And that’s what this was all about.
I suspect Iran isn’t going to be attacking anything U. S. for a while.
One citizen gets a scratch and there will be HELL to pay, and they know it.
Mission accomplished.
The fanatic Mullah dictators of Iran have no problem
sending out their deceived nobody Iranians
to fight and die for them. But when one of their
prominent inner circle officials is suddenly, violently
and publicly blown to bits by the "The Great Satan", they
have a change of heart about attacking the USA.
They now know that each of them has a big target painted
on their backs and they can all end up like Soleimani. That
concentrates the mind greatly. They'll wait for better times
to attack the USA.
(They're hoping another Obama comes along.)
