CNN is reporting about demonstrators in Iran mourning Soleimani and vowing revenge. CNN doesn’t tell you about the other Iranians, as well as Iraqis, who are celebrating the death of the man who was responsible for destroying the lives of so many of their people. See the hashtag #TnxPOTUS4Soleimani on Twitter.

In Iraq its sunnis and kurds celebrate his death
Kepha says
The Islamic world is a powder keg of tribal and sectarian divisions. Today, the Sunni Arabs and Kurds celebrate the death of Soleimani; but I had a Shi’ite Iraqi student who was thankful to Bush for taking out Hussein. In contrast, at the end of WOrld War II, Japan was still a country trying hard to be part of the modern world, while Germany could dust off a long tradition of thinkers and theorists of non-dictatorial government. It dusted off Johannes Althusius, an early 17th century theorist, as a semi-founding father of the Bundesrepublik ideal. In the Islamic world, we have no such thing in the native tradition.

Thank-you Mr. President!
Clinger denier says
Winning!

It’s impossible to see where this is heading but for now it doesn’t look good.
Bruce says
We will see after Soleimani funeral. But open boarder countries in more danger than our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Siddi Nasrani says
“A BIG Thank-you Mr. President! With all my heart, love & peace to the people of IRAN “
Walter Sieruk says
This US drone airstrike which eliminated that brutal, violent and murderous Iranian terrorists commander , at the Baghdad airport, is thievery best way of sending those cruel ruthless jihad –minded rulers in power in the “mullah regime “ of Iran a message in the only language that they will understand. Which is a message sent with and by the power of strong military might.
As Thomas Jefferson had, so clearly, declared, “With every barbarous people …force is law.”

This is the shame of CNN. It was the Iranian revolution which really made them. CNN started in June 1980. I was moving from Junior school to High school in 1979.
The revolution was on the TV constantly and I was transfixed by it.
CNN saw the horrors that it brought, I remember a CNN crew being present when some gay men were machine gunned and the look on the faces of the reporter & crew, absolute horror.
And now they pander to it, for access. To appease them
They should look at their old video tapes.
And the tragedy of Christiane Amanpour, she is of Iranian origin on her fathers side. She should know better.
Jennifer says
Good points Rueben Singh.
Yeah now try pander to people that want to kill them, Stupid Canadian government does exactly that . Brain dead liberals.
RCCA says
I’m praying that the bravest people of Iran, those who have been fighting for freedom from the mullahs’ oppression, will soon seize this opportunity to liberate themselves. This is their moment.
Infidel says
Before you canonize them, please verify whether they include mass apostasy as one of their commitments: in other words, in a post Ayatollah Iran, would Islam be banned, the way Nazism was in Germany following WWII? If no (which is the likely answer), let’s not assume things that are just not true

Important points.
We’ve been waiting over forty years for the ‘brave Iranian people’ to make a serious move against the Mullahs, and have been told it is happening–well, any minute now…
I’d love to see it, but I won’t be holding my breath.
TKF says
In the end they will fear us. All concessions are seen as a weakness to be exploited. Force and power are the only language these people understand and respect.

Iranians, Iraqis celebrate Soleimani’s death, thank Trump #TnxPOTUS4Soleimani

In Iraq, this is probably largely sectarian–i.e., Sunnis. But in Iran itself this is far less likely to be the case.
Infidel says
We assumed that after the fall of Saddam, we’d be welcomed by the Iraqi people and greeted as liberators. To the extent that that happened at all, it lasted at the most, a week, before every faction in Iraq started fighting anybody to grab power, including the Americans.
Similarly, let’s not lie to ourselves and pretend that the Iranians and Iraqis are suddenly our fans just b’cos we killed Soleimani
