Ethics??? In the International war OF Terror???
Soleimani was the guy who beat ISIS, and (for a time) Al Qaeda in Syria. He was murdered (by ISIS and Al Qaeda's sponsors) without warning, while on a Diplomatic mission, in a third country. Sounds like a war crime, to me...
Here's a hint... There's NO WAY, to turn off America's air defenses, from a cave in Afghanistan. That can only be done from the White House, the Pentagon, or NORAD.
As Jake Sullivan put it, in a State Department cable to Hillary Clinton, released by Wikileaks, "AQ (Al Qaeda) is on our side in Syria" - so THERE is your 'war on Terror'...
Signed up and looking forward to the classes…will share!
