"I've got morons on my team." Mitt Romney Minor Deity ![]() |
Jim Webb's take, which I think is spot on. Soleimani is no saint for Webb, but he highlights the missing logic of our whole approach to state-sponsored terrorism. When did it become OK to kill a leader of a country we aren't even at war with? Definitions matter in determining appropriate conduct. And actions have potentially very unsettling future consequences. | |||

It's pretty clear that Trump has Obama derangement syndrome. His decision to pull out of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action started this whole thing rolling. What's telling to me is not that he wanted to withdraw, take his ball and go home. Instead, he wanted to replace it with his plan (as yet unknown but heck, it wouldn't be Obama's, which is as far as his feeble mind apparently took things). The problem? the Iran deal was largely working. Now we're thrust into chaos by this petulant little brat. | |||

Russia stirring the pot.
https://www.reuters.com/articl...rliner-idUSKBN1ZG1OB Also turns out that Trump's announcement that no Americans were injured in the Iranian missile attacks wasn't quite accurate. Apparently 11 members of the military have been moved to medical facilities in Germany and elsewhere to be treated for concussions/traumatic brain injuries.
