Trump on Monday added new fuel to the controversy by saying “it really doesn’t matter” whether Suleimani posed an imminent threat.😱😱
Pompeo said there was “a bigger strategy” behind the killing of Suleimani, the commander of al-Quds, Iran’s elite foreign espionage and paramilitary force.
“America now enjoys the greatest position of strength regarding Iran we’ve ever been in,” he said, pointing to the damage done to the Iranian economy by US sanctions that Trump re-imposed following his withdrawal from the nuclear deal.🤔😳
“The importance of deterrence isn’t confined to Iran,” Pompeo said. “In all cases, we must deter foes to defend freedom. That’s the whole point of president Trump’s work to make our military the strongest it’s ever been.”🤔😳
