But there are heightened fears now of an even greater threat to Americans and American interests after Iran vowed to retaliate for the death of the Quds Force commander, hailed as a hero and now a martyr in Tehran. Critics, including members of Congress, argued that Trump's decision had endangered more lives.
, whose prime minister denounced it as a violation of their sovereignty. A push by pro-Iranian politicians in Baghdad to expel U.S. forces could gain even more steam, as Prime Minister Adil Abdul-Mahdi called for an emergency session of parliament"to take the appropriate legislative measures in a manner that preserves the dignity, security and sovereignty of Iraq."
He said that Soleimani himself, who had just arrived in Baghdad when his motorcade was bombed by the U.S. late Thursday night, described it as"a big action" -- an indication of how strong U.S. intelligence around him was. Soleimani"was actively developing plans to attack American diplomats and service members in Iraq and throughout the region," the Defense Department said in a statement.
A source told ABC News that preparations for a strike on Soleimani began last week after the U.S. contractor was killed at an Iraqi base near Kirkuk, Iraq, last Friday. The Trump administration blamed that attack on Kata'ib Hezbollah , a Shiite militia group with direct ties to Iran's Quds Force and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Trump: If I'm going down, I'm going to take everyone with me.
These people hate this president so much and what our country stands for Democrats hate our country the media hates our country hates the people who voted for Trump they call us deplorable‘s ignorant they think they’re all better than us they think they’re better than you people
I hope this opens the eyes of many Americans how these Democrats and this fake media are attacking our president for getting rid of these evil terrorist who have killed thousands and thousands of Americans and innocent civilians in other countries I just can’t believe it
Now’s the time it would be nice to have an admin whose info you can trust. Instead, I assume everyone is lying, all the time, to everyone, regardless of the topic. That’s why, in less than 24 hours, we have 3 competing rationalizations for this act of war.
Iran did countered for contact. Yet this war may be very difficult and long. How will Yankees deal with Chinesee fleet? as Third Carrier is being build? For South China see this is more than enough. QuoVadis?
Awesome!!👍🏻
