When President Donald Trump gave the order to kill Iran's Quds Force leader Qasem Soleimani, he not only made an arguably proportionate response to the invasion of the U.S. Embassy this week but he also reversed a policy of the Obama administration. According to a report from 2018, Israel was "on the verge" of assassinating Soleimani in 2015, but Obama's officials foiled the plan. In fact, they reached out to Iran with news of Israel's plans.
The Trump administration, on the other hand, gave Israel a green light to assassinate Soleimani, according to a January 1, 2018 report from the Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida. The paper quoted a source in Jerusalem as saying that "there is an American-Israeli agreement" that Soleimani is a "threat to the two countries' interests in the region." According to Haaretz, Al-Jarida is generally assumed to be a platform for the Israeli government to disseminate its message to other Middle Eastern governments.
According to the report, the agreement between Israel and the U.S. came three years after Washington thwarted an Israeli attempt to kill the Iranian general.
"The report says Israel was 'on the verge' of assassinating Soleimani three years ago, near Damascus, but the United States warned the Iranian leadership of the plan, revealing that Israel was closely tracking the Iranian general," Haaretz reported.
The incident "sparked a sharp disagreement between the Israeli and American security and intelligence apparatuses regarding the issue." That sounds like an understatement.

Well the Iranian mole, Valerie Jarrett, was the real power in the “Obama” Administration
According to a report from 2018, Israel was “on the verge” of assassinating Soleimani in 2015, but Obama’s officials foiled the plan. In fact, they reached out to Iran with news of Israel’s plans.

Just another example of why the founders were correct to restrict the office to natural born citizens only.
Obama is not one.
None of the popular children of foreign nationals are.
They were all born with divided citizenship.
Just out of curiosity - what’s happening in front of the US Embassy in Baghdad today?
Probably not much.
Probably at worst a job fair for terrorists. Plenty of openings and a chance for a quick retirement. Only problem for new applicants is that they have to prove they hate America more than our democrats and MSM do. Not an easy task.
Will Valerie Jarrett be traveling to Iran to attend the memorial service for Soleimani?
Treason.
How many Americans were killed by this POS since Obongo stopped Israel? Don’t expect any MSM outlet to ask that question.
How many thousands died because obama failed to do his duty?
The embassy is in the Green Zone. Entrance has been blocked off.
I am generally a fan of Israel, but telling the #1 enemy of Israel that they wanted to take out Israel's #2 enemy was foolish. Of course Barack Hussein warned Iran.
[[In fact, they reached out to Iran with news of Israel’s plans.]]
Liberals have some freakin gall accusing Trump of colluding with the Ukraine, when they, the dems, were guilty of Collaborating with terrorists to protect them
There was a time years ago where I might have responded that you’re preaching to the choir here, but just check my recent posting history for the response by the faithful here to any perceived impugnment of their own preferred ineligible POTUS “candidates”’
Goes along with bammy’s gift of 150 billion of our dollars to iran, plus the bogus nuclear deal. bammy is NOT a loyal American! The biggest hoax was pulled on the American people for 8 years!
"Attacks against us will be met with responses in the time, manner and place of our choosing."
There are many here that oppose upholding that particular part of the Constitution.
As we found out during the Kenyanesian Usurpation:
Forfeit part, lose all.
[I am generally a fan of Israel, but telling the #1 enemy of Israel that they wanted to take out Israel’s #2 enemy was foolish. Of course Barack Hussein warned Iran. ]
Valerie Jarrett was and is a super terrorist America hater. Room 101!
