I don't think anyone disagrees that Soleimani was a very bad dude. Very bad. Saddam was pretty fuckin' bad too and you saw what his death created. I expect our leaders to pick their battles and to have a plan. I don't think that's too much to ask. No one knew this was going down. This administration told people to leave AFTER the fact. Wouldn't you agree that the time to get people out would have been before the danger rather than after? The guests at his gawdy resort knew, Congress didn't. Putin knew as well and so did the murdering crown prince. Anyway, it's so much more than getting Americans out safely.
