Rising oil prices serve to benefit Russia's economy. Trump couldn't use Ukraine to get reelected so he is bowing to Putin to assist him win election and grab money. All roads....
Educate yourself.
The US is the worlds largest Exporter in Oil now and it will benefit Texas more than it will ever benefit Russia.
Besides, Iran is now a ZERO in the oil market. Their supply has almost been cut off due to embargoes (Thanks Trump).
This will not even be a factor in the Oil Market more than a few days. There is currently a oversupply in the oil markets.
You are showing your lack of smarts on the subject. Just Trump hysteria.
These pro-Iran people have zero clue about Iran... It is a fragile government and wouldn't be hard to topple... Nobody cares about generals... Nobody...
Cowardice, weakness, and sympathy if not outright support for the enemies of the US is to be expected from your average Democratic party candidate for president. It would only be news if that weren't the case.
Suleiman may be a terrorist to us, but he is a hero to Iranians and millions of others in the middle east for, among other things, defeating ISIS (which HE not Trump did). To call him a terrorist is on the same plane as calling Patreus a terrorist. Both men kill in the name of their patriotic goals. The distinction is which side you are on.
Yeah, i know. I suspect there are as many terrorists among our own ranks as there are among theirs. Taliban, isis, iranian national guard- today’s freedome fighters are tomorrows dictators.
My son is in the military. If he gets deployed he is fully ready and willing to fight for our country. I support Trump. This general was a horrible person who is directly responsible for the deaths of 100's of American soldiers.
Indirectly. Those Americans were killed by Iraqi Shiite insurgents aka The Mahdi Army. They were backed by Iran, much like North Vietnam was backed by the Soviets.
Whats weird for me - i dislike Trump but i much prefer his PR approach when handling an assassination. Don’t try to act like the US is all innocent and bound by the Geneva convention. Trump wanted a high level terrorist killed, so he did it and he owned it. Its actually kind of refreshing. The results may not be so refreshing, but at least the idea that government should operate its killing machine with some transparency is less insulting than doing everything covertly then acting like we had nothing to do with it.
He came, we saw, and he died !!! Shouldn't we all be cackling like Hillary ?
This was imprudent, actions have consequences and Trump can't see beyond the next corner. He did this probably in response to polling numbers that are disturbing the wealthy donor base, they are calling for some bold action to gin up support. Wars can do that.
In where? Iran?
I never heard Obama called a warmonger. Wimp. Weakling. Coward. But never a warmonger.
Obama sent money. That didn't work. Signed an agreement merely so he could claim he signed an agreement. Didn't work, obviously.
Nah. I prefer Trump. A high level terrorist has been killed. Iran really didn't think we would do that.
Will Iran attack US military assets? I dunno. But in the event they do, several responses have already been laid out for us to chose from. We can hit Iran in their country. They cannot hit the US.
You must not have been here very long.
Search for warmongering liberals and Obama.
Nope we need to leave- 20 years is enough -stop importing millions of them -they hate us -wake up
I know how to stop the 20 year war -
