Maybe you should read what the great ones on this board have said about using "but".

It is not the Jews fault they are getting attacked but...
You get the picture?
Haha.. But in this case you should appreciate the "but", I don't think anyone else understood it otherwise and still I tried my best not accusing you as a liar  ;)

So while you joke do have the reason why it happened now?
I have no idea.

On the face of it, doing it to distract from impeachment doesn't make sense.

My gut feeling is that there wasn't any one big reason for it being now, it just worked out this way.
It's probably something that's been on the table for a while, the embassy attack may have been the straw that broke the camel's back.
There's also the opportunity factor; how often is he in Iraq and they know exactly where he is?
And as for whatever he's been planning going forward, I'm not convinced it's anything significantly worse than what he's been doing until now. (i.e. it explains why he's a legit target but doesn't answer why now specifically)

So why are there "conflicting reports from the WH and DOD?" (I'm gonna take your word for it that this is the case, I really haven't paid much attention to what anyone was saying.)
1. Messaging has never been this administration's strong point.
2. they're trying a little too hard to blow up the importance of doing it right now, even if the reason is as I said above, primarily to avoid accusations of it being to distract from impeachment.
3.for Trump there's no such thing as "now is when it just happened to all come together' it has to be "This is the best, most appropriate, time there ever was and ever will be for this"

The best why to do that was not to mention the word. Still waiting for you to call out @dealfinder11 lies. I can provide links so there is no confusion if you like.

I have no idea.
We agree on this one.

WH says it was because on imminent attacks and DOD say because of future planned attacks. Pompeo when asked if imminent meant days or weeks he would not answer the question.

With Trumps comments about how the past president would start a war (completely false) to get reelected it brings into question if this was his mindset.

This is how you twists things continually. I can provide links to his lies.
You sure you are not a white supremacist to get people to hate Jews?  ;D
I put a grin so that makes the comment ok.

Try an put yourself in my position if you want to be fair. I member makes up blatant lies against me and no responds except for one honest member. Then out of no where a member shows up takes something out of context and inserts the word "liar".
Just a thought. I agree with you at times, and disagree at times. I have different views than many here have. I don't get involved in the political arguments, because people decide to think things of others based on their political stances, secondly, because I can't recall a time when a political argument ended with one side agreeing with the other, and 3rd, because most of these arguments come from emotion, over facts (which are typically unavailable to some extent.) You tend take up opinions that differ from most here (quite possibly a result of the different upbringing/lives you, and many here lead) which leads to you getting "ganged up on" as it would appear. I don't think it's a Jewish/not Jewish thing, but more of a difference in opinion. Part of it is probably also how you tend to argue. If you believe what you say (you seem to) why have these arguments here? This isn't the first time (IIRC) that you've made a comment like this, so why bother engaging with those individuals who you often call "cool aid drinkers" or "head in the sand"? Not trying to argue, agree, disagree, or hate, just trying to offer some insight. Hope this doesn't come across different from how I intended it to.

What you say makes sense and I fully understand. This is my outlet while I MS/trade from my computer (no PM's). So far I did a ton of trades today.
My point is if you are in these discussions and you see me make something up about someone call me out on it. Also if the opposite happens call them out on it also. The problem is the second part rarely if ever happens.

Little off topic but germane to what is going on. Has anyone watched The ----- Report? Documentary about the CIA's involvement with EIT (AKA torture).

I hear ya. This thread didn't start as a hardcore political conversation, which is the only reason I clicked on it. I can't speak for others, or other threads that I'm not involved in. My guess is, that being that so many are arguing with you specifically (a direct result of you voicing your differing opinion, which is a minority opinion here it seems) , anything you say, will be torn apart much more than someone throwing in a random comment. More people are focusing on your comments than others as they are directly engaging with you ;D

I was forwarded it from Belaaz. Not sure where they got it.


ETA: It's all over twitter from multiple news agencies as well.

Don't forget that there were 8 others who were killed togehter withhim. Each one worthy of a targeted killing in their own right.

yes. Just like he did over here.
Unless amidst your [seemingly perpetual state of] rage you decided to throw every unrelated topic against the wall to see what stuck, you did sir.

Best week for Trump since the Muller report.
Are you confusing him with me?

Amazing all you can go to is how this affects Trump politically.
