So what False Flag Attack to be blamed on Iran in order to escalate this thing will happen soon?
A bombing?
A mass killing spree?
A gassing?
Maybe shooting down a passenger plane?
An attack on a military base?
Perhaps something more creative like a new Pearl Harbor type event?
I guess we'll find out soon, I mean the headlines are telling us something will happen.
I'll tell though, its a funny funny thing. How a country who goes around blowing people up can call other countries terrorists.
He was acompanied by Abou Mehdi al-Mouhandis, the 2nd-in-command of Hachd al-Chaabi, a coalition of mainly pro-Iran paramilitaries now integrated into the Iraqi state (who was killed as well). So I guess the reason he was in Iraq is because of that.zeeblofowl_1969 said:Why was a General of elite military units from Iran in Iraq anyway???
How was this even allowed??
All I can say is bullseye!!!
Let's not forgte that the Iranians have backed up radical islamic terrorist groups
My guess is a missile into an American warship or a major strike on the saudis or Israelis.
But I’m thinking the first is the most obvious..
Ok.
Lets say for example the planet Romulus and its good friend Israelus wanted to start a war with the planet Vulcan but they needed an excuse to do so.
They would need to do it in a way in which they would be considered by most to be the victims who are only defending themselves from those terrible Vulcans, otherwise the Romulan people would not support such a war.
A great way to do this would be for the Romulan government to openly kill a top Vulcan leader and claim self defense for an action not yet taken ( aka.The Baby Hitler Theory)
Then have the entire Romulan mainstream media post headlines claiming and warning of nothing but Vulcan retaliation.
Such as Vulcan Vows ‘Forceful Revenge’ After Romulus Kills General and
Israelus Military on Heightened Alert After Romulan Killing of Vulcan Commander
Then a few days later Romulus goes and bombs a building or drops a gas bomb or shoots up a Romulan gay bar or something in one of their own cities and blames the Vulcans'
Now they have an excuse to bomb the shit out of the Vulcan people.
How easy would that be?
Easy as can be when the people of Romulus have no clue as to how to think for themselves anymore thanks to decades of Romulan government lies and propaganda.
Well, it's election year, and Trump needs to get voters behind him.
Easiest fix:
Start a war. Always works, if against a vile enemy.
He does everything by the book right now, regarding the attack to get the enemy rolling.
Really doesn't matter if there was danger at hand or not, Saddam didn't have WOMDs, too
I don't expect world peace this year then
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/jan/03/mike-pence-iran-911-suleimaniMike Pence pushes 9/11 conspiracy theories to justify Suleimani killing
In a series of tweets, US vice-president falsely claims Iran general assisted in travel of terrorists behind September 11 attacks
In defense of his administration’s decision to assassinate Qassem Suleimani, Mike Pence has been promoting conspiracy theories that link September 11 terrorists to Iran.
In a series of tweets, the US vice-president called Suleimani “an evil man who was responsible for killing thousands of Americans”. Among other things, Pence insisted that the general “assisted in the clandestine travel to Afghanistan of 10 of the 12 terrorists who carried out the September 11 terrorist attacks in the United States”, misstating the number of 9/11 hijackers – there were 19 – and insinuating Suleimani’s involvement despite a lack of evidence.
The official 9/11 commission report found there was “no evidence that Iran or Hezbollah was aware of the planning for what later became the 9/11 attack”, and that 15 out of the 19 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia, and the remainder were from the United Arab Emirates, Lebanon and Egypt. Moreover, Suleimani’s name is never mentioned in the nearly 600-page report.
Experts have also pointed out that Suleimani, a Shia leader, would have been an unlikely ally to the Sunni militants that carried out the attacks.
This isn’t the first time that the Trump administration and supporters have promoted a link between al-Qaida – the group that launched the 9/11 attack – and Iran. Insisting that these groups are in cahoots could be key in legally justifying a war against Iran.
A 2001 law allows the president “to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons” – without waiting for congressional approval.
Though Iran, and its proxy group Hezbollah in Lebanon, has cooperated with al-Qaida before, both the 9/11 commission report and a 2018 study by the New America thinktank, based on roughly 470,000 declassified files found that the groups didn’t work together to commit terrorist acts.
Despite criticism from policy experts, Pence’s press secretary, Kate Walderman, later doubled down on the claim that Suleimani somehow assisted the 9/11 hijackers, but did not offer evidence.
Off course Suleimani was a horrible person no one would argue with that. But the question here is "Is Suleimani's elimination a good thing for the interests of America and its allies in the region ?".
And the answer is "No".
Every US citizen in the region is now in serious danger to suffer from the consequences of Iran's response, particulary US military. Israel is at risk too.
Some might say "If they kill one of our boys, we would kill 10 of theirs, 10 of theirs, 1,000 of theirs". And I know that, for those who think like that, iranian civilian deaths do not count.
But even if you answer by killing 1,000 iranians, was it worth having one american boy coming back home in a body-bag ? I know these people would kill 1,000,000 iranian to spare on US live. My question to them is "Would you sign up for one US boy killed in exchange for 1,000 iranians killed ? Or would you rather spare all these lives ?"
