Can you clarify why? I just finished reading his wikipedia page and it wasn’t clear. Some sectarian violence that ended up with rioting at a US embassy in Iraq with no one hurt and it’s not clear that soleimani was even involved?
What are they going to do? Shoot down another civilian airliner? >

I think they're 1-1 on that count tbh. >

Sounds like someone's looking for a scapegoat to distract from their falling government to me >

Yup.  Looking for a cause to rally the masses behind. >

And I'm sorry, but... Just to be clear: who do you mean here, again? >

The Ayatollah and regime would like to distract the unhappy masses protesting about the innocent killings of citizens by reminding them how much they hate America. >

Okay just verifying that we have the cards right in the right stacks for this topic. Continue. Yes? >

There's nothing to continue. >

US response: "K." >

USA: "New President, who dis?" >

I want the next us president to be a 25 year old black guy >

Well, 35 because the Constitution, but that'd be neat. >

Hear me out:
9 year old president >

6 year old dog. So 42 in human years. >

Still not worse than the 45th one >

Or the 46th >

Its also 3 years since the Iranians blew up Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752, no apologies and no compensation has been given from the Iranian government  to the victims and because the Iranians are such a peace loving people, they decided sell drones to make the Ukrainians lives even more miserable. >

Iranian government, the people are clearly in opposition of their government /r/NewIran >

The slice of Iranians that use western internet if they even have access to it, is so small. The fact is, the majority of Iranians do support the Islamic regime of the Ayatollah >

I am not so sure.
An authoritarian regime will not give you accurate numbers. >

It’s pretty insane how often you’ll find this sentiment on Reddit about people living under dictatorships actually supporting them with a majority. It’s a “fact” a majority support the despotic regime that violently suppresses vocal opposition? What’s that based on? Polling? Of course not. It’s an assumption founded on nothing but speculation. >

Right, and they don't even have the tiny bit of introspection needed to look at the country they live in and what percentage they'd consider as supporting their government, most democracies are not even close to 100% supporting their government. >

I’d be surprised if most democracies even had >50% support for their governments in general. Maybe for a certain party or personality, but the entire government? Doubtful. So why do these dipshits think the people living under a despotic regime that censors dissenters with beatings and death come even close to 50% in support? Do they think people living in dictatorships are morons or cognitively lesser? >

Exactly. >

Didn’t they have trouble sinking a 1:20 scale wooden air craft carrier with their “navy” of pontoon boats and jet skis? >

People actually try to argue the US would lose aircraft carriers to Irans navy if fighting broke out. >

Pretty sure our port authorities could beat the Iran navy >

Our coast guard could probably beat them >

Our coast guard is fucking badass. Those guys don't get nearly the credit they deserve. >

Space Force was just created and CG still at the back of the line >

They are too busy murdering girls for how they wore their hair. >

Uh oh, Iran’s theocracy is schizoposting again. It’s against Reddit’s rules for me to describe what I hope the Iranian people do to the leaders of that regime, so I’ll just let the reader come up with their own version. >

Dante's Inferno may help >

His job was to literally train guerillas and terrorists to attack US troops/Western in active, and non-active war zones/neighboring countries. Fuck around, and he found out. >

He also killed Syrians, iraqis and iranians. >

Let’s be real. Who didn’t? >

South Koreans. >

I will dance in joy along the Iranian people (but alone) when I’ll hear the news that the people of Iran has overthrown the ruthless government, that would be awesome 🤘✊👤❤️‍🩹🌠 >

Yep :) an eye for an eye pretty much :) >

Please don’t kill our beloved General Michael Flynn whatever you do >

I’m definitely NOT available to volunteer on weekends in this scheme ;) >

Soleimani deserved to die.  It’s one of the things Trump did that I agreed with.
