80 Million? I say, go for it!

Journal by aristarchus

Maybe we think a president is worth something. But anything is only worth what you can get for it on the market. I remember watching some "Olympus has Fallen" or other really bad movie, where the North Koreans held the POTUS hostage, and through out the movie I kept shouting, "Kill the bastard! We have 300 Million more of them!" If I was an American. But now there is a rather unique situation, where Americans could impeach, remove, and turn over the Donald, and recover some of the taxes he owes. Yes, the Iranians would probably kill him, but given his mental, and moral, state, that is no great injustice.

On the side, how much could we get for John Bolton, on the open market? Rumsfeld? Ouww, I bet Kissinger would go for a pretty penny! And Wolfowitz and his traitor wife. Oh, you didn't know about that one? Khallow, unfortunately, would sell for very little. Poor khallow.

    Then I have to assume you believe it's ok for people over there to protect themselves against trespassers also, no matter who they are or where they are from. So, why was ok to kill this guy again?

    One does not negate the other.

      No, I'm asking what he did to justify the assassination.

        Apparently he was over there organizing what we'd call "militia groups" over here to preform attacks on American interests, with a hand in the embassy attack as well.

          American "interests", in the Middle East. I guess they must prevail over all else, huh? The rights of they and theirs be damned. Not such a two way street after all.

            Such is arguing with fascists who don't have the guts to admit what they are. Carrion eater just wants the grubs from all the dead corpses of WW3.

        You already said trespassing was good enough reason. He was killed in Baghdad after all.

          What, he didn't have papers? Couldn't they just make him wait in Mexico?

            Apparently, he was told [reuters.com] to never come back and he came back. Classic trespassing scenario right there.

            United Nations sanctions monitors have said photographs taken inside Iraq appear to confirm that the head of Iran’s elite military Quds Force, one of Iran’s most powerful people, has been in the country in violation of a U.N. travel ban.

            Qassem Soleimani, chief of the force which is an overseas arm of the Revolutionary Guards, has been subject to an international travel ban and asset freeze by the U.N. Security Council since 2007.
