@mcnado Oh absolutely — imagine that. Adults capable of holding two thoughts at once. Wild concept.
You can think Khomeini was a terrible human being and still believe a U.S. president shouldn’t unilaterally assassinate foreign leaders without congressional authorization. That’s not hypocrisy — that’s understanding that moral judgment and constitutional limits are two different conversations.
It’s almost like complex geopolitical issues require… complexity. Shocking, I know.

This may shock some folks, but it is OK to simultaneously say that Khomeini had it coming and is a piece of shit who deserved what he got, and to say that a US president shouldn’t be assassinating foreign leaders without authorization from Congress.
