We take comfort in knowing that his reign of terror is ov over. Soleimani has been perpetrating acts of terror to destabilize the middle east for the last 20 years. What the United States did yesterday should have been done long ago. The use of administration content is what triggered the president s decision to strike was new intelligence about pending attacks targeting americans directed by soleimani who had become a fixture in baghdad, directing shiite militias. In terms of the short term, the impotent attacks that Qassem Soleimani was planning, but doing nothing shows weakness, it emboldens iran. Soleimani went from shadowy commander to making a highprofile visits. An armed American Drug was wet for him when he exited his flight from lebanon and his convoy prepared to leave the Baghdad Airport.

We are just a few minutes ago report is coming in, the television station and also sky news arabia, they are citing witnesses on the ground that say they had seen the air strike in northern baghdad against two vehicles, a small vehicle traveling there come a report saying the people inside those vehicles were members of the pmf.

Bret Central Command not confirming this again, report that we heard last night which led to eventually confirmation of this strike at the Baghdad Airport. President trump says hes prepared to take whatever action necessary to protect americans but many lawmakers especially on the other side of the aisle are fiercely critical of this move. Correspondent kevin corke is outside the capitol tonight. Bold move by a president determined to protect American Life or a reckless time that will make them less safe . As often the case, the viewpoint is dependent on your politics in washington. We took action last night to stop a war. We did not take action to start a war. President trumps bellow was as cautious as cautionary. Target americans and youll pay the ultimate price. We are unambiguous to terrorists who intend to harm any american. We will find you. We will eliminate you. The president signaled a willingness to make a deal with iran, tweeting that iran has never won a war but never lost negotiation. He accused the iranian terrorist of killing her badly wounding thousands of americans and said he was plotting to kill many more but got caught. The aftermath more than celebrated by the iraqis, dancing in the streets for freedom tweeted mike pompeo, but drew a cascade of democratic dissent risking further escalations, saying illinois senator dick durbin. Chris murphy called the white house totally unprepared for the consequences. Washingtons adam smith accuse the president of bringing the country to a brink of another war.

They were similar concentration from democrats following the illumination abu bacaro alba dottie. This time, senator Lindsey Graham was read in before the strike. The last of the people you want to talk to about this is democrats in congress, republicans in congress. All the democrats but his eyes to be president , i was aware of what his options were. They were about to unleash holy hell and the president decisively took action. White house Officials Say they are aware the resulting fallout from the strike on general soleimani could include terror plots already in motion across the globe, bret. But they insist his demise was long overdue and much, much needed. Bret kevin corke live in West Palm Beach, florida. Lets get some insight on the situation with iran pit norman roll is a former iran Mission Director for norman, thanks for being here. My pleasure. Bret people who have not been following who soleimani is, how significant is this strike . This is a significant body blow to the islamic republic. A man responsible to all their external adventurism has just been eliminated. Hell be difficult to replace as an icon, as a symbol. Bret its important to remember that it wasnt just yesterday this started. The timeline for this effort really goes back sometime. We should remember for about a year, the administration has been publicly calling for iran to cease its threat to American Forces in iraq and the region. Thereve been public and private state regards. Theres been the tabs to deal with the iraqi government. In many Ways Committee administration has pursued base iran chose badly. Bret i asked the secretary of state back in april about this effort to put soleimani on a terrorist list. April of last year take a look. The head of the ai rgc, this man Qassem Soleimani is by all accounts a bad man and lead all kinds of attacks. But are you saying that he now is equated to, lets say, the head of isis, alba in u. S. Policyperspective . Hes a terrorist. Bret that we as a country have a policy to target him or capture him . Qassem soleimani that has the blood of americans on his hands, bret, as the force that he leads and america is determined each time we find an organization or individual that has taken the lives of americans, its our responsibility, indeed President Trumps duty. Bret the question is what happens now. What does p23 do, you think . The easy answer is to make life more difficult for the United States in iraq, threaten our partners in the region, primarily is reality. But the emirates, saudi arabia and kuwait, but for the irradiance, theyve got to seek three things simultaneously that punishes the United States and deters further attacks, doesnt bring in the europeans, they need the diplomatic support. But most of bartley, doesnt compel the United States to respond in action that could bring about the end of the islamic republic. Bret attacking israel is off the case . It wouldnt be their first choice because it doesnt allow them to punish the americans were directly as possible for the death of Qassem Soleimani. Bret Cyber Attacks . Certainly likely and part of the routine playbook but they like i think the punch that iran would like to undertake. What about the sections and whats happening inside iran. Do we have a good sense of what the sanctions are doing on the boot of the neck of the country there . The administration has provided a lot of information to show that the you they do have an ideawhats happ. For iran, inevitably that they know the sanctions will produce economic problems thatll bring about the end of the regime. What this means that iran will have to strike out against the International Community to compel them to push back on washington in this regard. Bret there is an iranian journalist who twisted out this. For many, general soleimani was a monster who caused many casualties in syria. Unfortunately, western media misses the point by glorifying soleimani. He was the common enemy for the people in iran, lebanon, iraq, and syria. His involvement in a crackdown in the late 1990s was another black mark against him. Goes on to say that a lot of people in iran are happy that soleimani was killed. Bret there were a number of videos of iranians tearing down pictures of Qassem Soleimani. He did remain a popular figure in iran and the regime is going to use every tool at his Propaganda Machine to whip up a frenzy of support in order to provide improve their own stability. In the region, Qassem Soleimani had political enemies, competitors, and some of them are happy that he is gone. Bret i want to play one more sound bite. This is a common argument we heard today from democratic politicians in particular. The same group of warmongering political ideologues told americans that the iraq war would lead to democracy, breaking out in the middle east are telling us today that the irradiance will be celebrating in the streets. The truth is that this action will likely usher in the most militant parliaments in iran weve seen in decades. Bret senator chris van hollen. They are saying that essentially soleimani more dangerous now as a martyr in iran . Im not sure thats true. In the short term, the iranian government is going to web of a frenzy of internal support, but the state has provided a compelling statement, that the administration has intelligence that americans were to die had they not undertaking this action. Thats an important fact. I think it might be a reach to say that irans next parliament is going to be decided solely on the basis of the american actions. I think irans going to decide on the basis of their terrible political, social, and environmental problems. Bret what are we not thinking about here because a lot of things are being said, but the think we are not thinking about . What we need to focus on is this needs to be an international flight. This is not just americas battle. Your pester with us in the fight against isis, your posted with us in the fight against al qaeda. Europe needs to stand with United States to tell iran that this is a time to deescalate. The secretary of state has publicly stated, reached out to many partners to say we are interested in avoiding a conflict. Free to tell the irradiance that they need to stop this dangerous series of reprisals before this can end. Bret a nonpartisan voice in the intelligence asset and we appreciate your expertise. Thank you. Bret up next, well look at the economic ramifications of the American Strike against irans top general.
