This is incredibly bad.

The Washington Post confirms that Qassem Soleimani has been assassinated, at Baghdad Airport in Iraq, while on a diplomatic mission from the Iranian Government under the protection of the “Sovereign” Government of Iraq. Also reported killed Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, a member of the Iraqi military.

Now I’m not going to argue these were nice guys. Qassem Soleimani was pretty much the operational head of the Iranian Irregular Forces throughout the Middle East. Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis had his Rank by courtesy, he was the head of one of the largest Shi’ite militias in Iraq.

Oh, and we admit doing it. Yay us.

What do you think will come of this?

In Iraq the choice is stark. Leave or die. The Iraqi Government is Shia and totally controlled by Iran. Agreement to deploy over. Boots and Trucks or Helicopters from the Embassy, your choice.

Helicopters might not be so easy. Anything in the Persian Gulf is a target not an asset. No reinforcements, Gulf closed.

Elsewhere? The entire Middle East will be in flames. It will be Jamal, Siffin, and Karbala all over again.

Only this time the Shia will win. Welcome to the Great Jihad. Surprising the number of so called Christians willing to perish in Islamic Armageddon.
