I was thinking about this and my guess is Iranian assassins will plan for years to avenge. Iranians will never forgive and forget this.

(26,045 posts)...the same is true for his entire family. Junior, Eric, Javanka, even Tiffany and Barron are potentially at risk, and likely will be all their lives, or at least until 45 himself has passed on.
Remember, when the USS Vincennes mistakenly shot down the Iranian passenger plane back in 1987, the captains wife and children were targeted in a car bombing that, fortunately, failed.

(14,961 posts)This morning, I saw a couple blips of Vladamir Putin saying, Trump was mislead by our intelligence agencies. I know there is no way in hell he would have made a move like that, without being advised by Putin first. I imagine Putin himself directed this, but why? Just a distraction, doubtful. Also Bolton's hard on for Iran, lines up quite nicely with all of this as well.

(7,398 posts)He was impeached and may be impeached again. He is not happy and felt like doing something. It could be this shallow a decision.
dewsgirl
(14,961 posts)He likely egged him on telling him, he'll be a hero for taking Qasom out. I'm sure Trump thinks it will help his re election, it won't. Especially if Americans lose their lives. It's terrifying, my son leaves in two weeks for Qatar, his best friend is being sent to Kuwait. As I watch these guys playing their video games, I am beyond terrified for the futures.

(386 posts)sometimes,.too. We killed 200 to 300 Russian mercenaries in Syria, within minutes. It's one of the reasons Putin ordered Trump to order our troops out of Syria, but the initial killing of hundreds of Russians Putin did not order or approve.
Suliemani convinced Putin to use the Russian military in Syria to save Assad. I don't think this killing was on Putin's directions.
It's a good general rule to follow, though. The Pelosi rule. [Nearly] every road with Trump leads to Putin.
put him up to this, could be linked to oil too. Putin is orchestrating this whole thing, he's got the US on the edge.

After that, I will go out into my garage, open the garage door, open my car doors and trunk, put Van Halen - Diver Down in the CD player, crank the volume as loud as it goes, cue up 'Dancing In The Streets' ... and then I will go out into my Street, and proceed to do exactly as the song exhorts me to do for it's entire running time.
Then I will repeatedly scream 'WOOOO HOOOOO' at the top of my freaking lungs for a couple more minutes.
I'm sure my largely Mormon neighborhood will be wildly entertained.

(63,221 posts)And that goes for his grifting family as well. I always wondered why terrorists didn't go after the people who were directly responsible for assassinations and dropping bombs on their people. I think it would change things if they did. If politicians paid with their lives for their aggressive actions in other nations, I imagine things might be a bit different.
They should know that our government doesn't give a damn if we have civilian casualties. It only gives them more reason to beat the war drum and keep the carnage going. Only when they are personally at risk will they take these decisions more seriously.

(11,885 posts)Anyone at his properties are at a greater risk from attacks now , which Iran is smart enough to understand that'll hurt him badly, and also digging up and exposing him in many ways by leaking damming information against him and others will also hurt him , and what he fears the most. He just made his properties very dangerous places to be at. He also put his family at much greater risk, and made them a target for the rest of their lives. I think putin is behind this now , and using trump to increase his profits from oil prices skyrocketing, and for a distraction. People will be really pissed as gasoline prices jump up now from this. trump will be running from many really really bad guys he's screwed over forever.
