Advice noted, thanks. Yep, very good point. Little anxiety on how Iran may respond though.

People asking how we get around killing this guy without getting Congress to approve, this is how. He is the leader of an officially designated Foreign Terrorist Organization. The fact that heโs also a Major General in the Iranian military matters not - the Quds Force are terrorists according to our government, and we are officially at War with terrorists all across the planet, wherever they are.

Wouldn't be surprised on the pallet of cash. The Dems are already condemning Trump's action and the R's are congratulating. No surprise. From the Pentagon statement, Trump had good reason to give this Go order strike.
Who knows where this is all going and what happens next. I have a feeling we won't have to wait long.
