Iran wants Interpol to arrest President Trump

Postby Gig em Aggies » Mon Jun 29, 2020 12:41 pm

CNN Source
Time Source

So apparently the Iranian government wants Interpol to arrest up to 36 people one who is President Trump. after they killed general Soleimani in a drone strike in Iraq earlier in the year. But in the Time source
Interpol stated Interpol later said it wouldn’t consider Iran’s request, meaning Trump faces no danger of arrest.

Most likely because the request is purely political in nature and is a violation of it's own charter stated here
Interpol maintains political neutrality and is barred by its charter from getting involved in activities of a political, military, religious, or racial nature, a spokesperson for the organization said.
Soleimani, the commander of the elite Quds Force, was killed in a US airstrike when he was visiting Iraq. Washington said the killing was justified by the general's planning of attacks against American soldiers. Tehran considers it an act of state terrorism.



So aside from the story should Interpol even consider these types of warrants that are based solely on political, religious, racial, or military in nature. Or was the general fair game as he was a enemy combatant in another country at the time of his death and therefor a warrant for another nations leader or citizens should be a nogo.

I thought Trump was able to be charged with something after he leaves office anyway? So it does seem more of a political stunt than anything else

Tell you what, the day he's out of office can we hand him over? It'd be the exact opposite of the Iran hostage crisis.

How would Pence pardon him? When Trump leaves, Pence leaves. Pence has no control over the matter.

Illegal or not, killing Soleimani was the single most productive, contributive, and beneficial thing we did for the Middle East since killing Bin Laden. Iran needs to get over themselves. Without Soleimani they're basically irrelevant now.

so your saying they were relevant before the drone strike?

Of course they were. Iran was a major player in Middle Eastern politics. Thanks to Soleimani, they've been destabilizing the region for decades. Now he's dead, all his connections are lost, and Iran is basically neutered. He was pretty much the sole reason they were ever relevant at all; with him gone, that all changes. Unless they can pull a new Soleimani out of their turbans (highly unlikely) I don't expect Iran to be relevant to Middle Eastern geopolitics for quite some time now. Maybe that will change in the near or far future, but for now they're a eunuch in a brothel.

If Interpol arrests Trump, they should also arrest Khamenei. And Xi, Kim Jong-un, Kim Yo-jong, Putin, Netanyahu, Erdogan, the Sauds, and your mom.

Iran has been politically disrespectful just like the American kills the November Solomon. Political Islam produced by America from the Middle East should be destroyed. Middle Eastern people need to wake up victory in science and modernity

It would be so fucking funny if they arrested him, but it would be justified. You can't just kill someone in a country you're not at war with without their permission no matter who you are or how terrible they are.

Imagine the rage if Iran showed up in the U.S. and killed some government heavyweight, we'd have Americans screaming for war

not really since it is political/military in nature for the arrest warrant request of which Interpol does not do they even stated they could not do it due to there own charter rules. So regardless of your dislike for Trump the arrest warrant is purely political with no actual bases to have Interpol agents arrest Trump and even if they did do you really think Congress would allow it I mean no one in there right mind would arrest the leader of the US whatso ever. If Trump did commit violations then Congress and the Supreme Court will deal with it not Interpol.

Interpol probably won't do anything about Trump's crime (or the Supreme Court), I just mean it wouldn't be wrong to arrest him.

just because Iran claims the attack was a "terrorist attack" doesn't mean it was and if you read the statement Interpol released they said that the killing was legal so no crime committed. like I said regardless of your disdain for Trump, he cant be arrested by an international police agency Congress has that authority alone.

Put yourself in their shoes for a minute and imagine the reaction if Iran showed up in the U.S. and killed an important political figure. Would you still be trying to justify it?

America hasn't done many useful or good things since WW2, but the Jewish people aren't the cause of that issue. They're just people.
