Show us the proof of an "Imminent and sinister attacks"

[42bambi]

on Americans. This from a known liar! Mr. Trump, we demand proof.

Think for a minute - or two, and let's remember Afghanistan and Iraq - did the killings of americans and others come to an end because we killed one of their worst leaders? No. Now Iran - do we honestly think this will end well. This is a circular nonsensical way to keep us safe. We don't trust "them" they don't trust "us"... back and forth. They don't care how many leaders we kill, they will just assign a new and possibly even more vicious leader. What they won't tolerate is the messing with their economy such as using sanctions...they are in it for long haul. They will wait - they are very hardened and patient. This could continue into 2100 for God's sake. I fear that my great grandchildren will facing this ongoing dilemma. We need to accept that they will continue to kill...and even more so if we continue to attack them. We can hope all we want but it won't solve this Hell from happening. They will retaliate. We don't know when, we don't know how...or where. Many wars have been justified, but this should not be one.

I don't want to argue with anyone about my view on this...it's just an honest heartfelt opinion.

1. I'm with you. I don't believe a thing coming out of this administration.

[Kurt V.]

2. the guy drew on a weather map with a sharpie and made officials say it was right.

i'll wait for pelosi to say whats what.

[MoonRiver]

3. I am so depressed.

My 17 year old grandson is talking about enlisting in the military.

[maxsolomon]

7. He should watch Starship Troopers first. The original.

If he still wants to join, join the Coast Guard.

[MoonRiver]

8. I'll pass that on. He hasn't joined yet, and this latest horror may have him thinking twice.

[OMGWTF]

10. My 29-yr-old only child is career USCG and I literally puked when Traitor Tot "won."

[MoonRiver]

21. Desperately hoping Congress will put a check on this maniac!

[duforsure]

4. Its trump spinning this now

As us as the victims with claims from a professional liar as evidence.

[gratuitous]

5. Oh! Uh . . . "national security"

Yeah, we can't compromise intelligence assets by revealing what we knew about Soleimani's actions and movements. I know we haven't appeared to care about that in the past, like when Trump divulged code word intelligence to Ambassador Lavrov in the Oval Office, but we really, really care about it now.

So, just take the administration's word for it. Has Trump ever lied to you?

[42bambi]

6. I know, right?

[UTUSN]

9. Uh, it's still being written up by KILMEADE, not ready yet.

[Lonestarblue]

11. Why should anyone believe anything Trump or his sycophants say?

Liars just gotta lie. I do not believe Pompeo’s story. As usual, all we can expect are lies.

[Karadeniz]

12. Can the generals be hauled into congress to say what they told Trump, his reactions?

[Totally Tunsie]

13. Skeptical here, also.

I don't believe anything coming from Chump's nasty mouth, and I don't plan on starting soon. We've seen too many times already where an action takes place and then Chump and partners make up the backstory afterwards to justify themselves. This is just more of the same.

[Ferrets are Cool]

14. Jr lied, cheney lied, Powell lied and the orange baboon lies daily....all we get is SHIT

from repugs

[42bambi]

15. I'm so very tired of all of Trump's antics that

I actually become sick and feel as if I'm going to vomit. I try not to watch, listen, or even think about what he doing to our country but he's in our faces every GD day...day after day - it never ends! Something or someone has to stop this Trumpian maniac!

[Ferrets are Cool]

16. I feel the same way nt

[eShirl]

17. he got the info straight from putin himself

[angrychair]

18. There wasnt one

The second attack, on a completely different organization's leadership, proves this was a policy decision, not a reaction to an emerging and imminent threat as they contend.

They have lied to Congress and to the American people.

The question is how will congress react? Will they fall in line with military industrial complex or actually stand up for the American people?

[Wounded Bear]

19. Trump never proves anything...

that's why he needs the Evangelical vote. They'll believe any old crap you throw at them if you're a "trusted source."

Religion requires people to accept unbelievable shit on faith. So does Trump. See the connection?

[42bambi]

20. Yes, symbiotic, a mutually beneficial relationship
