Why won't the Trump administration identify the "imminent threat" that supposedly justified this action? Could it be because there was no "imminent threat" for them to identify?
Could we ask the same of Bill Clinton or was it Bush 1? One of them was briefed that the brave and well loved freedom fighter Osama Bin Laden was up to no good but nothing was imminent and then looked what happened.
Imagine if they had acted and when he poked his head out they took their shot.
What I don't understand is that when Bin Laden was murdered was their any imminent threat? but Obama was held up like some type of hero?
Wag the Dog: "By 47%-39%, those surveyed said Trump ordered the killing of Soleimani in an attempt to divert the focus from his impeachment."
What "impeachment"? Your woman is stalling the process.
More like, Trump ordered the killing of Soleimani to continue the US on the safe course, all while dealing with the silly charade the Democrats are choosing to engage in.
"Americans by more than 2-1 say the killing of Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani has made the United States less safe, a nationwide USA TODAY/Ipsos Poll finds, amid broad concerns about the potential consequences ahead. A majority of those surveyed, by 52%-34%, called Trump's behavior with Iran "reckless.""
If a 52-34 majority think Trump is reckless, then they also think he's not fit for office. Bad news for Trump's reelection chances.
Wag the Dog: "By 47%-39%, those surveyed said Trump ordered the killing of Soleimani in an attempt to divert the focus from his impeachment." Given the poor reception by senators at the Iran briefing -- where evidence that Soleimani was an immenent threat was lacking -- the "wag the dog" theory moves from silly conspiracy theory to a plausible explanation.
A better poll would be directed to the terrorists.
Question:
As a terrorist that targets Americans and American interests, does the recent action taken by President Trump make you feel more or less inclined to continue your terrorist activities?
Of course this poll turned out the way it did. I'm surprised it's not more lopsided given the brainwashing of the American people by the MSM/DNC (one and the same entity).

World is better off without that dude but problem is this action opened the door to new problems that might cost even more lives than if the general was still alive.
The old unprovable statement = Crystal ball gazing !!!
