Donuel. Do you not think the hostage taking in the US embassy in Iran and the recent attack on the US Bagdad Embassy might not have determined the level of response? This may well have created a line in the sand, requiring a short sharp shock.
You can argue the legitimacy of the response for ever but Pelosi being divisive sends entirely the wrong message to Iran. The provocations and response should not be a Democratic Republican football, especially with an election drawing ever closer. The deplorables do not welcome this sort of behaviour,as will be seen come election time.
