Killing Soleimani undermines global order : Comments

By Alon Ben-Meir, published 23/1/2020

This begs the question as to what sort of global order we will have left if the leaders of one country eliminate the leaders of another simply because they deem them ruthless.

So, which particular "global order" did Soleimani follow when he directed the killing of hundreds of other people?

"Those who applaud the assassination of General Soleimani seem to simply equate him to a terrorist who certainly deserved to meet his fate".

He was a terrorist against the West, and he did deserve his fate. It is that 'simple'. And he was NOT a head of state like actual heads of states that Ben- Meir attempts to liken him with. There has always been an unwritten convention that countries don't knock off each other's heads of state. All his "just image" musings are irrelevant.

Just another tediously typical anti-Trump effort.

I can understand the reservations involved in this action.
There is one modification to our reasoning that is needed.
In Islam, if it benefits Islam then it is acceptable.
To kill unbelievers is required when they reject Islam.
Moslems work on a different ethic standard that rejects others standards.
So we have two ethical standards that are quite incompatible.
In this case we have adopted the Islamic standard.

'The Ukraine debacle, which blew up in his face and those of his top political advisors'

Alan demonstrates that he really is part of the swamp. I take it he is talking about how many of the democrats children received high paying jobs in the Ukraine. Must be hard having egg all over your face for 3 years eh Alan. Instead of shutting up you just dig deeper.

President Trump will be the first US President to speak at the 'March for Life Rally'. Real pity those pretending to mourn the death of a terrorist are simply about politics not concern for life.

Life with the KISS theory says; Trump is not Obama.

Obama is a homosexual, his spouse is a tranvestite, and their kids are adopted.

All praise Donald Trump and God bless America.

From having kept an eye on what has been going on in the Middle East on alternative news sites more than that originating from the Western mainstream media, I reckon this assessment by Alon Ben Meir is right. Unlike most other articles I have seen that he has written which almost always have contained points I disagreed with. Also, it expresses largely opposite viewpoints to the recent one from another Jew, Australian David Singer. He claimed General Soleimani's assassination would be a vote winner for Trump after probably having heard little, if anything about all the protests both in the US and elsewhere against it.

Then it remains to be seen what the long effect of this will be on Trump's re election prospects. Apparently General Soleimani had a succession plan in place in case he was killed as sometimes he visited the front line in military operations. Seems with his Deputy taking over as Quds commander, its military capabilities are unlikely to be adversely affected. Then important to note that instead of throwing resistance to US hegemony in the Middle East into disarray as apparently intended, this seems to be having the opposite effect. ie Uniting various groups who have long records of disputes -even including wars against each other and direct their efforts to driving the US military out of their area.

Seems the US "Deep State" has a record of attempting many assassinations of political leaders from various bits of apparent evidence. However, this one may be the first admission of being responsible for a successful effort. For a start, even some of their own Presidents. Including Warren Harding in the 1920's. and John F Kennedy. The latter had opposed proposed military intervention in Vietnam which the "Deep State" wanted. Also commenced dismantling the privately owned racket controlling the US money supply, the Federal Reserve. Among the first things Vice President Lyndon Johnson did on taking office was restore it and also start a war in Vietnam by peddling some deliberate lies.

There seems one high level political leader who

Islam does not have "The Golden Rule".
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Any action that advantages Islam is OK.
So to kill a moslem is wrong, but to kill a Kufar is OK.
It is called Taqiyya. It covers everything from lying to Kufars
to killing them.

Just saw a video from Sweden which states that "Refugees will cost Sweden $18.6 Billion this yea9.3 x over Budget."
Fewer than 500 of 163, asylum seekers found jobs !

Anyone have figures on the Australian situation ?

I think Individual you meant 50 not 500.
There was 280 explosions in Sweden in 2019.
A lot of them were reported as hand grenades.
Can you imagine that ?
Most are in the Malmo town which is majority muslim, surprise surprise.
Malmo wa the town that had its police station blown up, so they built
a new fortified station.

What happened to those wild Vikings ? They have become pussy cats !

Very soon the Swedish welfare system will end. It has always been
widely appreciated by Swedes. However with the migrant moslem load the
government is not collecting enough taxes and services are being cut back.

The way the moslem immigrants take over government functions is shown
in the UK where the police consider that trafficking of under
age English girls by "Asians" (code for Pakistanis) is permitted by the Police.
The senior officers stated that that taking action would cause trouble.
One Paki gave one of the girls a fatal heroin injection but he was not
arrested. If you critise the gangs you will get a visit from the thought police.
It is a widespread practise in the UK covering most major cities.
It is run like UBER, dial the right taxi company and they will pick you up.
One father was arrested and taken away for trying to get into the
house to rescue his daughter.
He was charged with damaging a door.
