This is a violation of international law, targeting civilian leaders. It has rarely been done in the past
B.S. These are not civilians. They are the authorities in charge of a rogue state who sponsor terror attacks around the globe. They command the army. Who would you go after?

Would it help if the US commander shouted: Mojtaba Khamenei, you magnificent bastard, I read your book.
Sorry!
He is not a civilian...
He is an Islamic terrorist, and the whole city needs to be destroyed, if necessary, to kill the filthy, evil bastard...
Thank goodness you were not alive during WWII...
Ok, you stated a fact.
Lets condider why they decided this was a situation where it was deemed necessary to violate international law.
Why reasons do you think they had, in this case, to do this?
“This is a violation of international law, targeting civilian leaders.”
If a P-51 pilot saw Hitler, the P-51 would simply had to fly on?
Civilian war leaders are more complicit in war than civilians making big bucks in arms factories.
War is hell.
Trump needs to eliminate all the mullahs. All of them. Have you not read the Koran? Have you not read the Constitution of 1979 in Iran enshrining terrorism? If eliminating every terrorist leader of Iran is a violation of international law, then international law is terrorist law.
Read their Constitution - Iranian leaders of any ilk are terrorists, not civilians.
Wake up from your TV Propaganda and Read.
You know nothing.
As far as the targeting of political leaders goes ... nixing that policy might result in far fewer wars.
“This is a violation of international law, targeting civilian leaders.”
A. Please post a link to the codification of “International Law” ...
B. Please post a link to the specific portion of the “International Law” codas that prohibits “targeting” civilian leaders, including the penalty for violation ...
“This is a violation of international law, targeting civilian leaders.”
There’s no such thing.

Guess you missed World War 2 history.
You’re nuts - not being in battle garb (even their “battle garb” looks like their everyday crap) doesn’t make them “civilians” - they are active combatants and fair game.
“International law”
Oooh! Scary! 😆
