The Iranian general was a horrible man. He is responsible for a lot of death and suffering around the world.
The world is a better place now that he's gone. He will have to justify his life and he won't be able to lie or deceive. He will have to take proper responsibility for his life and it won't be pretty.
The problem is Iran. They will retaliate. They have said very loudly that they will. They will also make that general a martyr. Which isn't good for the world. The damage that will cause will last for generations. Which will make this world a lot less safe for everyone.
I was thinking as I read the following article, what is there to stop Iran from interfering with our coming election? What is there to stop them from going on a year long cyber campaign to prevent trump from being elected? What is there to stop them from hacking our election systems?
I know a bill was passed in the House to make our elections more safe from hacking but it went to the senate to die along with over 200 other needed pieces of legislation. I don't know if that legislation addresses a cyber campaign on line.
I don't want any foreign nation interfering with our elections to elect any candidate. Americans should be electing our government. Not a foreign nation.
russia has showen that it's possible to sway people on line through social media to get election results they want. There is nothing in place to stop Iran from doing the same thing.
Iran has already appointed the general's replacement. Killing them isn't going to stop someone else just taking their place.
Iranian authorities appoint replacement, vow retaliation for killing of General Soleimani
