Iranian-Canadians dance, cheer and celebrate death of top general in Iran

TORONTO — Several dozen Iranian-Canadians danced and cheered in Toronto on Friday as they celebrated the death of a top general in their home country.

An American airstrike authorized by U.S. President Donald Trump killed Gen. Qassem Soleimani, the head of Iran's elite Quds Force, Thursday in Baghdad, Iraq. Iran's supreme leader vowed a "harsh retaliation."

But for those who showed up to dance in a square in north Toronto Friday afternoon, Soleimani's death marked what they hoped would be a re-birth for Iran. Chants of "regime change in Iran by the people of Iran" and "we support uprising in Iran" rang out at the rally.

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

The Iranians want regime change.  But Trump is having trouble with his foreign policy decision already.  Because he has promised to bring troops home from the ME.  You can't just target one person in this terrorist organization and think it is going to make a difference.  I think the same is true of ISIS.  Although Trump says they are destroyed they are not a terrorist group of one.

I think we will see that even Trumps own base is divided over this.  Today Tucker Carlson trashes the President.

Says that this was the right timing because Iran already has problems.  But I would say Trump cannot rule out further actions considering Iran.  Otherwise I doubt that it will have any lasting affect.  Probably only increase problems for us.
