Iran is not a concern for US

Its all about China. In real terms china is already 25% richer than US and that disparity will grow in coming decades. So US knows its time is running out. How do they remain Numero uno.

The answer brzezinski came up with was to control the worlds oil. US would spoon feed China oil thus maintaing their Numero uno status in world affairs. The war against terrorism was all strategic, funny enough, to control the worlds oil.

Th current sanctions on Irans oil has had limited affect. They can see China's empty oil tankers go dark in the ocean's. Then week latter suddenly reappear full of Iranian oil.

So what does the US do, Time is running out before China become's just too big to tackle.

US want's a base in Iran. But how will China/Russia respond if US invade's Iran (its so fat been the line in the sand).

Perhaps we will see a false flag in US soon. Blamed on Iran, Resulting in invaision. Running the gambit that China won't respond,

But Russia is building China's Ballistic Missile Defence System. China is preparing for war.

I think the Jonestown Kool-Aid scenario is more of a charismatic Christian tradition if we are honest, i really don't see that working on 10% of 1.8 billion people in this, or any other, day of age, life is precious after all, and part of the human condition.

And as far as i understand a person who commits suicide under Islamic law commits a major sin, though this does not take him outside of Islam.

So computer says "No" methinks.

So is the officially sanctioned murder of a foreign government’s military official.

Under international law it does not matter why a government official is in another country, what matters, Under the Law, is that the person Is an official government representative.

Either we live by the laws we establish, or we do not.

If we are to live by the law, then we are beholden to live by them all, all the time; whether we agree with them or not, whether they are convenient or not, regardless of circumstance.

If we choose to not live by the law, then cry havoc, let loose the dogs of war and expect no mercy.

Last one to die turn out the lights!

So, you dont care if Soleimani was in Iraq on secret killing missions and committing terrorism and general unrest in Iraq and has the blood of 600+ Americans on his hands?

Cite the laws broken and also prove that the general was an official representative of the Iranian State. Then also prove that there is no circumstance where Soleimani could have been legally killed.

Lastly, please do tell me why if killing Soleimani was such a crime, why does Iran not take their case to international court? Where are the charges against President Trump for war crimes?

Qasem Soleimani, was an Iranian major general in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and of an official representative of the Iranian regime, commander of its Quds Force, a division primarily responsible for extraterritorial military and clandestine operations.

There is no question as to the veracity there.

The guy probably deserved to die, from our perspective, thats a given.

But generally one of the rules of conflict is that you don't take out other nation's leaders near the top of the tree, even in times of war.

Think how the American people would feel if Iran had taken out Trump or the Director of the CIA?

It's the manner and way in which this was done that's in question.

There is talk of Nancy Pelosi adding war crimes to Trump's impeachment charges nevermind the International Court of Justice.

I didnt see anything about accusations of war crimes. So looks like Trump killing Soleimani wasn't a crime.

Well, there is a whole thread regarding the matter here on ATS, but you are probably aware of that fact.

Given the manner in which the operation was carried out, i don't imagine its beyond the realms of possibility.

In a time when war is always the headline. Fear mongering is the norm from a corrupt media. The cries of wolf become normalized. That is where the danger is!! Once the wolf actually comes to call, the warning signs will be dismissed until it’s to late. Reality is the dominoes WILL eventually fall! 😐

when the dominoes eventfully fall
my only survival advise considering it will be dog eat dog on the street.
when all your neighbors migrate out looking for water, because the faucet wont produce water like magic for them.
they left behind a hot water tank full of water.
