Trying to be objective

If not for double standards and all that.

Notice that almost ALL our allies, including hardliners like Netanyahu, want no part of this. Because…it was supah dupah dumb.

And because they don’t care if Americans are killed. They want Iranian oil.

[Covfefe]

@DougBH

That remains to be seen.

That’s a huge bet. You are betting Iran will no longer engage in any actions that harm the US. And if they do, are you comfortable with war?

When Obama killed Bin Laden the left gushed over him endlessly.

Didn’t matter what anyone overseas thought.

If not for double standards.

Killing Bin Laden was smart policy supported by ALL our allies. Killing Soleimani was dumb and rash and is not supported by almost any of our allies.

See the difference?

Did killing Osama Bin Laden increase the likelihood of war with anyone?

This analogy is so hopelessly inadequate but I realize when attempting to rationalize, one needs to try and glom on to anything they can, no matter how tenuous…

And as so many of you are using this ridiculous analogy, I am willing to bet it’s making the rounds on the CEC…

I see the excuses for a double standard.

Write a letter to all of our allies expressing your anger that they are hypocrites. I’m sure they’ll be interested in your opinion.

At some point it has to become clear that the President ****** up.

Right?

Arousing people to violence who already hate what you stand for, does not indicate that you have ****** up. Even Jesus aroused people to violence who hated what he stood for.

Right?

But lets jump in there and attack before it is clear as to whether this was a mistake or a benefit. I mean, after all, Trump. You don’t need any more than that.

Right?

A month ago there were massive protests against the Iranian government.

Now?

That’s after we invaded a whole country to get rid of him. And act of which Obama approved.

We invaded Afghanistan because they were harboring Al Qaeda. Come on man.

Who was head of Al Quaeda? The claim just made was that an attack on bin Laden was an attack on Al Quaeda. They are not different things.

No the claim was that Bin Laden was stateless.

He wasn’t representing anyone but himself.

When there are other avenues to get what you want that you deliberately cut off, while raising the danger to the people and the nation you are supposed to be protecting…then you have indeed ■■■■■■ up.

The opposite of not killing Suleimani is not supporting Iran’s behavior.

Do some of you never tire of false dichotomies and bad analogies?

I was referring to democrats of course. As for allies i don’t think you speak for them nor do i particularly care whether they agree with us about everything or not.

Appeasement doesn’t work with terrorists.

When it was Obama killing Osama, killing Americans mattered.
It was considered justification enough.
No one cared about how some people in the ME might have felt about it.

Osama Bin Laden was the operative leader of a nationless band of Islamic terrorists. Soleimani was the main military leader of a sovereign nation. Why is this complicated?

We all know this is not complicated.

Welcome to the rodeo. It’s not our first.

Americans should have gushed over the fact that OBL was dead.

But the right pouted because it happened under Obama.

A factual statement based on decades of observing the democrat party.

Americans should be gushing over this dead terrorist but yet the left pouts.

Right?

Already obviously a mistake…

1- it caused Iraq to vote to eject our military presence.
2- It is causing Iraq to develop even closer relations with Iran.
3- It allows us no diplomatic off ramp if Iran retaliates. The only next stop is war.
4- none of our allies, even hardliners like Netanyahu support this.

Huge…mistake.

Alternative…allow more Americans to be killed by Iran.
No, the US did not make a new enemy of Iran. It has always been such, in recent history.
It surprises me that American retaliation for the killing of Americans and the prevention of future planned killings is seen as a provocative action by some Americans.

So we couldn’t have him assassinated and frame someone?

Why?..
