NATO leader urges ‘restraint’ as Iran vows to avenge U.S. killing of military leader GlobePolitics

This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.The NATO military alliance’s top civilian leader said member countries stand behind the United States in the wake of Iran’s vow to avenge the U.S. killing of a prominent Iranian military leader.

The emergency meeting came after Iranians vowed revenge for a U.S. drone strike in Iraq last week that killed top Iranian general Qassem Soleimani. The U.S. briefed allies in Brussels on the attack. Iraqi lawmakers passed a non-binding resolution on Sunday to expel U.S. troops from Iraq. NATO’s civilian chief declined to say whether NATO forces would leave if requested.

The NATO mission in Baghdad was established in the fall of 2018 after three years of war against the Islamic State as a"train and assist" mission to help Iraqi security forces and government institutions keep IS from regaining a foothold in the country. “If I start to speculate on how we will react, it will not help to de-escalate. It will actually do the opposite. So we call [for] responsible behavior. We believe in the importance of de-escalation and restraint.”Story continues below advertisement

He repeated however that NATO member countries remain concerned about attacks on coalition forces by Iran and Iranian-supported groups.

globepolitics Restraint is the only way as the true intentions of this nonsense anti-globalist ideology becomes more evident. MAGA means the revival of the military-industrial complex and as making NATO members feel guilty over not paying their fair share a world war will certainly make money

globepolitics NATO leaders silent in Iran's State sponsored terrorism, the murdering if hundreds of unarmed protestors, the murders of Israelis, the hanging if LGBTQ community members, the attacking of consulates.

globepolitics LOL, checkmate...

Trump tweets Iran will 'never have a nuclear weapon'U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday repeated his insistence that Iran will not be allowed to obtain a nuclear weapon, amid mounting tension over the US killing of a top Iranian commander. He says the same thing about North Korea, and they have a nuclear weapon. Great news He is right. Imagine Iran and Islamic government that willfully supports and promotes the evils of religious terrorism having suit case nukes. The world had better take some hard lessons from Israel or face the deadly consequences for being pathetically weak willed.
