Additionally, there was a need to change the news cycle. I'm not sure there's any more complex reason than that. I would be immensely surprised if there were, honestly.
You mean you don't think the killing of Suleimani was the end result of serious consultations between Trump and his staff, with due consideration being given to the impact on regional stability?
