"The president didn't cite a specific piece of evidence, what he said was he believed," Esper said. "I didn't see one, with regard to four embassies. What I'm saying is that I shared the president's view that my expectation was they were going to go after our embassies."


Along with the 3 other links I posted .... Basically there are contradictions everywhere from Trump and the administration. Now you have Esper saying he supports Trump while never having seen any evidence to sy what Trump claimed. . . . Do you know who Esper is???? Know what position he holds ???? LMAO.

Yep. I'll call out 40 and his mindless spew all day. He never says anything but parrots Trump lies and propaganda. Ever.

Do you want to suggest there is evidence that there was an imminent attack planned by Iran ??? Want to go against the Dems AND Republicans who said there was Nada?

No one said Solemimoni wasn't a piece of S. That deserved to die. The issue is how Trump lies, abuses authority ... And the chumps who support him just make excuse after excuse for him.

Did you see the other article I posted where the Press Secretary made FALSE CLAIMS (lies) about Obama and his authorization to kill Bin Laden and others ??? Probably not huh ?

Tell her about your "Truth"...

Muslim scholar on Iranians protesting shot down plane: 'This regime, for the first time ever, is seriously threatened'

Council on Foreign Relations member Qanta Ahmed weighed in on Sunday on the anti-government protests that had erupted at Iranian universities across the country on Saturday in response to Iran’s admission that it unintentionally shot down a Ukrainian passenger plane killing all 176 people on board, saying that she thinks “this regime, for the first time ever, is seriously threatened.”

Ahmed, a Muslin scholar, made the comment, adding that the regime “is in its most fragile and precarious time probably since 1979.”

“They’ve had a disastrous outcome to their attempt of intimidating the United States, their attempts on the embassy in Baghdad failed, they’ve had Qassem Soleimani [figuratively] decapitated, they had to admit that they shot down their own commercial airliner, killing hundreds of people, 83 Iranians, many Iranians have lost multiple family members,” she explained.

Crowds of students chanted for the Revolutionary Guards to “let go of the country!” and also mentioned Soleimani, saying that he “was a murderer" and "his leader is too!” President Trump had ordered the drone strike on Solemani and declared the world a safer place following his death.

“I think the Iranians have to ask themselves what else have they [the regime] concealed,” Ahmed said Sunday responding to the Ukrainian passenger plane being shot down.

“It wasn't just the error. They denied it at first, then finally they're admitting it, now they want to know what other falsehoods have been fed.”

She added, “1500 people were killed in recent protests in Iran before the Qassem Soleimani execution, so they are finally able to voice what they’ve suspected all along and we must not ignore those voices.”

Odd you’ll listen to a foreign scholar, but trash you fellow American scholars by calling them libtards and snowflakes.

You can never be taken seriously.

A wise man and Trump supporter will always listen to a Muslim Scholar over some grease monkey or slum lord.

Y’all listen to The russians as well, so never put ‘trump supporter’ and ‘wise’ in the same sentence.

You mean like "Libtard" and "Work"?

Like ‘Christian’ and ‘wedding vows’

Sen. Tom Cotton says threat of future Soleimani attacks looks different to soldiers than politicians

Senate Armed Services Committee member Tom Cotton, R-Ark., praised President Trump's swift action that killed Iran Gen. Qassem Soleimani, telling Mark Levin that the viewpoint of a soldier in the Middle East is different than that of a lawmaker working stateside.

Cotton, a veteran of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, said in an interview airing Sunday that he has seen intelligence that showed Soleimani, 62, was plotting "something large [and] something very dangerous" in the near future.

"There is no doubt," he said, suggesting that the severity of the situation trumped whether the predicted attack or attacks happened in a matter of days as opposed to weeks or months.

"The question of whether the attack is imminent or not ... looks very different if you're a soldier sitting in Iraq than if you're some comfortable senator sitting behind armed guards in Washington D.C.," Cotton said.

I’m also a veteran of both wars, and I disagree with him and his Warhawk takes.

So now what? What is cottons words suppose to mean to me?

Nothing I guess.

Exactly.

So 40, ambassador of team trump to DT, what should we think of this guys comments?

Pentagon chief says no specific evidence Iran was plotting to attack four U.S. embassies

https://news.yahoo.com/pentagon-chief-says-no-specific-172910435.html

You and others are gonna have to explain to me why officials have different takes despite coming out of the same administration. Because it’s a different version every time they open their mouths.

Intelligence is not an exact science. It is done according to interpretation of the facts at hand.

Experts can disagree.

In this case, if we erred, we erred to the side of safety for our people.

This terrorist general had a reputation for large scale slaughter. Do you think he mended his ways?

Or perhaps enough evidence existed to not take the risk but to take him out.

And perhaps Trump felt like his best chance of re-election was to try something like this and take someone out regardless.
