US President Donald Trump, during his speech in the city of Milwaukee (Wisconsin) as part of the campaign, called the murdered Iranian General Kassem Suleimani the “son of a bitch” the night before, January 14, the New York Times reported on Wednesday.
The American leader devoted most of his speech to talking about the consequences of the elimination of a senior military leader of the Islamic Republic. According to Trump, as a result of the actions of Suleymani, many young people suffered and now “they have no legs or arms.”
“He was the king of roadside bombs … A large percentage of people have no legs and arms because of this son of a bitch. And the (American) Democrats should be outraged by Suleimani’s evil crimes, and not by the decision to put an end to his miserable life, ”said the owner of the White House.
Earlier, Iranian officials indicated that Trump should appear before the International Criminal Court in The Hague for the murder of General Suleimani.
Recall, the commander of the special forces “Kods” as part of the IRGC, Kassem Suleimani, died on the night of January 3 as a result of an air strike at the territory of Baghdad International Airport. The Pentagon has confirmed that an Iranian general was killed in a U.S. air operation. The Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, on the same day ordered that he “respond firmly” to the death of the legendary Iranian general. US President Donald Trump, in turn, threatened Iran with the possibility of hitting 52 targets in the Islamic Republic if its leadership decides to give a military response to the liquidation of General Suleymani. On the night of January 8, Iran attacked with two missile bases in Iraq, on which the US military is stationed. Considering that none of the troops led by the United States suffered from these attacks, President Trump decided not to retaliate against Iranian targets.
