I genuinely can't figure out why someone in his position would be so hostile toward the current administration in times like these. I know he's a far-left Obama nutbag, but as a former CIA Director, I have to imagine maybe he would put country first, and if nothing else, just shut his piehole. I've been skeptical of the whole "He knows he's in trouble with Trump in the WH" idea, but he should at least be smart enough to know that the crap he spews helps Trump more than it hurts him.
ALF Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Iran Air flight 655, flight of an Iranian airliner that was shot down by the missile cruiser USS Vincennes on July 3, 1988, over the Strait of Hormuz, killing all 290 people on board. The passenger plane, which was in Iranian airspace, had been incorrectly identified as a fighter jet. https://www.britannica.com/event/Iran-Air-flight-655 Mistakes happen in a war zone

If Trump said "This falls under the existing AUMF," he'd still be getting massive ***** for it. But it would also be a completely different argument.

Trump could not care less about the inner circle of Ivy League intellectuals, nor how things "have always been done" Government in North America is essentially carried out by a Civil Service (as called here and the UK) and it has full tenure and never chooses a political side and sits there smiling knowing that another government will be around in a few years Trump has completely erased their access to his Office and reduced their chain of custody of advice and intelligence

So is Pompeo. ***** him too? Or do you actually want to ***** him?

Warren Zevon Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) 1 hour ago, CoudyBills said: You hadn't thought of that? Really? I'm a conservative and this was the very first thought I had when I asked myself what the sub-humans would try to make of this whole thing. If they had not attacked the embassy this whole thing would have been avoided. How far back should we go? '79? It's true, though. If Iran had not attacked the embassy the plane would not have been shot down. If Soleimani was not killed the plane would not have been shot down. If the plane was grounded it would not have been shot down. Facts don't play the blame game, they're facts. The questions should be, in light of all these facts, what should the consequence(s) for Iran be for mistakenly/purposefully (hope we have good intelligence) targeting the plane? Should the US be responsible for any of the consequence(s)? Edited January 9, 2020 by Gary Busey

I agree they are factual. Regarding the downing of the plane I think we have to let the international community determine that route. Anything else from the US would be considered an escalation and salt in the wound. 1
