Id say pulling out of the Iran deal was the start of this.

Wow, even Pat Buchanan is rejecting the globalists agenda in the Middle East.
Despite my obvious political differences with him, Pat Buchanan has always struck me as one of the more honest people in politics. My two favorite parts of the article are Buchanan saying "Killing Soleimani was just. But what is just is not always wise." And Trump saying "Follow through on your demand that all U.S. troops get out, and we will insist that Baghdad repay the money we just paid on a major air base." We should probably make them pay for the wall too.

Trump is not the instigator of this.
So you want to end endless wars but you don’t want to blame the guy in charge for this ? Let’s blame Obama ? And Bush ? Really ? You expect people not to hold our president accountable for this ?
He gave Trump lots of harsh words and criticism from 8:00 to 9:51.
What he's saying is that we started the Middle East madness long before Trump, and we even saw Wesley Clark in 2007 say that we're going to take out 7 countries (watch from 9:12 to 9:45) to include Iran which we've been doing.

I get we made bad decisions in the past , we should have just got bid laden and got out . Good and bad decisions and the results going forward should fall on the current person in charge though . We may as well not criticize him at all if we can’t do that . It’s been 3 years already .

This move isn't nearly as dramatic as the media is making it out to be though. If we had fired on Iran, that would have been a huge deal. We've been doing drone strikes in Iraq for decades now. That a citizen of Iran was killed only slightly ups the severity.

Yeah Soleimani was just a regular guy.

There is a huge difference between assassinating a stateless terrorist and a state military leader in terms of potential consequences

Because I think the forum rules should be followed (at least by the mods)?
I have no desire to perma-ban koods nor anyone else in the political forum. I'm just asking that a rules be followed and we attack the argument and not the person. Koods even agreed with me that there wasn't yet any evidence of an imminent Soleimani attack, yet he made an entire post saying "Putin’s press secretary has spoken".
If you want to propose a rule change, I'm all ears.

Enlil already made edits to koods posts. Koods can change them right back if he wants to. Only an admin can break the stalemate. https://www.shroomery.org/forums/postlist.php/Board/219

I'm not nearly pro-Russian but I agree with you on many thing fal and also in regards to koods. koods has been a mean and rude boy for long now. Banstick for a few weeks and then we'll see how he behaves when he returns.

i think the whole thing is childish, especially considering half the arguments in this forum anymore are dozens of pages of “oh on post #183743 you said trump MAY be dumb, now you’re saying trump IS dumb. Interesting”
Like Jesus Christ this sub is boring enough without banning 1 out of 5 active contributors to it

I see nothing in the User Created Forums and I'm only aware of one chat page so I'm calling that one spice.
I am curious about the location of "The Lodge" as seen when one mouse's (mice? lol) over karode13's mod tag in his posts.
It's not even listed on the Information about Moderators page that lists which forums each mod oversees.
I seem to recall that there might have been a forum called 'the Lodge' back before the Pub or OTD were created, but really not sure.

 I'll take your word for it, but I'm only seeing 1 sub forum there, the Microscopy Forum.
