    So Trump orders a TERRORIST killed and all the Democrat lovers get hysterical, however when Obama ordered 542 drone strikes that killed an estimated 3,797 including 325 civilians, it was ok?
    Why is this?
    I can’t wait...

    Really?

    The holy mess clusterf##k Trump is running across the Middle East, even by his own managers and forces, hardly qualifies as a "Right Thing". Lol!

    It's not even the usually jack-up, mess in his Board meetings.

    Even Trumpers are now calling Trumps OWN hires, given with his great fanfare and praise for his wise "His Best People" are now referred as Never-Trumpers a few months later as another screwed Trump Decision!

    Even a Mad Magazine could ever come up with the crazy, deranged scenarios Trump and his nuts every day!

    Obama holds the world record for the most children killed via drone strike by a nobel peace prize winner.

    I believe he is also the only leader to hit a civilian Hospital in a drone strike.

    Add that to his Wikipedia page.

    Our cia and military wanted this done and he decided to go with it.

    That is how it works. Not that it would matter to the minds who will criticize all actions coming from the WH.

    The broken clocks of these people are never right twice a day in their world which should be noted. So hardly relevant are such minds.

    Partisan politics being placed on a higher priority than the lives of our troops.

    Republicans are just making that up!


    Really? If the CIA and the military wanted, how come they it was something they were so praised and so many in those people consider it badly timed and badly planned.

    It's ok, though. Trump's new war will probably scare the rubes to make Trump will get some higher polls and Trumps family's oil and war stocks will be shooting through the roof!

    SNIP
    In March 2018, Trump revoked an Obama executive order requiring an annual disclosure of civilian deaths resulting from drone strikes. The Bureau of Investigative Journalism also reported that the number of drone strikes ratcheted up during Trump’s first year in office, doubling in Somalia and tripling in Yemen.
    ENDSNIP

    At least with Obama, we knew the facts, distasteful though they may have been ...

    Trump is the LEAST transparent president ever...

    Also, no report in your source that Obama targeted the de-facto #2 of a country for death.

    Not the least bit sorry you had to wait..

    Mr Trump's executive order does not overturn reporting requirements on civilian deaths set for the military by Congress.(your source)

    Now if you think the CIA should not be using drones and just our military since that has over sight ( your past favorite word) i would agree with you.

    Well, I don't necessarily believe Snopes on that issue, and I'm certainly not going to believe you without a citation...

    So, here we are...

    You left out that this "#2" just coordinated an attack on a US Embassy, which is US territory, and was responsible for 17% of US casualties in Iraq, and was planning more attacks on us. Yet Obama tipped off Iran when Israel planned to take him out in 2015. Truly, the enemy within.....

    So now you dont believe Snopes funny that..
    https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-47480207

    Why would you use a source you dont believe? Hmm could it be the egg on your face?

    Now what? Deflect? Attempt to smear me? Threaten to ignore me? Perhaps run to the mods and claim i am attacking you?

    Honestly ask yourself this.. Was the Middle East more stable under the Obama administration? If you say yes, you have TOTALLY ignored the events that took place in the middle east under the Obama administration. More turmoil since the 7 day war under that administration.

    Attempt to smear me it is... So predicable you simply can not help it.. You were not wrong in total the CIA doesnt have to report **** but then again they have not been accountable for a very long time.. I tried an olive branch about just the military using drones but you ignored it..

    Obama also assassinated a foreign leader through fiat.
