Saying Iran was “fully responsible” for attack on U.S. Embassy in Iraq, Trump ordered 750 U.S. soldiers there + 3,000 more prepared for possible deployment. HERE WE GO AGAIN. Be very clear: Saddam Hussein kept Iran at bay & with our invasion of Iraq we created this entire mess

How would any American feel if we woke up to read that France, or Japan, or North Korea let's say, "ordered 3,000 troops deployed to the United States." Like, whuh...?

Our image of Commander-in-Chief must change; it shouldn't be "Cowboy in Chief" or "Brute Force Officer in Charge." That's the dangerous image that took us to where we are. We need someone who recognizes the dynamics of a perpetual war machine & understands the dynamics of peace.

We had the "Gender Neutral in Chief" (Obama)... that didn't work very well.

Lot of folks thinking that walking around silently with a big stick is the way to go. They've been brainwashed since high school history with these 19th century imperialist notions. Our species nearly ran the 20th into the ground & here we are, 2020, still talking the same smack.

While I do not disagree that we need to attempt different approaches, your example is ridiculous. At what point have we attacked embassys here on US soil like this? @marwilliamson please be better than this. Dont make a mockery of yourself. That is what @CNN is for

So just out of curiosity, how would you have handled the attack on our embassy?
