The embassy attack, undoubtedly orchestrated by Iran which means by Suleimani, was a result of US airstrikes on terrorist compounds. Those strikes were in retaliation for those terrorists killing an American.
Further there was intelligence that Suleimani was stepping up his game and traveling around the Middle East, including to Iraq, to plot more attacks on America.
So Trump did the obvious; he had Suleimani killed. The British tried to kill Rommel during WWII; killing people who are killing your friends is always fair game.
Clearly Trump is enforcing his red line, something that Obama refused to do. Apparently Trump's red line is that if you kill Americans you will pay a price. That's the sort of thing you'd expect from a patriot and precisely what we never heard from Obama in the wake of Benghazi or the many other terror attacks that occurred on his watch.
While the left is trying to have their cake and eat it too by saying that yes Suleimani has killed hundreds of Americans but it was wrong of Trump to do anything about it the reality is that what Democrats are really saying is that the war on terror has to be suspended until after the 2020 election.
Think about it. Democrats are saying that Trump acted to distract from impeachment. But what impeachment? Pelosi refuses to even formally impeach Trump--to do so she has to send the articles to the Senate--and is acting like impeachment will go on until the Democrats lose the House in 2020.
Other Democrats are saying Trump had no idea of what he was doing when in fact it's clear he knew precisely what he was doing; sending a clear and unambiguous message to Iran that attacks on Americas aren't allowed.
Essentially what the Democrats are showing us is that anything Trump does to fight terrorism will be questioned and condemned.
Hence the only way for Trump to not be accused of doing evil when he's really fighting to protect we the people, is for Trump to put the war on terror on hold until after the 2020 elections.
Given that Democrats have historically, with the exception of a short time around 9/11, clearly felt uncomfortable fighting radical Islam they won't be bothered if we let Iranian terrorist imperialism go untouched.
That every Democrat is willing to defend a terrorist leader in order to use the killing of that terrorist leader as a club to bash Trump tells us once again that the only thing Democrats care about is power over we the people.
That's why so many of them want the economy to crash; they don't care if we suffer so long as they get elected as a result.
