You remember!
Yeah I just heard.
Did I just read right? Was that a us drone strike?
US Officials have only confirmed they carried out a strike and not who was targeted/killed.

The simple answer to your question is "yes".

lots of events have an initial report that ends up being the only thing people remember despite later discoveries and evidence

certainly possible that it is as reported now, also possible it is an intentionally false first report like so often is the case

Iran will have to retaliate in some way. Here we go, I guess. I hate wars.
Yep
Droning solameini is a major deal.
For sure it was authorized from way way up.
They probably had enough of him and Hezbollah fucking around in Iraq.
And that was it. The chance to drone him came. And the white house pulled the trigger.

True that he's responsible for a lot of terrorism outside of Iran, and the death of thousands of Americans? Reading Twitter. Who knows what to believe.

Death of thousands of Americans?
I doubt the thousands but many for sure when you know that Iranians backed Shia insurgency way back after the invasion of Iraq.
He was for sure behind a lot of stuff.
The chance to off him came and they seized it

A lot of tweets saying "good riddance", this guy was behind the killings of thousands of Americans in Iraq & Syria, saying he was leading terrorist plots, etc. Like I said, I dont know how true it is. Curious what people here know about the guy.

who'd be dumb enough to want to work in the Iraqi embassy? lets throw more rocks at the hornet's nest and see if they simmer down some. we need a reason to bomb the bejesus out of someone so we can unify the country.

He was the senior-most military leader in Iran who led the QUDS force - the foreign military activity force of the IRG. So all Iranian military action in other countries - direct or indirect - was basically authorized by him.

He was so powerful that he didn't answer directly to the President, only to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei (Iran is a unique mix of democracy and Islamic theocracy whereby the President is elected but the Supreme Leader is not).

Assassinating Soleimani is like Iran assassinating our Defense Secretary, but bigger.
