  1.  @chilledrush9664  It's not about which countries happen to neighbour which, but about foreign soldiers making their home in sovereign countries regardless of geographical location. Besides, with their current numbers in Iraq, the Americans don't pose a military threat to Iran -- maybe they're a threat to Iranian interests, but that's another matter altogether.

  2. What's it to Iran? They're just another invading force.

  3. @synco pated And how is that relevant to this discussion? Try to stick to the topic at hand. I spent a year soldiering in Lebanon. Say, isn't that part of the Middle East?

  4. @synco pated There are 5,000 US troops left in Iraq. You can't launch a land invasion with those numbers against Iran and expect any measure of success. Besides, Iraq would have none of it.

  6.  James Bortles  Congrats, you established the oh-so obvious fact that the US presence in Iraq is a threat to Iran being in Iraq. But my premise -- to put it in words you may understand -- was that the US presence in Iraq is not a threat to Iran in Iran. To reiterate, I am opposed to any foreign forces maintaining a presence in Iraq. Again, I made no claims about Qassem being a terrorist or whatever. Your overly fertile imagination is acting up once more. I'm sure my intelligence runs circles around yours. Your poor reading comprehension and confused straw man attacks attest to that.

  7.  James Bortles  Am I disputing that Qassem Soleimani was killed by a US drone? I thought not, even if your overly fertile imagination suggests otherwise. Say, why is every other YouTube commenter a halfwit who can't hold a conversation? Tell me, because I think you're in a good position to answer that.

  8.  xOr  And what are you, "James Bortles'" sock puppet? At any rate, your mental acuity seems to match his.

  9.  James Bortles  It's interesting to note that despite your professed superior intelligence, you can't put your finger on what constitutes lack of critical thinking on my part. You've been singularly unable to refute anything I've written so far. Sadly, you're not capable of rational discourse.

  10.  James Bortles  Give over. You've been caught out and not once but twice. You're wholly incapable of rational discourse.

  11.  James Bortles  Yes, you cut and run, that's what trolls do.

  12.  @duuub227  Are you saying Qassem didn't put himself in harm's way by venturing to Iraq? Iranians fire rockets at Americans in Iraq, so they should expect the Americans to retaliate in kind.
