Dear Editor

All right-thinking people condemn Trump’s murder of distinguished military leader Qassem Soleimani. One should remember, however, that Trump was following the precedent set by another American president, Barak Obama.

Obama, your readers will recall, also murdered a distinguished leader in the Islamic terror industry, one Osama bin Laden. We can all remember the media outrage when that particular assassination took place.

Yours

Thika Zabrik, Grey Lynn
