“Pelosi says Trump launched strike killing Iranian general without authorization”
W-R-O-N-G
Iraq is part of the constantly updated AUMF (Authorized Use of Military Force) which Congress passed to provide the President a quick reaction platform against terrorism.
The strike that killed the Iranian terrorist leader General Soleimani was in Iraq.
B-O-O-M!!!!
(pun intended)
For those not in the know (as reported at Fox News) “…Soleimani was the long-running leader of the elite intelligence wing called the Quds Force — a special forces external arm of the IRGC responsible for supporting terrorist proxies across the Middle East. It reports directly to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and was itself designated a terror group in 2007…American officials have condemned the Quds Force as being responsible for spreading Iran’s Islamic revolution, supporting terrorists, subverting pro-Western governments and waging Iran’s foreign wars.” (bold, u/l emphasis added)
Soleimani’s terrorist-planning activities were widespread…and ongoing. To think that he didn’t qualify for immediate reduction to room-temp status is to deny today’s reality.
Anyone who thinks it was wrong to take out this guy needs psychiatric help.
