Happy New Year!
The Election Year is now truly upon us...it's getting interesting, gang!
President Donald Trump ordered the US military to target Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani, that nation's second most powerful individual and perhaps the world's leading terrorist. Our military was successful in its mission. As fallout from that mission, several things have occurred:
*Iran has withdrawn from the Obama-era nuclear agreement, which was by most accounts weak and worthless, and from which Pres. Trump had already withdrawn America. This showed the true worthlessness of the agreement; and
*Iraq is contemplating throwing US out of Iraq, which is possible only because Pres. Obama and SecState Clinton failed to negotiate a Status of Forces Agreement after the military achievements of the George W. Bush Administration; and
*Democrats are claiming the strike against Soleimani was unlawful, despite the clear authorization inherent in the War Powers Act; and
*"The Squad" is characterizing the strike against Soleimani as a racist attack, despite the fact that Soleimani is an ethnic Aryan (as are all Iranis); and
*President Trump has managed to cause the Democrats in general to align themselves with Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas and against US interests and allies, including Israel and others.
Not bad for a slow news weekend coming back from a vacation!!
