President Donald Trump's claim that the drone strike last week made Americans safer is being challenging by cascading events that appear to leave the US more vulnerable and isolated.The administration's basis for the attack also came under renewed suspicion after Secretary of State Mike Pompeo told CNN that it was not"relevant" for him to reveal how imminent the attacks on US interests were that Trump said Soleimani was planning.
The Secretary of State also improbably claimed that the Obama administration"kicked off" a war with Iran with its deal that froze Iran's enrichment activity and halted what the US says was a march towards a nuclear bomb."It told the Iranians that they had free rein to develop a Shia crescent that extended from Yemen to Iraq to Syria and into Lebanon, surrounding our ally Israel, and threatening American lives as well," Pompeo said.
StCollinson Wrong. All of our allies are standing with us and have agreed with the decision stating Soleimani was not a friend of theirs
StCollinson Not so long ago Obama killed Bin Laden. CNN praised Obama for it. Soleimani is 10 times worse. Their gov is forcing them to show up or die. CNN you need to report on the stampede that has killed 35 of their own at the funeral. Who is not safe? Also this happen nothing fm CNN👇
StCollinson CNN being a cheerleader for anything anti-Trump. Shamefully undermining America 24 hours each day.
StCollinson Trump, his administration and the republicans who support him own this war... unfortunately it the rest of Americans who will pay the price... and Trump et al do not care
StCollinson
StCollinson Trump,lied
StCollinson If killing a terrorist that kills Americans make us Isolated then so be it. Has to be done
StCollinson Didn’t we see this in the ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ sword fight scene?
StCollinson You’re NWOPropaganda
StCollinson These are the times we find out who truly belongs in 'the land of the free and the home of the brave'.
StCollinson And hate being promoted by CNN.
StCollinson Where's your reporting on this?

StCollinson Such BS.
StCollinson CNN is garbage
StCollinson CNN so irrelevant these days...
StCollinson Iran is mourning. Not for Qassem Suleimani, for the thousands who were killed in the ABAN protests. Qassim Suleimani is the murderer. IraniansDetestSoleimani IranRegimeChange TnxPOTUS4Soleimani
StCollinson The killing of soleimani was staged. Soleimani now works for the Trump administration carrying out similar duties he did for the Iranian regime. Anyone caught resisting the Trump administration will be killed. Thank you POTUS dbongino JessicaWSwenson charliekirk11
StCollinson If killing a terrorist doesn’t make one safer, what does?
StCollinson Americans isn't safer at all and more vulnerable than ever since this corrupted President been in office. The country is divided within itself and the President has no respect for the constitution. He wants to be like Putin a dictator.
StCollinson President Trump knew that Iran can’t strike back because it would be a distraction and a waste of needed resources for 2020.
StCollinson CNN is a fake news axes of evil
StCollinson The last time CNN gave this much love to a terrorist nation, there was a Republican in the White House.. hmmm
StCollinson
StCollinson
StCollinson This shit so disrespectful
StCollinson Did the left say we were safer when Obama killed Osama Yes they did Are we safer now They hated us long before Trump Long before Obama Long before Bush Long before Clinton GET THE POINT !
StCollinson Since you guys seem to have a hard time finding important shit to report on. Here. I'll help you out.
Extremists pro-Iranian could avenge Soleimani with attacks against USA& Trump could consider Iran responsible& apply his huge menace without any order of action against USA from Iran authority? So Iran could be destroyed only because it is defended by freelance terrorists?
StCollinson Iran has been at war with America since 1979.
StCollinson
StCollinson 'appear to leave'? according to whom? mostly Democrats & Never Trumpers
StCollinson So why the extra security at Trump's properties
StCollinson Yeah you’d like that CNN wouldn’t you. You are hoping Americans are hurt or killed just so you can dump on Trump. Ted Turner must be cringing as to how you have destroyed what he created.
StCollinson CNN is constantly aiding and abetting our nation's adversaries. Their rhetoric undermines the President and his efforts to keep America safe. Fake, manufactured, partisan news
StCollinson Isolated or independent.
StCollinson Well no duh there are consequences for the crap he caused!
StCollinson How long will the liberal Media mourn the killing of a terrorist?
StCollinson Iran was chanting “ death to America” long before this Iranian Terrorist was blown to smithereens. We were safer after Bin Laden was killed, and we are safer after this Terrorist was killed. You can’t say killing Bin Laden made us safer and say the opposite about this Terrorist.
StCollinson Should have let him live, like Osama Bin Laden so he could wreck havoc on the world for 10 additional years, then take him out in a grand capture. The man was a monster.
StCollinson 'Imminent threat' means possible threat. Imminent is circumstantial evidence. Dead is physical evidence with trump giving verbal premeditated intent to murder. Iran has legal physical evidence with a confession by Trump of murder.
StCollinson If it was BarackObama you would be doing everything in your power to justify the actions, you partisan hacks.
StCollinson CNN loves terrorists.
StCollinson Looks like your employee is getting scared. Why haven't you reported on this pos? 🤔
StCollinson Just think, we are not apologizing for putting American lives first. Second, we are not sending billions of dollars to Iran. This one life could have saved hundreds of lives.
StCollinson Your less critical of Iran than their own state media. But we know your priorities.
StCollinson When did CNN become the Iranian state news network?
StCollinson
StCollinson Anderson Cooper Don lemon, other gays... that terrorist in Iran he would’ve hung them for being Gay, makes a lot of sense to me..
StCollinson Hard reveng
StCollinson Bullshit

StCollinson
StCollinson
StCollinson President Trump leads from the front, not the rear. realDonaldTrump
StCollinson Days ago Iraq people was happy for the dead of the monster. Today some people mourns over the dead of the monster and swears revenge, some sadly are important politicians. Disgusting! He was a terrorist!! He was evil! Stop the nonsense! President Trump did a great job!
StCollinson It is not a good job which done by usa.
StCollinson Trump's claim about the assassination making us safer is absurd beyond belief. His lies get bolder and bolder.
Zigmanfreud StCollinson 'Isolated'? a billion Sunnis in the region hate Iran
StCollinson CNN, always crying wolf. We are no longer paying attention. Maybe you all should emigrate to Iran.
StCollinson Share better photos to show the crowd.
StCollinson Can Iran be a threat to the USA ? Click on the link below to find out.
StCollinson The opposite is true!
StCollinson It's optics. Just like they attack allied ships and down US drones then jump around claiming victory. Fact is the people are so destabilized within iran through religious factions the religious leaders need to find common cause to hold it together.
StCollinson To find the truth, just take the opposite of Trump’s claims.
StCollinson The major enemy of the US is the media. They're so sick of Donald Trump, WTF is wrong with you? If Solemani had succeeded in launching the attack he already orchestrated on the Americans, you'd have had realDonaldTrump to blame for it. You're so sickening!
StCollinson
StCollinson On January 3, 2020 Donald made our world less safe. Iran WILL retaliate and ramp up research in building a nuclear weapon.
StCollinson You guys never look big picture. Yes there is momentary blowback. But eliminating a terrorist mastermind with real power bin laden and Baghdadi could ever dream of is a huge gain for future safety
StCollinson killing a person in a third country is terrorist act, trump got help from saudi arabia and israel. The biggest threats in the world are Trump and his terrorist friends Bin Selman and Netanyahu.
StCollinson Please list the atrocities Iran committed. Please Be Honest to your viewers. Thank you.
StCollinson Should be removed long time ago. This war criminal Sulaimani resposible of killings ten of thousands of innocent people in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen. Thank you Trump.
StCollinson This is an analysis? This is just a description if the immediate aftermath of a military action and the chest beating that follows it. I'm sure this journalist understands more than is put in the article why further information is omitted I can only speculate
StCollinson Iran is using CNN’s hatred towards Trump as a very easy path to spew out their propaganda.
StCollinson Important Notice
StCollinson Don't make your hatred of President Trump stand against U.S. national security. I think he did the right thing and this Iraqi parliament represents only a group of corrupt supporters of Iran.
StCollinson Yes, he saved the world from a terrorist
StCollinson Don't spend a money for war but for healthcare and college tuition. I think that's so useful
StCollinson
StCollinson There are many ways of killing a rat I disagree with the formula used ama_underwood
StCollinson This coming from an outlet that got everything wrong the last 3 years.
StCollinson We the Iraqi people have been protesting for months to be free of this parliament & all the political parties controlled by Iran, they do not represent us. Please help us be free. We need America's support. Iraqi_parliament_does_not_represent_us
StCollinson Why hasn’t the identity of the contractor been released? The thing that set this all in motion is a secret?
StCollinson We are getting tired of Trumps bully ways to do things here in Europe. Should we be afraid of getting one of our leaders killed now? Will he try to ruin one of our countries economically, or is it just countries in the middle east that gets that bully treatment?
StCollinson
StCollinson Killing Soleimani isn't making America safer at all. It's making families separate as kids and parents are being shipped off to Iran as part of a reverse quid pro quo that's being used against us.
StCollinson Just the way Putin likes it.
StCollinson Vulnerable?Soleimani was a known terrorist hiding under the Iranian flag! Pentagon blamed him & Iran-backed Iraqi militias for recent assaults on coalition bases in Iraq, including a Dec. 27 strike that killed an American civilian contractor & wounded several US & Iraqi military.
