Leid Stories--Many crises, but few solutions-- 01.07.20

Listeners sound off on the crisis that President Trump has created by ordering a drone attack in Baghdad last Friday that killed several people--among them high-profile regional military leader, Gen. Qassem Soleimani, commander of the Quds Force, an elite division of Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps, and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, deputy leader of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces. 

Tens of thousands poured into the streets of Baghdad yesterday, as an honor guard for those killed and to send a message to the United States that the killings will be avenged.

Trump claims he ordered the drone attack because the men were part of a plot that posed an "imminent danger" to the United States.

In the midst of a Senate impeachment trial against him, Trump feels  besieged, but keeps saying he has done nothing wrong, although the House is now considering additional charges against him
