Not at all Gary. There is a world of difference between those two
strikes. In the recent case the US hit an Iranian militia unit that it
blamed for a rocket attack on an American facility. Trump was faulted
for the drone strike on Qasem Soleimani, He was one of the top guys in
Iraq and he was on his way to a meeting with the Iraqi prime minister at
the time. It was highly inappropriate for the US to assassinate a
foreign national in another country while we was there on official
business.
