The U.S. Strike On Iranian General Is An Act Of War!

The strike on Iran's top military commander Qassem Soleimani is an act of war. His passing will force Iran's military to strike at U.S. forces.
Tensions are rising in the Middle East.

The far-white agitators are often on this "Let's blame Iran for everything in the Middle East" bandwagon. Let's help an embattled president and prime minister achieve victory by getting on board with another endless war with a potential nuclear power.

Donald J. Trump ordered a strike on the Iranian top military leaders wasn't a smart move. The United States may have committed a war crime.

Qassem Soleimani, the head of Iran's Quds Force and an elite of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard has been killed in Iraq. He was killed while en route to Baghdad International Airport.

The Department of Defense released a statement from the Pentagon.

At the direction of the President, the U.S. military has taken decisive defensive action to protect U.S. personnel abroad by killing Qassem Soleimani, the head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard-Quds Force, a U.S. designated Foreign Terrorist Organization.

General Soleimani was actively developing plans to attack American diplomats and service members in Iraq and throughout the region. General Soleimani and his Quds Force were responsible for the deaths of hundreds of American and coalition service members and the wounding of thousands more. 

He has orchestrated attacks on coalition bases in Iraq over the last several months - including the attack on December 27th - culminating in the death and wounding of additional American and Iraqi personnel. General Soleimani also approved the attacks on the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad that took place this week.

This strike was aimed at deterring future Iranian attack plans. The United States will continue to take all necessary action to protect our people and our interest wherever they are around the world.

U.S. Tomahawk missiles obliterated vehicles carrying Soleimani and his entourage of the Iraqi Shiite forces.
Iran's president Hassan Rouhani and Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warn the U.S. that retaliation is coming.
Iran's PMF deputy commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis was also among those killed in the strike.

This is the potential for a global war within the Middle East. Here in the United States, most Americans couldn't find the Islamic Republic of Iran on a map.

Trump conducted this strike while at his Mar-a-Largo resort in Florida. He then posted on social media the American flag like it's supposed to be a victory lap.



Iran called the strike an act of "international terrorism."

The spiritual leader and head of state Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that "the United States will experience harsh revenge." He added "criminals" will pay the price for the death of Soleimani.



Iran ambassador Javad Zarif condemned the United States for this action. He said that this was an act of terrorism. He said that killing Soleimani thwarts efforts to stop the Islamic State, Al Nusrah and al-Qaeda.




Iran has called these groups foreign terrorists and have vowed to stop them as well.

Zarif said this was a foolish decision by the U.S. and may force Iran to leave the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

In 2015, Barack Obama made a call to Iran's President Hassan Rouhani to work out a deal to halt the Iranian government from developing nuclear energy that could make weapons. In return the U.N would release sanctioned money to the Iranian government if they would cease any attempts of developing nuclear weapons.

In 2017, Trump had decided to pull out of the JCPOA. He also pushed for more sanctions against Iran.

Congress was notified of the attack at the time of 8:40pm. The strikes were done in the broad daylight.

Soleiman was leaving a flight from Damascus, Syria to meet with Iraqi leaders when his vehicle was struck by American missiles.

The Iraqi government hasn't issued a statement on the actions done by the U.S. but it will certainly condemn this and order Americans out of the country.

Barham Salih hasn't come out against the strike but he's stressed that U.S. presence has waned.

This strike also means that Iran's elite espionage will target Americans and may try targeting political leaders and military officials. They will also plot an attack on Israeli officials as well.
