question of how soon. We could find out when we wake up in the morning.

    Not sure if it was the head of THE snake, but it damn sure sounds like a snake got killed.

    It appears the General's passing has caused dancing in the streets in Iran....................

    And if we see more bad snake behavior - may death welcome the snakes.

    I'm curious, why take him out on Iraqi soil?

    I'm thinking that's one of the best places. He is supplying and supporting Iraqi insurgents, the same people we are fighting. Being on the ground in Iraq, to me, makes him an enemy combatant and fair game. If we killed him in Iran, that would be an act of war against Iran.

    Because thats where he was. Some are speculating he was there to help coordinate the embassy attack. Others of us don't care as long as he's dead.

    Obama’s bunch warned off Iran and Soleimani in 2015 from an Israeli plan to take out the terrorist mastermind when the Israelis tracked him while he was in Syria. I remember reports of this treachery at the time.

    If Pelosi continues to wonder why she and her Democrat brood were not consulted, perhaps she should search her memory banks on this incident.

    It seems Iran is the main entity creating trouble in the middle east, I think if we were quick to put them in their place like we did Saddam in the mother of all battles that there would be a lot less trouble all around over there. I just can't help but wonder where Russia is fitting or will fit into the back end of all this if an ending ever shows itself anyway.

    That's my concern. I don't see them letting us just walk into Iran like we did Iraq.

    We are so mired in the mess over there it really doesn't matter who we kill. I'll predict we never get out of there since there will always be a "bad guy" that wants to do harm to us.

    9/11 was 18 years ago and we still can't bail out.

    The best idea is not us swapping blows with Muzzies; it is keeping the various Muzzies swapping blows with each other.
    The Iraqis are going to demand we leave Iraq tomorrow. We need to leave.
