Iran’s Suleimani will be viewed the same way as Al-Baghdadi: Pompeo
2019-04-10
[ALMASDARNEWS] In light of the U.S. designating the Islamic Revoluationary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a "terrorist organization", Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said this week that Iran’s commander of its Quds Force (IRGC unit), Major General Qassem Suleimani
, will be viewed the same way as the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS/ISIS/IS/ISIS) His Supreme Immensity, Caliph of the Faithful and Galactic Overlord, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi
...the head of ISIS, or what remains of it, and a veteran of the Abu Graib jailhouse. Looks like a new messiah to bajillions of Moslems, like just another dead-eyed mass murder to the rest of us. So far he has been killed at least four times, though not yet by a stake through the heart...
"He’s a terrorist. Qassem Suleimani has the blood of Americans on his hands, as do the forces he leads," Pompeo told Fox News.

"America is determined each time we find an organization, institution or an individual that has taken the lives of individuals, it is our responsibility to reduce that risk," he added.

Suleimani has been an active presence in several Middle East countries, including Syria and Iraq.

The Iranian general has often traveled to both Iraq and Syria to not only rally troops, but also to implement battle plans and meet with military commanders.

The last time Suleimani was publicly pictured was during his meeting with Syrian Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad
Before going into the family business Pencilneck was an eye doctor. If he'd stuck with it he'd have had a good practice by now...
and Iranian President Hassan Rouhani.
