Review the propaganda of our past wars and understand that this is what they do with every war to get people on board with the insanity of sending their own kids off to die for them. It's not new. Read War Is A Racket by Major General Smedley Butler: https://www.ratical.org/ratville/CAH/warisaracket.html
Understand that "both sides" agitate for war and/or violent manipulation of foreign countries. If you're upset that Russia interferes with our elections, look in the mirror. We do much worse and have done for decades. Defense contractors figure prominently in the investment portfolios of representatives of both parties.

You will eventually see where all of their individual biases cancel out, leaving you with a small, relatively accurate "nut" of information that's fairly close to the truth.
If you restrict yourself to (say) the US-only news sources, or the China-only news sources you have nobody to blame but yourself for your being badly misinformed.
It's not propaganda to say "yes, he probably deserved it".
It is however dangerous that this was done, because of how it destabilises american relations with Iran.
Why not be honest?
I'm not quite sure I buy this. When you say that he probably deserved it, you're accomplishing only one thing: furthering the ideological point that the US was justified in their assassination. You're furthering a political idea that the US is doling out justice by getting this "bad man" who "was genocidal and to blame for tens of thousands of Iraqi ... killings," all while ignoring the hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilian murders at the Americans hands. How is it not propaganda for you to be intentionally muddying the waters through selective criticism?
That doesn't take away from the fact that someone just drone-bombed a guy who was trying to stir shit and wage genocide.
Other than that I have no claims in your bullshit.
You're just repeating what has been hammered in your head for years. This is the power of propaganda: you say things that sound perfectly obvious to you except in fact you don't know- and that's why instead of telling us clearly what you think he was going to do you resort to expletives.
