Iraqi TV and U.S. sources confirmed the leader of the Iranian Revolution Guard’s elite black ops Quds Force Thursday, along with the Iraqi leader of an Iran-aligned militia reportedly responsible for the attack on the U.S. embassy and the rocket attacks that killed a U.S. contractor and wounded U.S. soldiers. Iran’s Qassim Soleimani and Iraq’s Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis were killed in American airstrikes near Baghdad International Airport.
The news comes as Iran and the United States appear to be lumbering toward a new Middle East war. Days before, the United States al-Muhandi’s Khataib Hezbollah of rocket attacks that killed and wounded Americans. The U.S. military launched several retaliatory airstrikes on the group, destroying headquarters and weapons storage in Iraq and Syria and killing scores of militiamen. Iran promised swift retribution, with its affiliated militiamen storming the U.S. embassy in Baghdad in a multi-day attack allowed to take place by Iraqi troops guarding the heavily fortified Green Zone.
Soleimani has been a constant if shadowy figure in the Middle East, appearing where conflicts rage and disappearing just as quickly. His elite Quds Force carries out irregular warfare and intelligence for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, the enforcers of the ayatollahs’ revolution and the holders of Iran’s nuclear technology. Forces under Soleimani’s command are reportedly responsible for the deaths of at least 500 U.S. military personnel during the Iraq War.
Soleimani, 62, was head of the elite Quds Force since 1988. In those years it has been reported active in Iraq, Syria, Germany, India, Afghanistan, South America and Washington, D.C.

Saw a complete update on Sean Hannity last night. Jason Chaffetz was sitting in for Sean Hannity. Plus watched Fox and Friends this morning and was able to hear Secretary of State Pompeo speak.
Congratulations to our Military for bringing down an evil man who was going to continue his terror against Americans. Thank you President Trump for your actions as this shows Americans and those around the World that you put America First and will not tolerate threats against Americans and our allies. Also loved seeing the video Sec. of State Pompeo put up showing the Iraqi citizens celebrating in the streets because this evil man was terrorizing them as well.
Whatever happens in the future, I, as an American citizen, know that President Trump, our Commander in Chief will always protect our Military and will send the message, don’t tread on Us. That politics have been put aside, which it should be on these most important decisions, even though the Past Administration and those Democrats now howling about what happened has only used politics. Actually siding with a terrorist who spewed hatred not only for Americans, but innocent people in the Middle East.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!

lol, you haven’t even notified the Senate about impeachment. Heck, you were working on it for 2-1/2 years, and still working on your quid pro quo.
I know you didn’t notify the House Republicans when Foreign National IT were hacking the House Democrats, allowing secret classified information to go out to whoever was the highest bidder. You and Paul Ryan made sure of that.
In my opinion, You are the enemy of this Great Nation. And with the way Democrats leak everything, why should anyone trust you with sensitive information against a terrorist. Especially one who is pissed that the World President’s Iran Deal didn’t go thru because the America First President saw it for what it was. That’s truly one of the reasons you wanted him out.
Go away Nancy. Go clean up your district as it’s really nasty.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!

“Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova condemned the killing, failing to defend Soleimani and instead claiming that any targeted military strike against a legitimate enemy of a state must go through the United Nations. Zakharova accused Washington of violating international law by acting against a leader within a designated terrorist organization.”
lol, don’t care what the UN (World President Obama’s 57 states) says. You seem to have forgotten, or did Nancy Pelosi along with her Democratic/Rino coup members say, just give us a little time and the impeachment will work.
America First President Trump does not sit idly by, allowing TONS of leaked sensitive information to get into the hands of terrorists, Russia and China like the World President Obama did.
UN no longer controls the US. We the People have a Commander in Chief that will NOT allow terrorist to plan more violence against Americans or our allies. BTW where is the UN regarding the innocent Iraqi people and Iran people that are suffering under this terrorist regime? Crickets……
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!

“That is a foreign policy and a national security policy run amok.”
Your policy of allowing the Awans to hack the DNC and Democratic Caucus was a TRUE National security risk. But I guess that was the Democrats Foreign policy?
You should be in Jail. Not still in Congress.
“What I think is going on here, frankly, is that this action was taken more in President Trump’s self-interest rather than our national interests. We had damning developments in just the last day, where emails came out that made it very clear that they covered up the real reason behind the withholding of hundreds of millions of dollars to Ukraine. Donald Trump was just impeached a week and a half ago. And we need to get to the bottom of how and who helped him carry out this illegal cover-up to allow him to withhold aid to help him politically and personally, allowing Ukraine to interfere in the presidential election in 2020. That’s outrageous, and I think that has a lot to do with what this attack was about.”
Wow, delusional. Self serving? What did you do rigging the Democratic election for Hilary? How about Obama spying on an Presidential Candidate? And regarding Ukraine, what about the quid pro quo of Biden for Hunter’s sake? How about Kerry’s step son on the board too? And let’s not forget Pelosi’s son.
Your impeachment scam FAILED miserably. The House Democrat Majority wasted SO much time and SO much money to cover up that it was actually the Democrats who were in trouble.
Again you should be in jail for allowing a Foreign National that was NOT vetted to hack into the DNC server, along with the Democratic Caucus. And also let’s not forget Hilary’s private server being hacked. But then again, covering up, and using the fake news media to spin a fabrication IS self-serving on your part.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!

No wonder the World President Obama and his democratic ilk wanted to keep the border open.
“The blossoming of Iranian regime control points in South America followed warnings from the Pentagon that the Quds Force was actively expanding in Latin America in 2010.”
“A more recent report from the Congressional Research Service, published in October, warned that “Iran has cultivated relations with leaders in Latin America that share Iran’s distrust of the United States, and it has sought to position IRGC-QF [Quds Force] operatives and Hezbollah members in Latin America to potentially carry out terrorist attacks there.”
Wow so glad President Trump PUSHED for that Border wall. They would have carried out terrorist attacks HERE, if Hilary had gotten in. No wonder the Dems hate Ice as well. Has nothing to do with just illegal aliens but terrorist as well coming into this Nation.
World President Obama absolutely ignored EVERYTHING, all for his Iran Deal legacy. Bad enough I despised what you did when you hid and did nothing as men died in Benghazi. Bad enough you sent planes full of cash to the terrorist, bad enough OUR men and women women died because of this terrorist, but now this? So who were really getting those guns in your Fast and Furious deal? Cartel or Iran terrorists?
You are truly a traitor of this Great Nation. You are truly disgusting and hope one day you are brought here and made to tell We the People what you actually hid away with your pen and phone. Then you can put on the last thing you will ever wear, an orange suite, and a permanent place in Gitmo. Plus we can seize your property in Washington DC and Martha’s Vineyard and then sell it to bring down the National Debt. And your digital library in Chicago? Nah that will save us money. Why have anything in this Great Nation with the traitorous World President’s name on it.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!

“Later, Booker responded to a question on whether he thinks the strike on Soleimani is part of a larger strategy by re-iterating that Trump has shown “no larger strategy” and stating, “I do not have great confidence [in] this president’s foreign policy. The way he is going about things, his so-called America first policy, seems to be America isolated, America alone, and America less secure.”
Wow, Booker I guess your idol Obama’s idea of sending planes with pallets of money to appease a terrorist was a good idea as a foreign policy. A foreign policy that would have led to a terrorist to have nuclear capability.
President Trump’s America First strategy is showing the World that America will not be messed with. President Trump took off Obama’s handcuffs that were on our Military, who have LOADS of experience to do their job. Regarding America being less secure, it’s amazing you never said anything about all the leaks, especially the Foreign Nationals hacking the House computers, Clinton’s private e-mail server, DNC hacking, and the Democratic caucus hacking that created a HUGE National security.
And regarding America being alone, Israel has already stated they stand with America. I know your idol Obama hated Israel and LOVED Iran.
So I am very confident in President Trump. You on the other hand need to go away. Sorry America, this idiot comes from New Jersey but I NEVER voted for him. The illegal aliens, along with the Foreign Nationals he loves up in North Jersey did.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/01/03/ilhan-omar-pushes-conspiracy-theory-trump-needs-the-distraction-of-war-with-iran/
Push your conspiracy theory all you want Squad member. President Trump doesn’t need a distraction from YOUR impeachment fraud.
BTW, did you watch what happened to our Embassy? Heck your Democratic coup members were saying this was Trump’s Benghazi, which is totally disgusting. Did you read what was spray painted on the side of that Embassy? Well their leader is dead and his reign of future terror he was going to commit against America is gone. Dead as he is. THANK GOD for a Strong President, his Defense and State Department, and ALWAYS OUR MILITARY.
But go ahead, bring Congress in. Love to hear your views on President Obama giving this terrorist plane full of money to be able to continue his terrorist ways. But then again, all you worried about was impeachment. BTW, didn’t you commit campaign fraud? So why are YOU still in Congress? You should be impeached because that’s DEFINITELY illegal.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!
https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2020/01/03/dhs-prepares-push-on-states-which-give-drivers-licenses-to-illegals/
Remember 9/11? I sure the hell do. It was from My State that these terrorist got their driver’s licenses and KILLED innocent people. I watched helplessly while people jumped from buildings to their deaths. I knew when those buildings came down how many Police, Firefighters, and EMT’s were STILL in that building trying to save innocent people. And no matter IF the media and dems who hid that video, I REMEMBER those who CHEERED in North Jersey as those buildings came down.
Now here we are again. Giving ANY illegal alien a driver’s license. And knowing what I know about the Iranian terrorist in Latin America and Obama’s Open invitation at the border, you don’t think this will happen again?
And Ice isn’t allowed to even see NYC’s drivers data base? I know the idiots in New Jersey government will do that too.
Thank you President Trump. This epidemic of catering to those illegals who break our laws by the Democrats needs to be address. Now I know why all the Liberals are worried about Americans being killed by Iranian terrorists, because THEY ARE HERE NOW! Helped by the Obama Administration and his ilk.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/01/03/marianne-williamson-soleimani-strike-ask-how-many-american-deaths-were-responsible/
Gee there Marianne, no Americans were killed just one Bad terrorist that was planning on doing more destruction to Americans. Did you notice what happened to our embassy and what was spray painted on it as well? Or did you just go with the rest of them with this is Trump’s Benghazi?
I have Full confidence that the Commander in Chief and OUR Great Military that are NOW allowed to fight will prevail. Believe me those enemies that Obama bowed to are looking at the USA a LOT differently.
What, want us to meet them on a field of love? lol. You go on that field with that mentality. I’ll put my faith in our Commander in Chief and our Military.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!
