Iran has reacted with fury to the killing of its top military commander Qassem Soleimani—and has vowed to strike back. The Pentagon announced in a statement late Thursday that it had killed Soleimani in a strike “aimed at deterring future Iranian attack plans.” Iranian President Hassan Rouhani wrote in a tweet early Friday that his country will continue to fight against “terrorism and extremism” and said: “The path of resistance to U.S. excesses will continue.” Rouhani went on to warn President Trump that “Iran will take revenge for this heinous crime.” Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif said that the United States “bears responsibility for all the consequences” for the deadly airstrike. “The U.S. act of international terrorism, targeting and assassinating General Soleimani—THE most effective force fighting Daesh (ISIS), Al Nusrah, Al Qaeda et al—is extremely dangerous and a foolish escalation,” Zarif said in a tweet Thursday.
