Iran & The Left

I'm always amazed at how the socialist Democrat left and America's enemies so often seem to have the same talking points.  The two main centers of anti-American propaganda are leftist American universities and the Chinese Communist Party in Beijing.  Now we've got another example. 

Yesterday, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi threatened that if Donald Trump and Mike Pompeo are not put on trial and executed for ordering the strike against Iran's terrorist mastermind Gen. Qassem Soleimani, Iran will strike back.  Raisi said:

"If Trump and Pompeo are not tried in a fair court for the criminal act of assassinating General Soleimani, Muslims will take our martyr's revenge.  The aggressor, murderer, and main culprit -- the then-president of the United States -- must be tried and judged under the law of retribution, and God's ruling must be carried out against him.  Otherwise, I will tell all U.S. leaders that without a doubt the hand of revenge will emerge from the sleeve of the Muslim nation."

Soleimani had the blood of U.S. troops on his hands, and Donald Trump, Mike Pence and Mike Pompeo took him out.  Bringing that murderer to justice was a tremendous accomplishment for peace in the Middle East.

But notice the confluence of goals.  Iran wants to put Trump in prison, just like Pelosi, Schumer and the White House, who also want Donald Trump in prison.  Iran regularly calls Trump, Pence and Pompeo war criminals.  So do many American leftists. 

The Biden/Harris regime is currently negotiating a new nuclear deal with Iran.  Maybe this is one of their bargaining chips.  I'm joking, but anything is possible with the crazy left these days.
