Iranian Assassination & U.S. Anti-War Protest — Tomorrow!

Who knows why No.45 assassinated Iran’s top general. He wants a new feather in his war bonnet? So his poor, white, downtrodden followers hail him as Glorious Strongman? There’s money to be made?

#NoWarWithIran

Congress, alone, has the power to authorize war. They were not consulted. What a slap in the face — right after Congress approved Trump’s inflated military budget! (During the impeachment process, no less).

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) has a few choice words to say.

Soleimani was an enemy of the United States. That’s not a question.

The question is this – as reports suggest, did America just assassinate, without any congressional authorization, the second most powerful person in Iran, knowingly setting off a potential massive regional war?

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) tried to head-off such an action.

Lets be clear.

In 2002, Congress voted to give President Bush the power to go to war in Iraq.

Three weeks ago, our Congress let our nation down again by failing to stand up against a war in Iran. /2 https://t.co/k0V5bninkr

The future (I hope) President responded. Sen. Bernie Sanders will do every in his power to prevent a war with Iran.

I was right about Vietnam.

I was right about Iraq.

I will do everything in my power to prevent a war with Iran.

I apologize to no one. pic.twitter.com/Lna3oBZMKB

Unhappy with drums of war? Join the anti-war protest. Tomorrow: Saturday, January 4, 2020. National day of action: No More U.S. Troops to Iraq or the Middle East! U.S. Out of Iraq Now! And No War/No Sanctions on Iran!
