Or was he talking about his stepfather, who would have been 9 years old during WWII...and of note, even if he would have been in the military, the Indonesian army would not be noted for their support of the alies...at that time, Netherlands East Indies was embroiled in a homebased war for their independence from the Netherlands.
Looking into the future, few if any presidents will be prior service.

Oh, sorry, I forgot about Obama's father and stepfather serving in the military when they were
toddlers.

Now let's have a look at Obama's military history.
As Commander in Chief, the only thing he didn't do was go around surrendering to any terrorist organizations, dictators and theocracies he could find, but he did the "next best thing" and supported them every way he could. The more of a threat they posed to Americans, the greater King Obama's largesse.

All the attacks on our land on 9/11 are a far cry to the attack at an embassy in a foreign country.
You folks are tools playing into the hands of Trump to turn this country into a monarch by allowing him more and more of his overreach. wake tf up
The only monarch was Obama's use of Executive orders. He created DACA, which even he said was unconstitutional. Some liberal judge is illegally keeping Trump from removing it through Executive action.

This was an act of reprisal . The President needs a letter of reprisal from congress
A letter of reprisal is what is issued to a privateer to authorize their actions. It is similar to a letter of marque. Our President does not need a letter of marque or reprisal. In fact it is his duty to act if US territory is attacked. EVERY United States Embassy IS US territory. That alone would justify him calling a strike. Add that he recieved a request for aide under an agreement with Iraq, AND that US citizens were under imminent threat of lose of life.
Trump doesn’t need to get the Democrats approval for anything. Who said that Pelosi had to offer up her spproval? Are you nuts? Everyone in Iraq/Iran would have been notified.

This is true. So far, the Democrats have done their best to sabotage everything President Trump has done, the good of the country or the safety of Americans notwithstanding. They are simply devoted to trying to cause this president to fail.
Soleimani or one of his staff would have known about the planned strike from the first CNN broadcast after the "Gang of Eight" was notified, because the leak would have been immediate.
Any leftie who denies that is a bald faced liar, period.

You have the USA FAKE NEWS!!
Here are the FACTS:
For three years, some of the best achievements of president Trump are eliminating these terrorist thugs from the world. ISIS Bagdhadi, the JV Team of Obama, and Iran's 2nd in command Soleimani. He is a terror in the Middle East, and the world, since the Gulf War. Had killed thousands of Americans, and in the process of attacking our Embassy in Iraq. Recently killed one American there.
The radical democrats and Hollywood defend Iran. They are committing treason for aiding and abetting the enemies, specially the party of Obama and all those democrats showing its support for Iran. Democrats are the party of "EVIL",.
The democrats are anti-Christ, along with Hollywood.

Yeah, you're a real true American, unfortunately only within your own corrupted mind. You're another American hater, hating half of Americans from a misguided bias, but you're forgiven. I may not like the president in office but I don't hate an entire party, I don't hate any party, I don't hate Americans, but after reading your posts you can't say that.
This you should send to the King of lies, Trump, that is his crown.
