Trump reportedly told associates he killed Qassem Soleimani because he was under pressure

Trump reportedly told associates he killed Qassem Soleimani because he was under pressure from GOP senators before his impeachment trial (https://news.yahoo.com/trump-reportedly-told-associates-killed-162634145.html?soc_src=hl-viewer&soc_trk=tw)


He did it to gain appease from the republicans. Trump has admitted this to his associates.


President Donald Trump told associates that he assassinated Iran's top military leader last week in part to appease Republican senators who will play a crucial role in his Senate impeachment trial, The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.


One of Trump's most outspoken supporters, GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham, appears to be the only congressional lawmaker Trump briefed about his plan to assassinate Soleimani in the days leading up to the strike.

Graham has criticized the president's foreign-policy choices in the past — most notably Trump's withdrawal of troops from northern Syria and his handling of Saudi Arabia.


So the Truth is out, he was trying to please the republicans who had always being wanting a war or something like this happen and all because of the impeachment trial well at least it sort makes sense.

But in the unlikely case any anti-Iran activist Andrew Adler Mosad scandal type pressure is involved, Congressional leadership should be taken into confidence.

I actually believe Ron Paul. He doesn't by your inbred conspiracy theory. If you don't like his views then why are you here?

And for the record, you are beyond childish. As Ender correctly pointed, you are being hypocritical. You expect people to take outlandish claims seriously and ignore the plausible. This isn't about believing the MSM. The MSM parrots, without evidence, the unproven conspiracy theory that Qassem Soleimani is responsible for the deaths of U.S. troops in Iraq from EFPs. That's unproven as the Iraqi's had the material and know how to make EFPs without Iran's help.

Larry Kudlow: Cyber hacking of the Colonial Pipeline and 'Hamas shooting war on Israel' are linked

'Kudlow' host says President Biden is being tested, and just 'taking the punches'

LARRY KUDLOW: We’ve had a shooting war in the Middle East, we’ve had a breakdown on the Colonial Pipeline from Russia’s cyber hacking, we’ve had more evidence that overly-generous unemployment benefits are keeping people at home rather than work. We’ve got a big stock market sell-off, and another $350 Biden dole to state and local government unions, and you can’t cut taxes. So, let me just step back for one moment, and review the bidding.
I’m going to say this: I believe the cyber hacking in the U.S. Southeast is absolutely linked to the Hamas shooting war on Israel. I see it all of one piece, and President Biden is being tested. And so far, he has not shown any strength.

Look, these ransomware cyber hackers are in fact, Russian cyber hackers. As Gen. Keane said earlier today, they may be moonlighting, but make no mistake, they are Russian cyber hackers, and this is their boldest strike yet. And if we don’t do something about it fast, much more is coming. That’s point number one.

As far as Hamas is concerned, Hamas, of course, a terrorist state of Iran. Iran, itself, is a terrorist country. Now, who’s Iran’s biggest backer? You guessed it – Russia. At every turn, Russia makes mischief on behalf of Iran and against the U.S., and Israel, and the Abraham Accords.

By the way, let’s give China some credit too, because they are a large financier and oil buyer of Iran.

In the 1990s, Rouhani studied for 6 years at the privately owned Caledonian University in Glasgow, Scotland.


Mohammad Zarif is another lawyer, who was the Foreign Affairs Minister in Iran from July 2013 to February 2019. In 1977, when he was a teenager, Zarif left Iran to study in the US. He later studied at San Francisco State University, from which he gained a Master degree in 1982.
In San Francisco, Zarif joined the Islamic Student Association and made friends who later became political figures in Iran, including the brother of Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, Iranian president from 1989 to 1997.

Zarif continued his studies at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies, University of Denver, from which he obtained a Ph.D. in international law and policy in 1988.
In 2016, Zarif with John Kerry shared the Chatham House Prize (awarded by the Royal Institute of International Affairs, a.k.a. Chatham House).

Azarpassillo’s chairman, Keyumars Darvishi, became the head of Raman after he fought in the Iran-Iraq War. Raman is an Iranian construction firm, controlled by the Revolutionary Guard (that was controlled by Soleimani).

An Iranian newspaper affiliated with the country’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei published an editorial Saturday calling on the government to strike Israel’s nuclear facility in Dimona in response to the recent attack on the Islamic Republic’s Natanz nuclear site, which was widely attributed to Israel.

Writing in the ultraconservative Kahyan daily, prominent regional analyst Saadullah Zarai lamented the response seen thus far from the Iranian government following the April 11 sabotage operation at Natanz.

George W. Bush: ‘Iranian influence’ is behind Hamas attacks on Israel

By Steven Nelson
May 19, 2021

Former President George W. Bush said in a new interview that Iran helped spur the Hamas terrorist group to attack Israel.
Bush told Fox News that what “you’re seeing playing out is Iranian influence targeted toward Israel.”
“I think the best approach with regard to Iran is to understand that their influence is dangerous for world peace,” he said.

The Republican former commander in chief said “they are very much involved with extremist movements in Lebanon and Syria and Yemen, and they are aiming to spread their influence.”

Gen. Mark Milley reportedly warned Trump not to strike Iran: 'You're gonna have a f---ing war'

Gen. Mark Milley reportedly warned Trump not to take military action against Iran after the election.
Milley told Trump he would "have a f---ing war" with Iran if the US struck, a book excerpt says.
The book, by The New Yorker's Susan Glasser and The Times' Peter Baker, comes out next year.


Top US Gen. Mark Milley feared that Donald Trump would take military action against Iran at the end of his presidency and repeatedly warned him not to, according to reporting, published in The New Yorker on Friday, from an upcoming book about Trump's presidency.

"If you do this, you're gonna have a f---ing war," Milley would reportedly tell the president and his foreign-policy advisors who had pushed for a missile strike on the Middle Eastern country after Trump lost the 2020 election.

Iran was frequently brought up in White House meetings after the election, with Trump "seemingly willing to do anything to stay in power," The New Yorker's Susan Glasser, an author of the book, reported on Friday. The New York Times in late November reported that Trump had consulted top advisors — including Milley — about options for striking Iran's primary nuclear site and was ultimately talked out of it.

At one meeting without Trump, his advisors again brought up action against Iran, and Milley questioned why they were so intent on attacking the country, Glasser reported.
"Because they are evil," Vice President Mike Pence reportedly answered.

Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, eventually helped end the prospect of a conflict with Iran, the report said.
On January 3, Trump held an Oval Office meeting to receive an update on Iran's latest nuclear activities. Milley, along with Robert O'Brien, the national security advisor, and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, informed Trump that any military action against Iran would be impossible at that point, Glasser reported.
Trump appeared to heed the warnings, and the focus on Iran faded, the report said.
