Maybe they were working together.

Qasem Soleimani, the head of Iran’s external terrorism forces eliminated overnight Friday by a U.S. drone strike, oversaw every military decision taken by Iran in Latin America, according to a report by the Argentine news network Infobae last year.
Soleimani ran the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Quds Force, the “elite” terrorism unit responsible for, along with Hezbollah, the 1994 bombing of the Argentine-Israeli Mutual Association (AMIA) headquarters in Buenos Aires. The attack was the deadliest in the Western Hemisphere prior to September 11, 2001, killing 85 people.
Soleimani took over the Quds Force after that attack, in 1998, and focused much of his legacy on Iran’s conquests in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen. Most recently, the Pentagon revealed they believed him responsible for organizing the attack on the U.S. embassy in Baghdad this weekend.
President Donald Trump designated the IRGC a foreign terrorist organization last year.

“All Iranian Military Decisions “ ANYWHERE ran thru Soleimani
Did he get Lurch’s concurrence?
I see a little bit of Putin in Trump. That’s good.
People here don’t realize how subject these LatAm governments are to the Marxist and Islamist countries, ranging from Cuba in this hemisphere to Iran, particularly through Hezbollah, which has been very influential in Latin America, particularly Argentina (witness the bombings of Jewish institutions).
Maybe they were working together.
The bottom line is we removed a piece of vermin off this Earth forever. We know the Swamp is gripping over this, not because of the imminent threat of war between us and Iran, but because Soleimani and the rest of the Iranian leadership has financial connections to our Deep State critters in Congress and the federal government.
I must admit having a certain grudging respect for ol’ Vlady.
He’s an SOB, but he’s an SOB for Mother Russia.
I hope Trump and Putin will bury the hatchet once and for all.
USA and Russia should have at least an understanding — if not actually a partnership — in resisting Islamic imperialism.
And it’s hard to imagine Putin seeing the Chicoms as anything but “frenemies.”
Besides, how can one hate a culture that gave us Tchaikovsky and Shostakovich, Dostoevsky and Solzhenitsyn?
Bkmrk.
And just one military decision in the White House ran right through Soleimani.
