High-level Popular Mobilization Forces leader Taleb Abbas Ali al-Saedi was shot dead late on Saturday in Karbala, a city about 62 miles southwest of Baghdad.
Local media reported that al-Saedi was 'assassinated' by unknown gunmen, but no further details about the shooters were immediately available.
Al-Saedi was the commander of the Karbala Brigades, a unit within the Iran-backed Shiite PMF umbrella group.

The unit was accused of killing protestors.
So... plenty of suspects.

Trump said they had missed a second target located elsewhere when they hit Soli. Wonder if this was it. Also wouldn’t be surprised if that’s a complete dumb suggestion based on some factoid I’m not aware of :-)

Let’s spread the story he has eating a ham sandwich and was killed by a pimp at a gay house of prostitution.

Go with it. I’m too much of a refined gentleman to volunteer such things. Still you have a good idea.

I can only hope. I used to know an Iranian-American who owned a bowshop in Arlington, TX. He hated islam and mullahs and....
Very decent feller. We drank beer and ate wild hog chops behind the shop during their customer appreciation days before each Christmas back in the early 2000’s. It was called Red Sand Archery on Cooper next to the Redwing Shoe place.
