Soleimani was an enemy of the United States. That’s not a question.
The question is this - as reports suggest, did America just assassinate, without any congressional authorization, the second most powerful person in Iran, knowingly setting off a potential massive regional war?

War is a class conflict, too. The rich and powerful who open war escape the consequences of their decisions. It’s not their children sent into the jaws of violence.
It is often the vulnerable, the poor, & working people -who had little to no say in conflict - who pay the price.

People in Iran are just that: people. They have families, hopes, dreams, and little say in their government. Why would we punish them for that by making it harder for them to get vaccines?
I strongly disagree with the Biden Administration on their global vaccine rollout. We should help our allies first instead of letting a third party decide where vaccines should go.
Since there are not enough vaccines, should we help India or Iran? We should help India first.
