4. At the direction of #Iran’s Supreme Leader,Soleimani was plotting a coup in #Iraq. He was corrupting/threatening politicians, exploiting Iraq’s resources & bringing a large military force loyal to him,in an effort to make Iraq a platform to attack the U.S. & our allies 2/2 — PolitiTweet.org

1. Soleimani wasn’t “assasinated”,he was killed on the battlefield during active operations. 2. He was in #Iraq in violation of a 2007 UN Security Council travel ban 3. He spent the last few days coordinating imminent attacks against American citizens,allies & interests 1/2 — PolitiTweet.org

FICTION:Armed conflict can always be avoided FACT:Sadly,sometimes the only way to avoid armed conflict is surrender or capitulation. And sometimes the best way to avoid a broader conflict is limited but decisive action that leaves a clear cost-benefit calculus for an adversary — PolitiTweet.org

FICTION: Trump ordered the assasination of a foreign “General” and as a result has placed us on the brink of war. FACT: Soleimani was an active enemy combatant, more dangerous than evil men such as Bin Laden & Baghdadi & who operated without regard for the law of war — PolitiTweet.org
Marco Rubio @marcorubio
FICTION: Trump is desperate to start a war in the Middle East FACT: Trump has had several opportunities to justifiably respond militarily to Iran & did not. He has tried everything short of capitulation to avoid armed conflict with Iran. — PolitiTweet.org

#Soleimani is directly responsible for previous & future plans to KILL U.S diplomats & American service members in #Iraq & throughout the region. But some are so blinded by hatred of Trump that they argue he has done something sinister. Its crazy. Total derangement. — PolitiTweet.org

Marco Rubio @marcorubio
Over a decade before @realDonaldTrump was even President #Soleimani was using IEDs to kill & maim American soldiers in #Iraq So you need to suffer from a special kind of Anti-Trump derangement to argue that @potus is to blame for the violent actions of #Iran’s #IRGC — PolitiTweet.org
Marco Rubio @marcorubio
I don’t want & have not pushed for war with #Iran But when an adversary decides to use force to attack our Armed Forces @potus has an affirmative duty to defend against & if possible prevent such attacks. — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S. exercised economic pressure on Iran Iran chose to respond to economic pressure with #IRGC sponsored & directed attacks aimed at killing Americans For months @POTUS has exercised tremendous restraint These are facts & any other view is either a misinformed one or a lie — PolitiTweet.org
Marco Rubio @marcorubio
You don’t have to support @potus withdrawing from the #IranDeal or his “maximum pressure” campaign to support the proposition that planning,conducting,directing or funding attacks aimed at killing Americans merits a swift & decisive response. — PolitiTweet.org
Marco Rubio @marcorubio
The defensive actions the U.S. has taken against #Iran & its proxies are consistent with clear warnings they have received They chose to ignore these warnings because they believed @POTUS was constrained from acting by our domestic political divisions They badly miscalculated — PolitiTweet.org
Marco Rubio @marcorubio
Facing repeated #IRGC attacks the U.S. & @potus exercised admirable restraint while setting clear red lines & the consequences for crossing them #Iran’s Quds Force chose the path of escalation They are entirely to blame for bringing about the dangerous moment now before us. — PolitiTweet.org
