Iran has identified 36 people involved in the US assassination of General Qassem Soleimani and will seek their arrest through Interpol channels, media reports said. The list of suspects is topped by President Donald Trump.

The names of the suspects in the high-profile murder of Iran’s elite Quds Force commander have been relayed to Interpol by Tehran’s chief prosecutor Ali Alghasi-Mehr, Iranian media said on Monday. The official called the killing a “murder” and a “terrorist act.”

President Donald Trump is at the top of the list, and his prosecution will be pursued even after his term is over.

Soleimani was killed on January 3 during a visit to Iraq, when his car was hit by a US airstrike. The Trump administration justified the attack, which also killed a prominent Iraqi commander and several other people, saying the Iranian general was plotting attacks on US soldiers.

The popular general received a hero’s funeral in Iran, with millions taking to the streets on the days of the ceremony. Soleimani is credited with organizing and supporting Shiite militias, which fought against the terrorist group Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) in Iraq and Syria. He was also considered to be a key figure in Tehran’s confrontation with US influence in the Middle East.

The assassination lead to a surge in hostility toward the US in Iraq. Its parliament even voted to have all foreign troops removed from Iraqi territory. The instruction is yet to be implemented by the Iraqi government, however.

Trump ordered the assassination of Soleimani amid a period of increased tension in Iraq. The situation escalated after several attacks on bases hosting US forces and those held by Iran-backed Iraqi militias in what appeared to be a cycle of tit-for-tat retaliations.

Days before the killing of Soleimani the US embassy in Baghdad was ransacked by a crowd of protesters, who stopped short of attacking the staff of the diplomatic mission.

But wait oo, what will they do for retaliating?

They didnt place a bounty? Comedians everywhere.

Joke of the year

It is a valid legal precedent to issue a warrant for Trump or sue US govt.
They killed another country's government official in a foreign country without having declared war.
Very illegal and there will be consequences. Iran has time on its hands, Trump has just till November.

This is why governance is for serious minded folks who consult widely and not for insecure, septuagenarian business men who want to show they are tough all the time

I laugh...terrorist group wants to arrest the most powerful president, government & military in the world with interpol that's also at their disposal. This must be the joke of the century. It should enter guinness book of record.

In a lawful and just world, Trump would be arrested and prosecuted immediately after finishing his term and losing his immunity because he was directly responsible for the murder of a country's official on diplomatic mission to another country. He not only committed murder, he also violated the law protecting diplomats all over the world.
But we all know that the US is a lawless country that twist the law to kill and bully other countries while threatening and punishing institutions of justice when the same laws it twist is applied to it, just like they sanctioned the judges of ICC for investigating the war crimes US and Israel committed.
The same country that placed sanctions on Russia for annexing Crimea and almost went to war because of it is the country telling the world that it is solely Israel's business whether they want to annex the Jordan Valley or not.
This arrest warrant will test the integrity of interpol whether it is just another organization used in bullying weak countries to submit to it.
The number of international laws, treaties and deals Trump has broken will put the next president in a very difficult situation because most of these deals took decades to sign by past president only for Trump to dismantle them because he felt they aren't favorable to US. Many governments around the world will be very cautious of making deals with the US because they have shown that they can cancel deals and treaties at will.
Let us not also forget that the US has illegally kept it's troops in Iraq 5 months after the people and government of Iraq had told them to leave.

Iranian weed is the best

A rogue nation that shot down a civilian jet

You know the other country that intentionally shot down a civilian jet and refused to apologize or compensate? The US. Does that not make the US also a rogue state. Some will just come online and be saying their mind with the confidence of someone stating fact.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_Air_Flight_655
US plotted a coup to remove Iran's democratically elected president and impose a monarch on Iranians.
US stole and froze all of Iran's assets outside of the country and also placed sanctions on the country's economy when Iranians decided to liberate themselves
US funded and even went as far as providing Saddam chemical weapons when Iraq invaded Iran.
US shot down a civilian plane belonging to Iran killing all 290 on board and refused to apologize
US violates Iran's airspace with impunity regularly
Yet Iran is the rogue state.

The retaliation was in line with international rule of engagement. The killing of Soleimani is an act of war it contravenes international law. Remember Iran invoked article 51 of the UN charter citing self defence. By retaliating Iran passed a strong message that any attack against her won't go without consequences and i believe America got it by not carrying out further attacks.

God bless you Sir.
International laws are for weak countries. I just pity weak and helpless African countries
Any country that does not have power in this present world order won't survive. Now they are accusing China of repealing Hong Kong autonomous status when they themselves have violated the international laws hundred times over.

Britain seized Chagos Island from Mauritius in 1965 and evicted the Chagosians even after intl laws had been in existence, last year February UN ruled and ordered Britain to return the Island back to Mauritius within 6 months but Britain refused, it's over a year now. America is the one taking side with Britain because America has a military base there. Now they want China and Russia to comply with international law

I'm just happy for Russia and China. I still weep for Africa cause we'll remain subservient to these western powers. Any country that does not have power in this present world order won't survive.

Iran a rouge nation? What will you call America and Israel the rogue twins who sponsor terrorism and destabilize the peace of other countires. Tell your America that they will never control Iran's oil the way they did under the Shah. The 1979 Iranian revolution will continue to be one of their biggest regrets of the 20th century.

Na mumu dey worry dem.

Trapping:
Na mumu dey worry dem.

You are not getting the message Iran is passing. They are trying to expose the hypocrisy of America and her fellow western bullies. Let's say it was an African country who did what U.S did by striking the government official of another country what do you think would happen? Won't ICC file a case against the African/weak country? Iran knows no country would try America for its war crimes they just wanted to expose the hypocrisy of the western institutions set up by the west to witch hunt and bully weak countries.

This people get audasity shaa
