The Iraqi supreme court has issued an arrest warrant for former U.S. President Donald Trump for the assassination on Iraqi soil of Iran’s Quds Force commander, Qasem Soleimani, IraqiNews reports, citing a Baghdad news agency.
The warrant was issued on Thursday in connection both with the killing of Soleimani and of another Iraqi militia leader, chief of staff of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) in Iraq–both of whom were killed in a drone strike in January 2020 near the Baghdad airport.
That assassination operation led to Iranian strikes on the Aia Al-Assad U.S. base in Iraq.
The arrest warrant charges Trump with premeditated murder. While the warrant is clearly symbolic, a conviction of this nature carries the death penalty.
The court said the investigation into the killings was still ongoing, AP reported.

Nah, not rude at all. Thanks for mentioning the article.
Actually the surgical strike on Soleimani was in direct response to Iranian attacks on US forces. It was totally measured and appropriate.
Quite unlike the Deep State defense department strikes on empty terrorist camps that kill a few camels and their stable boys.
My answer is like the one I had for postwar Germany; we should have kept the place. The natives were never repentant and, in fact, despised us and continue to do so.
This should outrage the whole country and the government.
Yet it is Trump, so...
They yawn.
Imagine if the Serbian Supreme Court indicted Clinton, or Libyans Obama?
also the reason Hillary and Obama killed ambassador stevens in benghazi, he was going to testify to the UN to try and get some of Libya's money back for humanitarian relief funds RIGHT BEFORE THE ELECTION
More anti Trump deep state rhetoric
