There are many who accuse U.S. President Donald Trump of \u201cwagging the dog\u201d when it comes to the recent bombing that killed Al Quds commander Qassem Soleimani due to the fact he is facing impeachment. While many media outlets have stated this accusation suggesting the assassination of Iran\u2019s Soleimani was pre-planned, to this writer\u2019s knowledge no one has pointed out that five total Pentagon officials resigned prior to the murder or Eric Trump\u2019s strange tweet about \u201copening a can of whoop ass,\u201d right before the New Year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wag the Dog<\/em> was released one month before the outbreak of the Lewinsky scandal and the subsequent bombing of the Al-Shifa pharmaceutical factory in Sudan by the Clinton administration in August 1998, which prompted the media to draw comparisons between the film and reality. The comparison was also made in December 1998 when the administration initiated a bombing campaign of Iraq during Clinton\u2019s impeachment trial over the Lewinsky scandal. \u2013 Wikipedia<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Although the evidence is not directly from documents, it\u2019s worth mentioning that prior to the assassination of Soleimani a total of five high-ranking Pentagon officials resigned, The Hill<\/em> reported<\/strong><\/span>.<\/a> Those officials were \u2014 Ambassador\u00a0Tina Kaidanow<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, senior adviser for international cooperation; Randall Schriver<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, the top Asia policy official; Jimmy Stewart<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, the acting undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness; Steven Walker<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, head of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and Kari Bingen<\/strong><\/span><\/a>; principal deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many said they were resigning for various different reasons but the probability of all resigning at once before a big move that could spark global conflict is slim to none.\u00a0 This may be because the option for killing Soleimani was presented around this time which many saw as a potential \u201cwar move\u201d and these Pentagon officials didn\u2019t want to be involved with the next conflict. Entirely speculation, but warranted, since if we dig even deeper we can see this option indeed was presented to Trump as an \u201cextreme measure\u201d according to government officials who spoke under the condition of anonymity to the New York Times<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/em>. Further, former National Security Adviser John Bolton, also tweeted that it was \u201clong in the making,\u201d congratulating his former administration.<\/span><\/p>\n

Congratulations to all involved in eliminating Qassem Soleimani. Long in the making, this was a decisive blow against Iran's malign Quds Force activities worldwide. Hope this is the first step to regime change in Tehran.<\/p>\n
