It was just not a drone strike by the US, but attacks by the UK and French airforces that did the real damage. This was a mission by the whole of NATO and not just the USA.I realize the rebels did the actual killing, but the US played a near identical role leading up to the death with a drone strike.
U.S. Predator drone was involved in the airstrike on Gaddafi's convoy in the moments before his death. An anonymous US official subsequently described their policy in hindsight as "leading from behind".
Basically, the US did the grunt work in catching him, then stepped back so the rebels could beat him, sodomize with a bayonet and shoot several times. Plus, this was no general, this was their leader.
But Reagan, Bush with Saddam, Obama with Gaddafi, all I'm saying is this is nothing new, and Trump boasting about Soleimani is no different than Obama taking pride in killing Osama bin Laden.
When Obama announced the death of Bin Laden he said "Today's achievement is a testament to the greatness of our country and the determination of the American people."
Trump is clearly more about sensationalizing events, while Obama took a more sullen stance. But both took out very dangerous threats respectively.
Not sure why the blame just goes to the Obama administration rather than the whole of NATO, when the right post misleading propaganda. El Qaeda and ISIS Terrorist killings cannot be disputed as they are a threat globally, so we should commend everyone that takes down their leaders who promote hatred and death to mankind.
