oh so Soleimani was actually going to carry out the attacks himself. got it.
Maybe.

4 embassies..not one that was already attacked..context...use it..
What part of not warning people at the embassies that they're in imminent danger do you not understand?
Someone may have missed the fact that the US embassy in Baghdad had been attacked by protestors who entered and then set fire to the reception annex. 4 days prior to that attack the same group launched a rocket attack against US assets in the region, killing one American. The threat against our embassy was quite real and quite imminent.
Proof?
Prove there was!!!
Post it.
Yeah that is why Iran. Attacked four embassies that they were planning on attacking as retaliation, oh wait...
There was one embassy that we had public knowledge of the threat. That does not mean that other embassies were not being threatened. Kata'ib Hezbollah and the PMF were getting mighty uppity. Soleimani meeting directly with al-Muhandis during such an escalation SHOULD have absolutely been considered an imminent threat of additional hostility.
Wonder no more, who wrote the book of lies?
Baghdad, Iraq (CNN)US President Donald Trump has said that he ordered a precision strike to "terminate" a top Iranian commander who was plotting "imminent and sinister attacks" on Americans, adding that the decision was one of deterrence rather than aggression.
"We took action last night to stop a war. We did not take action to start a war," Trump said in a statement from his Mar-a-Lago resort on Friday, a day after a US drone strike on a Baghdad airport killed Qasem Soleimani.
Later, while at a Miami church for an Evangelicals for Trump event, the President said: "He was planning a very major attack and we got him."
Proof?
From day two, “ This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period," Spicer said.
Proof?
The president doesn't answer to the state department, so what if they weren't notified.
CNN is corporate professional lying for corporate interests - nothing else.
A mob storms our embassy and every Democrat on this forum is A-OK with that, just like they were ok with Benghazi and ok with Iran seizing our embassy when Carter was president. There is NO attack against the USA and Americans the new anti-American fascist Democratic Party doesn't approve of.
Someone is lying...
You are saying that it's perfectly fine by you that the president doesn't notify an embassy that they have information that an attack is imminent?
Do you understand what you're saying here??
Out of curiosity, how many of our embassies should we allow to be attacked before we retaliate? How many Americans should need to die before we take action against the guy that has a decades long track record of killing Americans? He had hundreds of American deaths on his hands before we took him out. Should we have waited until that became thousands or tens of thousands?
Wait....
My bad. Those were all dumb questions. I know that it isn't the American deaths that made a difference here. It was Trump and the fact that he took Soleimani out instead of allowing a Democrat to do it.

The threat has been neutralized, what difference does it make?
There was a threat and Trump reacted to the threat. Better than some folks can say. Ain't that right?

Good question. Also, why didn't we bomb the Soviet Union for giving weapons to the North Vietnamese?
