US kills top Iranian general in Baghdad

That is the concern.

It's Iran's assets and money. Stopping them selling THEIR oil. All on the horse manure lies from Israel that Netanyahu famously tried to sell at the UN with a CARTOON drawing. They aren't building a bomb. It takes a few words to explain that they need to be around 95% uranium enrichment to build a bomb and they are around 5%! !! ! They have the right to enrich it for energy, especially since they aren't allowed to sell THEIR oil.

Awwww diddums. Poor Israel with their hundreds of nukes they helped get from stealing secrets from the U.S. Get a little violin out so we can cry together as Israel shoots kids in the face and plays the victims. If Iran even came close to getting a nuke they would be done and know it.

Iran has signed the non proliferation treaty, Israel hasn't. They have no leg to stand on. Yes I hate Israel. Anyone who loves child murdering state sponsoring terrorists is the one with the problem.

Only if you are blinded by propaganda.

Before 9/11, I do not believe the U.S. really had an understanding of how dangerous Al Qaeda was.

In December 1998, the Director of the CIA Counterterrorism Center reported to President Bill Clinton that al-Qaeda was preparing to launch attacks in the United States, and that the group was training personnel to hijack aircraft. On September 11, 2001, al-Qaeda attacked the United States, hijacking four airliners within the country and deliberately crashing two into the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York City. The third plane crashed into the western side of the Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia. The fourth plane was crashed into a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania.[196] In total, the attackers killed 2,977 victims and injured more than 6,000 others.

On February 2, 2014, al-Qaeda distanced itself from ISIS and its actions in Syria, however during 2014–15, ISIS and the al-Qaeda-linked al-Nusra Front were still able to occasionally cooperate in their fight against the Syrian government. Al-Nusra (backed by Saudi Arabia and Turkey as part of the Army of Conquest during 2015–2017) launched many attacks and bombings, mostly against targets affiliated with or supportive of the Syrian government. From October 2015, Russian air strikes targeted positions held by al-Nusra Front, as well as other Islamist and non-Islamist rebels, while the US also targeted al-Nusra with airstrikes.] In early 2016, a leading ISIL ideologue described al-Qaeda as the "Jews of jihad".

So since this thread was focused on the killing of Qassim Soleimani, who some describe as an Iranian General. My initial question is why is an Iranian General in Bagdad in the first place. He was the mastermind of terror throughout the Middle East setting the entire region on fire. Was his next target the takeover of Iraq by the Iranians?

According to Wikipedia:

In March 2007, Soleimani was included on a list of Iranian individuals targeted with sanctions in United Nations Security Council Resolution 1747. On 18 May 2011, he was sanctioned again by the United States along with Syrian president Bashar al-Assad and other senior Syrian officials due to his alleged involvement in providing material support to the Syrian government.

On 24 June 2011, the Official Journal of the European Union said the three Iranian Revolutionary Guard members now subject to sanctions had been "providing equipment and support to help the Syrian government suppress protests in Syria". The Iranians added to the EU sanctions list were two Revolutionary Guard commanders, Soleimani, Mohammad Ali Jafari, and the Guard's deputy commander for intelligence, Hossein Taeb. Soleimani was also sanctioned by the Swiss government in September 2011 due to the same grounds cited by the European Union.

He was listed by the United States as a known terrorist, which forbade U.S. citizens from doing business with him. The list, published in the EU's Official Journal on 24 June 2011, also included a Syrian property firm, an investment fund and two other enterprises accused of funding the Syrian government. The list also included Mohammad Ali Jafari and Hossein Taeb.

On 13 November 2018, the United States sanctioned an Iraqi military leader named Shibl Muhsin ‘Ubayd Al-Zaydi and others who allegedly were acting on Qasem Soleimani's behalf in financing military actions in Syria or otherwise providing support for terrorism in the region.

John, the Palestinians have been free to relocate since their land was reclaimed by the Jews. Not only do they choose not to leave, but are not above using their children as human shields. So, I would argue that the Palestinians hate their own children, or love the land more. I'm not sure which.

When you go about screaming, you appear unhinged.

Hasn't Iran vowed to eliminate Israel?

At Canada being anti-Israel. Based on what? According to who?

Canada is simply anti-senseless conflict - but we do have a very well trained and respected special forces team & other military members known for punching above their weight class in combat. We just, in general, have no use for going around the world murdering people for the sake of generating bullet sales for arms makers.

reclaimed?

okay, where do you suppose all those palestinians are supposed to
go? how is their claim to the land any weaker?

You have yet to respond to the last human rights question I asked you. What about your own first nations people that you are still mistreating?

Canada detests Jews, they love Muslims. Canada has no problem extending kindness to people who show up begging, but if someone feels they are entitled to their portion anywhere, Canada hates them.

Because they got their asses handed to them. Please tell me that in all your studies (you seem to be an educated individual) you haven't lost the concept of Victory.

LMFAO. Your intelligence agencies knew all about these Al Qaeda terrorists and were giving them support. Check your inbox as mods won't let me post truth here.

Yeah he supported Syria's fight against Al Qaeda and ISIS. That's why we killed him. And for Israel as it is their war in Syria.

Wow you've exposed yourself as a fascist. It was not 'reclaimed' it was stolen by force and continues to be stolen. Any evidence for any of your bulls**t?

Israel is eliminating Palestine and attacks all their neighbours. Iran resists them.

Stealing land via war is what the Nazis did in WWII hence it became illegal under international law afterwards.

Give it up, Powell. We all know you’re just blowing smoke.
