Sorry Mark, I ain’t buying that.
Of course you Trumpers will just shout "LIE LIE LIE LIE LIE" when anyone says something you don't want to hear. Stalker believes Fox News absolutely, implicitly, but he doesn't believe any more legitimate news sources because those sources don't spout Trump-favorable propaganda.
The Wall Street Journal isn't exactly a liberal-leaning news source, though, so you Trumpers should consider "buying" that. What is your reason for not believing it other than you don't want to?
Read their latest several articles re Trump and Iran over the last several days. Initially, they were going rah-rah-rah for Trump. Lately, they've been somewhat more critical of his decisions and the erratic nature of his justification for them. I don't think you can honestly say they're showing any bias or failing to tell the truth (except that they might be somewhat biased for Trump).
The real lie is Trump's assertion that an attack (presumably orchestrated by Soleimani) was "imminent." Of course, he had no way of knowing exactly what the guy's plans were. But Trump has to lie about that, because otherwise, his failure to brief Congress was that much more egregious. To say nothing of the fact that he really didn't have the authority to conduct the assassination.
