US, Israeli Flags Burnt As Thousands Mourn Iranian General In Tehran by valentineuwakwe(op): 6:58pm On Jan 04, 2020
US and Israeli flags were set alight in Iran’ s capital Saturday as thousands mourned the loss of top military commander Qasem Soleimani , a day after he was killed by American forces .
“ We are with you ,” they chanted as they waved their hands in unison during the outpouring of grief at a rally in Tehran ’s Palestine Square , an AFP correspondent reported .
Soleimani was killed on Friday in a US air strike outside Baghdad international airport that shocked the Islamic republic and sparked fears of a new war in the Middle East. He was 62.
One of Iran’ s most popular public figures , Soleimani was head of the Quds Force that oversaw the foreign operations of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
Iran’ s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei vowed “ severe revenge ” and declared three days of mourning on Friday following the news of his death.
At Saturday ’s rally in Tehran , men held up placards that called for “ revenge ” and black -clad women clutched portraits of Soleimani and Khamenei .
One man wearing a mask climbed onto a stone monument holding burning US and Israeli flags as others chanted “ Death to America” .
“ Our response will definitely be beyond launching some missiles or destroying some American bases ,” said Milad Najafi , one of the mourners .
“ In fact , I think our revenge will be the annihilation of Israel, ” the student told AFP .
Another mourner , Ali Gholinam, paid tribute to Soleimani as “ the greatest man we had” .
“ They took him not only from Iran but from the ‘ Resistance Front ’, ” he said , referring to Iran’ s allies in parts of the region including the Palestinian territories .
“ The ‘ Resistance Front’ members are now mourning this great man, ” he told AFP.
“ I don’ t know what the response could be, but whatever it may be, it must be proportionate. ”
Soleimani ’s remains are due to be returned to Iran on Sunday ahead of ceremonies in Ahvaz, Tehran, Mashhad and Qom .
The slain general is expected to be laid to rest in his hometown of Kerman on Tuesday .

RIP Soleiman.

Some cowardly bigot thinks the only way to divert attention from his failures was to kill a more enigmatic and famous man.

Your failures will catch with you Grumpy.

They are fighting a lost battle. How are they going to annihilate Israel when the whole of Middle East sunni and Sunni world won't support them?

Wait ... I thought President Trump said Sulemani was hated and feared by the Iranian people ?

Bring the American troops back home, leave Middle East to deal with their own problems... a lot of mess has been caused already.

Isreal can defend itself, Saudi is wealthy enough to afford the most sophisticated weapons out there.
