Head of Iranian Quds Force Killed in US Airstrike

[Chance]

From BBC News:

General Qasem Soleimani, the head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards' elite Quds Force, has been killed by US forces in Iraq.

The Pentagon confirmed he was killed "at the direction of the president".

Gen Soleimani was being driven car at Baghdad airport with local Iran-backed militias when hit by a US air strike.

Iran's Foreign Minister, Javad Zarif, called the move "extremely dangerous and a foolish escalation".

Gen Soleimani was a major figure in the Iranian regime. His Quds Force reported directly to the country's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and he was hailed as a heroic national figure.

A spokesman for the Iranian government said the country's top security body would hold an extraordinary meeting shortly to discuss the "criminal act of attack".

A friend of mine was grievously wounded by an EPF in Baghdad in 2007. Soleimani’s death is a tangible victory for the United States, since guys with his training, organizational skills and connections to Shi’a militias in the CENTCOM AOR don’t exactly grow on trees.

Amen. Yes, this probably means Iran is going to get punchy. With that acknowledged, I'll take the win of sending this POS to his grave. F*** him.
