Iran will likely try to build a multipolar group to investigate the crash, ie. having Russia or China participate as a form of oversight so the same thing doesn't happen as did with the MH17 'investigation'. -

Suggestions from military twitter is that they were mess halls and temporary living areas. Looks like they were demonstrating that the casualties would've been massive if they hadn't called ahead. -
2020-01-09 at 3:53 AM UTCPompeo and his team testified to the senate today, and they could not give them an example of an actual imminent threat that prompted the assassination. When the questions got tough Pompeo told them not to question this, insinuating they were maligning our government. Questions got tougher and they walked out on the senate.
2 republican senators admonished trump big time. Mike Lee said “this is insane”, among other things. He was not happy, neither was Rand Paul. I’m sure many others were disgusted but kept their mouth shut.
Sounds like a dictatorship to me.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

lol, Soleimani actually helped tried to gather Muslim support for the US in Afghanistan because the Taliban were a common enemy... Until Bush started his 'axis of evil' spiel. -

would we?
we had our chance to go full blown war with these 12 missiles taking down bases with not a single scratch to any usa soldier.

wut
Which US soldiers' deaths was he implicated in? The whole 'supplying explosive penetrators to Iraqi militias' thing was proven to be a CIA concoction simply because they were ashamed that they had no way to counter shitty Iraqi roadside bombs. He's personally done far more to crush ISIS and Al-Qaeda than almost anyone else... Which is one of the reasons the US hated him so much. -
