Yesterday, universally respected Senator Joe Lieberman provided an extraordinary op-ed in The Wall Street Journal: ``President Trump's order to take out Qasem Soleimani was morally, constitutionally, and strategically correct. . . . No American can dispute that Soleimani created, supported, and directed a network of terrorist organizations that spread havoc in the Middle East.'' In Syria, ``more than 500,000 Syrians have died.'' ``During the Iraq war, Soleimani oversaw three camps in Iran.'' These trained fighters have killed more than 600 American troops. The claim that President Trump ``had no authority to order this attack without congressional approval is constitutionally untenable and practically senseless. Authority to act quickly to eliminate a threat to the U.S. is inherent. . . . Democrats should leave partisan politics at `the water's edge' and . . . stand together against Iran and dangerous leaders like Qasem Soleimani.'' Senator Joe Lieberman tells the truth. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism, with the courage and leadership of President Donald Trump. ____________________
