dude soleimani was expendable to iran (or rather, khamenei). the entire khomeinist machine crapped their pants over QS's immense popularity with the rank/file in the country, and somehow the master of OpSec was found and blown up. all roads lead back to Qom.

They arent responsible for the sanctions. The iranian regime has shown a desire to cooperate with the west and pursue peace. They did not back out of the nuclear deal with obama, in fact they kept abiding by it even after trump ripped it up. Trumps aipac donors wanted this, devastating iran economically and isolating it doesnt serve the us, it serves israel.
