Marianne Williamson on Soleimani Strike: ‘Ask How Many American Deaths WE’RE Responsible For’

Self-help guru and presidential hopeful Marianne Williamson (D) suggested on Friday that the United States needs to ask itself “how many American deaths we’re responsible for” in reaction to the elimination of top Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani, who directed terrorist proxies abroad and approved the attack on the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad this week.

“At the direction of the President, the U.S. military has taken decisive defensive action to protect U.S. personnel abroad by killing Soleimani,” the Pentagon said in a statement.

“Soleimani was actively developing plans to attack American diplomats and service members in Iraq and throughout the region,” it continued, emphasizing that the strike was “aimed at deterring future Iranian attack plans.”

Williamson, who remains in the presidential race, described the elimination of Soleimani as the “most reckless irresponsible actions ever directed by a US President.”

“Congress deserves condemnation for allowing it (NDAA) and Americans need to understand this: War with Iran would be totally disastrous,” she warned in a tweet late Thursday:

“This isn’t about whether Soleimani was a ‘good man’ any more than it was about whether Saddam was a good man. It’s about smart versus stupid use of military power,” she wrote in response to a tweet from Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC).

“Invading Iraq was criminally irresponsible & tweets like this about Iran are from the same crowd, the same insanity,” she added:

She continued:

In a tweet on Friday, Williamson urged supporters to use “truth” to “counter war fever” and suggested that the U.S. consider “how many American deaths WE’RE responsible for.”

“Use truth to counter war fever. When govt says Solmeini was responsible for American deaths in Iraq, ask how many American deaths WE’RE responsible for,” she wrote.

“When they say he was planning an eminent [sic] attack? By all means thwart the attack!” she argued. “Killing him only means new ones now on the way”:

Williamson teased that a video announcement on the latest developments in Iran is forthcoming:
